  2. Impressive, now “True-Dope-ia” can add corrupting the youth to his resume…only unlike Socrates it will actually be true.
    When he discovers his conscience, I’m sure he’ll let us all know.
    As if there aren’t enough perpetrators trying to seduce the youngsters into the wayward lifestyle…

    @sliiiiip No. Busy asking Justin Trudeau why he can talk to school kids about legalizing drugs. He couldn’t answer. pic.twitter.com/7VEz6Raf5X”
    Maybe they should poll the Hell’s Angels on why they are allowing “True-Dope-ia” to hustle in on their action. That should make interesting reading…
    Awaiting the Tweed pot Co. vs Hell’s Angels ‘negotiations’ regarding profit splitting with the LIEberal brown envelope brigade.
    But of course…if the youth are too drugged up to know that the government is ripping them off; they’ll never complain.
    A ‘virtuous circle’ of corruption, what could possibly go wrong with a group of children that are already at risk with endemic native alcohol/drug abuse problems?

  3. Two things strike me about this:
    1. The Rifici business goes directly to the point of Terry Glavin’s column that Mark R linked to at 10:43 a.m. in yesterday’s “Oh, Shiny Pony!” thread. Glavin’s point in that column is that the China comments were not a gaffe at all, but rather a ham-handed seque into, or cover story for, the relationship between Chinese officialdom and important elements of the clientelist support structure of the Liberal Party. The column speaks for itself, and those who have not read it should make a point of doing so, particularly in light of this new information.
    Crony capitalism as policy: why am I not surprised? Sort of makes a mockery out of his concern about the middle class, and about the environment, and about trying to keep marijuana out of the hands of children, doesn’t it?
    2. In this last regard, he specifically told us that his policy on changing the legal status of marijuana was intended to keep marijuana out of the hands of children. So why, exactly, would he go around speaking to junior high school students and/or First Nations’ students about the subject? Without making a definitive judgement just yet (although it seems a bit suspicious that he wouldn’t directly answer Ms. Sexton’s question about his having made any remarks at all), I would like to know precisely what he said: is there a transcript, or (horrors!) an iPhone video? That could be delicious.

  4. So just replace Tweed Pot Co with Enbridge Pipelines and ask yourself if the CFO of the Cons party owned Enbridge Pipelines wouldnt the press be asking lots and lots of questions about Conservative party support for pipelines?
    This doesnt need to be a moral issue surrounding legalization of pot, it can be a corruption and self interest question.
    As for why he is talking to jr high students that may simply be who JT identifies with on a outlook basis. Same Obama tactic anyway, its the way to get lots of adoration without nasty questions.

  5. Exactly Stephen. This will totally fly under the radar of his adoring MSM because as a group they are opposed to pipelines with their accompanying resource development and approve of legalizing pot.
    JT identifying with jr high school students? The content and the way he makes public policy announcements or comments would suggest that he has never progressed beyond that age level. My fifteen year old granddaughter has more intellectual capacity than JT.

  6. I have no idea who Suzanne Sexton is, but she seems to be another Kate, and one who likes to confound liberals.
    Liberals get upset when women do not drink their koolaid all the time.

  7. Stephen “So just replace Tweed Pot Co with Enbridge Pipelines and ask yourself if the CFO of the Cons party owned Enbridge Pipelines wouldnt the press be asking lots and lots of questions about Conservative party support for pipelines?”
    That’s a strange analogy. Don’t all parties want the safest and most environmentally responsible way of transporting oil? All the numerous Marxist parties demand is environmental responsibility and in case no one has noticed we are into years of seemingly perpetual environmental reviews and have yet to see one come up negatively.
    You are making the Liberal Party mistake of believing their own lies.

  8. Here is the reason,,That women who live in ivory towers shouldn’t blow Stones. This dope personifies dope in alll aspects.

