Liberal MP, party president joined Trudeau for his controversial Bahamas vacation with the Aga Khan.
But, “O’Regan said in a telephone interview Tuesday that no Canadian government business was discussed during his time on the island.”
How’s the sobriety going, Seamus?

“Seamus O’Regan, the first-time MP for St. John’s South—Mount Pearl and former CTV broadcaster, and his husband Stelios (Steve) Doussis…”
Seamus O’Regan is gay? Never saw that coming.
“O’Regan said in a telephone interview Tuesday that no Canadian government business was discussed during his time on the island.”
A whole week with politicians and political activists and no politics were discussed.
I go for a beer with a few of the guys after work and that’s all we talk about, even after saying no talking shop.
Did the PM get a good tan ? There’s nothing more important to a lily white leftist than to get his brownskin on.
Like when a bunch of us old farts go to annual fish camp. We never talk about the weather, politics, food, how good (or bad) the fishing is and women (imaginary ones, old girlfriends or spouses).
Right Seamus. And you look just sooooooo cute in the photo with Justine. Maybe time for a divorce Seamus.
So the airhead in Ottawa gives freely of other people’s money to some rich guy, a billionaire they say, to do good, they say.
That is neither here nor there, the rich guy can do as he pleases with the exception of the other people’s money that does not belong to the one that gave.
Full power to those that want to use their own money to contribute, none of anybody’s business.
Using money, collected by force, from the people that get up every morning to go to work to make a living certainly appears a corrupt practice.
The airhead obviously got his rewards due to the millions of dollars he took from the Canadian treasury and gave freely as though his own.
No mistake there, zero, none.
Anyone here that thinks the billionaire guy deserves his/herA money to do good is free to contribute.
Those that don’t, have and reserve the right to contribute elsewhere as they please.
“O’Regan said in a telephone interview Tuesday that no Canadian government business was discussed during his time on the island.”
This brings to mind Bill Clinton’s statement during his impeachment hearings: “It depends upon what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is.”
He should change his name to Shamus O’Really.
In the same way that Billy Clinton talked about grandchildren with US Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
Justin “Drama Teacher” Trudeau must really think that the people of Canada are stupid.
Maybe that or perhaps he’s completely playing the Canadian people for fools.
“Justin “Drama Teacher” Trudeau must really think that the people of Canada are stupid.

Both. Only the Laurentian Elite know what is good for Canadians.
Who cares if there was no political talk when little Seamus and whoever else from the government visited the Aga’s Island domain? They are government MP’s and operatives, why else would they be invited? Too bad we don’t have a press who can talk and chew gum at the same time. All they can concentrate on alleged fake news about Trump and have no time to pay attention to what’s going on within their own country’s government.
I was impressed with Trump’s handling of the screeching media firing questions at him, he didn’t mmince words…refreshing from a high level politician.
Would be entirely refreshing for the media to do its job and flesh out the other people on “Christmas Vacation” on this luxurious private island, complete with the illegally and controversially dredged bay for the 150 foot private yacht of the Agha Khan to float in to. Where are the environmentalists screeching in their crystal shattering, shrill voices at the desecration of the marine life robbed of their natural habitat? When the Muslims do it, there is deafening silence from the hordes-of-hate regarding these atrocities.
Here’s the job for you media clowns regarding this jaunt to places where only the well-heeled and politically or religiously aligned are allowed:
Who was on that island?
How many donors?
How many Head’s of State or Government officials?
Were there any Christmas decorations hung, placed or arranged, indicating it was indeed a “Christmas Vacation”?
Were there any round-table meetings, formal gatherings or think-tank discussions where persons of equal title or rank or position attended where there were no political discussions held?
What was on the menu?
What activities were the guests participating in?
Amazing to see the absolute transparency of fine Liberal Government officials and their lapdog media friends working hard for the sub-serviant plebes.
Drain the Swamp…part deux!!!
As “smitherenzes” says, we peasants always end up talking “shop” when having a few pints with the lads from work,BUT we have to understand that our Betters are made of sterner stuff and if they decide to meet and the first order of the meet is,”no shop talk”, thus there shall be NO shop talk.
Mr.O’Regan, or should that be Mrs.O’Regan as he has a husband, is quite believable, if he says no politics were discussed, we must humbly take his/her word for it.
Maybe they simply spent the week discussing how to make homosexuality compatible with Islam.
Maybe they were trying on dresses and sharing make-up tips.
“How’s the sobriety going?” Oh, what a low blow. One almost feels sorry for him.
aw c’mon man. gay, liberal, mp, newf, gets all the sympathy
sober white man? not so much. (google Trump)
Gary D and Ken (Kulak), I don’t know where you have been for most of your adult lives, assuming you are adults, but here is a flash… Canadians are stupid!!! The sitting MP of Saanich and the Gulf Islands proposed this fact on the National Media a few years ago. Just to give you a further example of how stupid we are, one example of legions, consider this. Canada sends overseas aid to Third World countries in the billions of dollars every year. Pakistan has received aid for many years somewhere in the $100,000,000 per year from Canada. Pakistan has a shore line of a little over 1000 kilometers and has a navy compliment of 33 ships. Canada has a shore line of over 200,000 kilometers and has a navy compliment of 34 ships. Please explain why Canadians put up with giving taxpayer money away to foreign aid when the money could be put to better use here at home other than the fact that Canadians are stupid.
Well, it’s one thing to have the attitude that a Canadians MIGHT be stupid. It’s another thing entirely to behave as if they were.
I, for one, think EVERY Canadian is valued and worthy, regardless of their ability to make good judgements or of their knowledge of the world around them.
It is NOT the right of ANY leader to treat his fellow citizens as if he/she is more equal than they are.
..and to improve optics after vacations with Muslim billionaire on a private island, post a Muslim as the immigration minister.
As it has been thecase with the Liberals at provincial level to be overtaken by an ethnic group, mark my words, one day Liberal party will be dominated by one religious group.
Of course Canadians are stupid, complacent and easily duped.
“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.” George Carlin
That’s the group the Lieberals beam their message to, and it’s the group that elected them. That’s also the fundamental flaw in a three party system.
Organize and motivate the twitter linked idiots and you’ve got a win.
“Organize and motivate the twitter linked idiots and you’ve got a win.”
Yup. And one of grandkiddies,who was a true blue socialist,is now finding that out. No job,a sh!thole apartment to live in,and no support from welfare(wrong colour). We just sit back and laugh(figuratively). As we tell her,you voted for it,you’re going to get it. Move in with one of your commie friends. Mind you,her Mom needs a good waking up also,but stupid is as stupid does.
“Justin “Drama Teacher” Trudeau must really think that the people of Canada are stupid.”
Well, I hate to give him any credit, but two-thirds of the electorate DID vote for the Liberals, Greens, or NDP in the last election.
Mutt: Hey Jeff. These smart pills you sold me taste like sh!t.
Jeff: See, you are smarter already.
Ya…but…but…Mike Duffy…
Apparently, PM Hair-Boy is not afraid of the ethics commissioner:
