Oh, Shiny Prime Minister!

@SheilaGunnReid“The purchases Trudeau ordered bureaucrats to make to top-up the existing fleet at his lake house included: One 17 foot prospector canoe specifically in red, one flat water kayak and one river kayak, two paddleboards, a windsurfer, a sailboat, a pontoon boat, and a ski boat”

  1. We’ve seen this sort of thing before in various African states, Haiti, North Korea and Romania (to name a few).

    It’s time for Baby Trudeau to be chased out of the country.

    1. How about its time we see him hanging on a meat hook from an Ottawa Lampost…?
      This POS is destroying this country….

      Regardless, Long Long overdue for Alberta to say adios MoFo’s and Separate. There is no reason to believe things will change and the status quo simply canot be left to stand.

  2. Our beloved PM goes by the old saying,” a healthy body is a sign of a healthy mind”, thus he makes sure he has lots of canoes and kayaks available so he can get proper exercise, and badly needed oxygen to his brain.

    This one wasn’t very outrageous,Sheila, sorry.

    1. Most of us buy our own recreational shit. He’s a f’ing millionaire, be can buy his own stuff. In what non third world dictatorship is the taxpayer expected to buy a sailboat, ski boat and pontoon boat for a family.

    2. That fact that he feels entitled to 9 new boats to go with his free vacation palace is kinda outrageous.
      Not really in touch with the common citizens there.

      It will be interesting to take an inventory after the Liberals are defeated to see what is still there. I bet he will be like his pal Hillary and try to take the silverware and china. We know he loves china.

    3. I get it, Don. You mean Justin badly needs oxygen to his brain, which is all too true, but not on my dime, thank you muchly. Not the taxpayers’ problem that he’s inhaled too much marijuana and lost what few brain cells he had at birth, after his mother’s alleged drug use.

    4. don
      exercise? Justin can do pushups, jogging, wind sprints. But those don’t cost taxpayers any money. Justin likes to live high on the hog at tax payers expense. Remember we paid to install his sauna.

      Don’t forget that Butts and Telford got in on the act. They had to return money they bilked out of tax payers.
      The Liberal sense of entitlement is back and they are feeding from the public trough. Oink oink oink.

    1. Oh no … his personal costume designer will handle that. It (can be sure of gender) did a bang up job on the East Indian wardrobe now didn’t it?

    2. A deerskin loincloth when he paddles the ‘native’ birchbark or cedar slat canoes. Gotta go full First People’s … and pay for everything with wampum. Not taxpayer $$$

  3. Meanwhile the Chief of the Defence staff reports today that Canada isn’t getting fighter jets quickly enough. Oh well, as long as Great Leader gets some new toys that is all that matters. Think of the great coverage by his adoring media as he paddles on the lake with his ruffled hair. Women across the nation will be drooling in anticipation.

    1. Don’t worry Justin will buy some Bombardier business jets and let the military fly Liberals around the world.

  4. Depending on the ski boat, a new one of these babies can cost as much or more than a new car.

    $50K for a Mastercraft or Malibu is just the start.

    Worth following up on.

    1. By pontoon boat, I assume they are talking about we call party boat. They can run $50,000 for a decent one. I doubt they would buy a stripped down, small, or non luxury model.Greg

    2. The boats will, no doubt, be purchased at rock-bottom prices from a dealer who’s holding a “Going Out of Business Because of the Carbon Tax” sale. Not only will those be bought at a large discount, it’ll show that the carbon tax actually worked.

      Prinz Dummkopf will, no doubt, be pleased.

  5. Mastercraft are $100K plus these days. On a small lake he should probably go old school and get a Mastercraft Barefoot 200 with Yamaha Vmax two stroke power.

  6. The house is not his, it belongs to Canada. As will the boats which will be available to the next PM, I can’t stand Justin and the liberals but this is a non story.

    1. They always claim that it belongs to the people everywhere that the people are abused, but would the people buy it of their own free will, or were they force to purchase it to satisfy the whims of an out of touch dictator wannabe? This is not an expense related to governing.

      Wanna bet that in addition to his specifying exact details of what to purchase that he also either specified the vendor, or made sure that the details could be provided by no other vendor? Wanna bet on the vendors political affiliation? Wanna bet on the vendors donation history or future donations?

      When we start to overlook corruption and contempt for the citizens in small amounts, we will get it in large amounts. I understand why Liberals never want to buy working helicopters.

    2. a poli sci tip stevie: it dont matter SQUAT whose name is on the ownership. it’s ALL about WHO gets exclusive use of said toys.
      m’kay?
      otoh, if the craft sunk with the turd on board and the turd drown THAT would be worth it eh?

    3. But none of the Prime Ministers require this type of thing. It is an unneeded luxury and it is bad form in a context where many people are struggling. If he wanted this stuff, he could have bought the items himself and planned to take them with him when he leaves.