  9. All great comments here. Not sure if anyone has made the connection but when JT burped out that flakey China comment I was reminded of his connection to Maurice Strong.
    Time for a review of Strong’s China connection, and that he is only 2 degrees of seperation away from JT via Bob Rae…Strong’s nephew.
    And Sexton didn’t get the memo…don’t ask Junior the tough questions.

  10. I thought the China comment was a way to move into how great the environment would be if you were a dictatorship and could shut down the oil industry. He was about to talk about the Chinese solar industry when he realized what he said. His audience was inner city women in Toronto, they are all against pipelines and have solar panels on their houses.

  11. Exactly, bluetech. I’m sure Justin Trudeau’s up to his yin yang in Maurice Strong’s China. Here’s what I posted on November 10:
    From Glavin’s article:
    For decades, the Trudeau family’s faction of the Liberal party has maintained a sleazy and cozy relationship with Beijing’s billionaire parasites, and these same Communist Party princelings, bloated from the slave labour of China’s masses, are abandoning China in droves and decamping into the tonier neighbourhoods of Canada’s cities. Nothing would please them more than having the Dauphin moving into the Langevin Block.
    Mr. Glavin was restrained in not having mentioned Maurice Strong, the man the Rae boys, and perhaps even The Toddler, called “Uncle Mo.” Uncle Mo’s living in Beijing and has been for years since his involvement in the Oil for Food scandal. The Sidewinder Report also paints a lurid picture of the Chretien Librano’s, let’s say, encouragement of Chinese involvement in Canadian institutions.
    Today’s comment: The connection between the Librano$ and China is deep and disturbing. As you point out, bluetech, The Toddler’s comments about admiring the Chinese dictatorship was no random gaffe. He believes it — and I’m Strongly convinced that he and the Liberal$ are getting filthy rich off it.

  12. Sorry for moving off topic. I am a persona non grata at the Red Star.
    Apparently John Tory has been designated as the Progressives Candidate for Toronto Mayor in 2014. Can’t imagine why they believe this P.C. light weight is going to be accepted by the Ford Nation.
    Ordinary people are winning in the smear campaign if the Toronto elites are only able to select John Tory as their champion.Cheers;

  13. I wonder if people who agree with Trudeau on the legalization and “control” of pot have considered what the consequences would be? Do they really want the government controlling the production, advertising, sale and use of marijuana? Have they considered the consequences as regards trade relations with that insane “war on drugs” nation to the south of us?
    In an ideal world legalization makes sense, to me anyways. But we live in a real world where laws have consequences. Trudeau, like most liberals, lives in that ideal world where intentions matter more than results and consequences don’t matter.

  14. I think those on the right, progressives or conservatives had better be very careful who they vote for or they’ll end up with Chow and that would be a real disaster. Their campaign needs to be simple, even if Ford does run their slogan needs to be ABC/Anybody But Chow.

  15. Scar: “Don’t all parties want the safest and most environmentally responsible way of transporting oil?”
    Perhaps they do, but the NDP apparently thinks the most environmentally responsible way of transporting oil is to – not transport oil.
    Clearly pipelines are the safest way to move oil, and the NDP is dead set against both the Northern Gateway and Keystone pipelines, and offer no alternative, except obscenely expensive and inefficient “sustainable” wind power and other useless approaches like cap and trade and carbon taxes.
    I’m quite amazed to see the NDP champion the poor and most vulnerable in our society by raising their energy costs and taxes.
    As for JT, the mediarazzi tried this love-in with Dion and Ignatieff, the voter yawned and went for Harper. The voter won’t care about this or that statement or poll until we are actually approaching/in an election campaign, in 2015 – despite instructions from the mediarazzi. By then the economy will be a bit better (don’t expect too much with the onrushing boomer medical and pension costs), perhaps balance the budget and propose more income splitting, political accountability and further international trade agreements.
    Harper is way too smart for the Libs and NDP and he can again, play the coalition card. JT has given the Tories a rich database of stupid comments for their attack ads. The only fly in the ointment will be encouraged progressive, fresh from (illegally?) reducing Rob Ford’s powers, thinking they can do the same to Harper.
    They are wrong and they will fail.

  17. Huge difference between ‘decriminalization’ and ‘legalizing’.
    Could we all keep that in mind , especially when polls are answered by LIV.

  20. MikeSr. “Apparently John Tory has been designated as the Progressives Candidate for Toronto Mayor in 2014. Can’t imagine why they believe this P.C. light weight is going to be accepted by the Ford Nation.”
    The guy couldn’t get elected dog catcher. Nobody actually seems to like him. Just step aside and Ford have another go at it. And someone please tell Ford to STFU for a minute. The whole thing is a setup with regurgitation of the same incident over months.
    I can’t believe that a manufactured news story has such legs, spurred on by an incompetent police chief who spent a $ million on an investigation that would net Ford a $ 100 fine in most courts in the land. Like it or not possession of small amounts of drugs rates the punishment equivalent of a parking ticket. They must be fresh out of real crime in Toronto.
    Note that the rest of us don’t think less of Toronto because of Ford. We think less of Toronto because they are a bunch of sissies who call out the Army for what we consider average snowfall. I think every councillor in Toronto should be asked, under oath, the same questions that they asked Ford.

  21. I can’t see any possible way Ford or any other candidate can win against Olivia Chow,widow of Saint Jack of the Rub ‘N Tug.
    All Chow has to do is organize a couple of photo ops in front of Jack’s statue and she’s in,in a landslide.
    I’ll go out on a limb here,the “limb” being 18 inches thick,two feet off the ground,and predict Chow would take a pure majority of the votes,probably around 60% of the votes cast.
    With his pro-pot stance, Justin’s playing to the youth vote,not realizing the youth vote of 1969 might have elected him, but we’ve all grown up now,and the economy is WAY more important to us than legalizing marijuana.
    Great hair,though.

  22. Jr’s platform makes perfect sense were he running for the Marijuana Party; instead he is running for what once was a mainstream political party which governed Canada for most of the 20th century.Next election will feature PM Stephen Harper who has lead Canada through a nasty recession with finances in the best shape of G8, against a dilettante who favours legalizing pot, and admires one-party China.

  23. Just-In should understand that now matter what his personal position on MJ is, he is an elected member of parlement and so is charged with making laws and making certain that the laws are adhered to, so he should grow up and STFU about his personal use of any illegal substance. And his possible illegal counseling of encouraging youth to break said laws should be cause to have the fool charged. And deer departed Jack-off also committed the same sin of breaking the laws that he was charged to make sure that were being enforced. Lefties are dimwitted A-holes on such matters!!

  24. Scar, the analogy is that someone is talking their own book. If pipelines are too controversial for you take a bank or car company. The point is links between private interest and public positions.
    We can debate whether the silence on the matter is because they are Liberals, the topic is pot or both. Personally I would say its the former.

  26. So he is asked a question, and responds truthfully that kids should stay off pot because it’s not good for developing brains, but that it should be regulated for adults and he’s a bad guy? Go read what actually happened, not some Conservative fund raising letter for crying out loud.
    What, do you think the kid who asked the question had never heard of pot before? That if you just pretend it doesn’t exist or tell them that it’s as bad as crack that you’re doing them any favours?
    Pot legalization is coming. Period. The demographic shift will make it happen within the next decade because all of the WWII generation who was told that pot would turn them into insane rapists will no longer be voting, nor will a significant portion of the Silent Generations who was exposed to the same garbage.
    We need to be ready for it, and get kids ready for it. They need to be taught that drugs and alcohol are something that when used in moderation by adults is ok, BUT only if they educate themselves and use good judgement.
    Unfortunately, we have a leader like Rob Ford who does the opposite, driving around drunk, smoking crack with teens our young adults involved in gang activity, grabbing asses, being a pig, getting kicked out of events for being drunk that he dragged his kids along to, and beating his wife up by the looks of the numerous police incidents that have taken place at his home.
    Conservatives = failure of reason.