    4. A “non story” Steve? Because they belong to Canada? When was Canada, the taxpayer, asked if WE want the boats. Boats that are to “…top up the EXISTING fleet…” Frivolous spending of OUR money should ALWAYS be a story. Sadly the Media Party think like you.

    5. Justin should crowd fund it. I’m sure Steve Ottridge would love to donate a canoe, or jet ski boat.

    6. Demand to stay at the house, or use one of the boats, then come back here and tell us how they belong to “Canada”.

    7. But its his intention with the help of the media and the stupid to be the next prime minister and on and on and on. then someday he can do away with those expensive elections (see he’s saving the tax payer future money) and become Prime Minister for Life.

  7. You do realize that we are supposed to buy all those toys for him out of gratitude for his wise and enlightened rule of this country and for his love of the people? After all, isn’t that what happened in the Soviet Union and the other Warsaw Pact countries?

    Yeah, right.

        1. Yes, the Prinz is carefully stealing away on tip toe if he has to gently, as he may, every step with caution and as silently as he can, and furthermore he’ll blame the cat if he has to!
          (words from the song)

          Note well: did you see the purchase documents that Sheila Gunn- Reid was flashing, they are dated March 2016? That ‘s almost 3 years ago! Tip-toe, tip-toe stealing… Mr Trudeau, oh but it belongs to Canadians!

          This tune is from H.M.S. Pinafore, the crew is stealing away, tip toe, and then frightened by a sound, they stop to listen and then realize the sound was only a cat! Listen:

  8. It will be very interesting to see what Justin Turdoo does when he is no longer a fake Prime Minister. Will he take up the duties of a statesman and work for good in the world, or will he go teach snow boarding to young women who don’t mind being groped.

  9. Truly outrageous. Oh, but “Duffy, Duffy, Duffy.” How can Liberal supporters tolerate such hypocrisy?

    1. I look forward to Khadr, Khadr, Khadr next election.

      Add to that his junk platform lies of 2015, his abject failure on the pipeline/resources issue, and his ridiculous insistence on gender equity and bowing at foreign altars of power over climate change cons.

      Since he has the arrogance of his father but without the intellect, he will insist on his “wisdom” of taxing the poor to death.

      The only question is will his political puppeteers let him. I doubt the “middle class in crisis” feel redeemed or relieved.

      When his nice hair routine was failing in 2015, they recast him as the crony capitalist posing as a populist.

      That was before Donald Trump blew the lid off that establishment nonsense.

      His next re-minting as the oligarchical socialist – sorry, reservoir of ” what Canadians want” – can’t be far behind.

      This is Scheer’s election to lose imho. It doesn’t mean we should help him lose does it?

      1. It won’t be Khadre, Khadre, Khadre in the next election because the lap dogs in MSM will ignore Khadre,
        and this story
        and the groping story
        and India
        and his middle finger to Alberta

        and do their best to scream Duffy, Duffy, Duffy again

  10. I will be curious to hear whether or not all these boats will still be there after he leaves office this fall.

    1. Sure do. It raised a minor brouhaha, because at the time not all the media were on the Liberals’ payroll. The Liberal Party refused to reveal the names of the “donors” or whether there was a quid pro quo. I think there was speculation that the thing had been arranged by Maurice Strong and Power Corp. Of course there was payback…Trudeau was their creature from the start. The maverick shtick was a PR act.

  11. This will likely result in failure and shine a light on the incompetence, mendacity and sheer stupidity of Trudeau, but go ahead.

    While we’re at it, let’s compare the two platforms of 2015. No?

    “Trudeau says it’s worth ‘pointing out’ similarities between Scheer and Harper.”

    I can think of a few right off the bat. Once is knowledgeable and realistic, the other ignorant and myth making.

    One understands the changing world we live in. The other thinks only climate is changing.

    Did I mention reality. This is much closer to Gritreality:

    “Brock Harrison, a spokesman for Scheer, said if anyone is stuck in 2015, it’s Trudeau.”

    “He wants to re-fight the 2015 campaign because virtually everything he and his government have done since then has been a failure,” said Harrison, adding that Trudeau will have to explain why he’s “failed to balance the budget, secure the border, build pipelines, and provide relief for Canadian families.”

    Failed covers it all. And we failed in electing him, knowing he would failure. Our next failure will mean the failure of Canada.

    1. Funny, but at least there was a reason for Van Halen and the no brown M&M contract rider.
      The reason for that was to test if promoters had actually read the very detailed contract filled with technical details like electrical and structural requirements for their stage show. If brown M&Ms were found backstage they brought in extra tradesmen and such to go over the whole construction and make sure it was safe.

      With Trudeau, the red canoe is just another fashion accessory for his tickle trunk.

  12. Regardless of what Justin does, the average Canadian voter has the I.Q. of a gnat. Translation Justin will win again in 2019 and Canada will officially on the way of Venezuela.

  13. “Look at all thothe new boatth, Thophie. The people of Canada bought them for uth. And they thaid that the carbon takth would hurt them, thilly people.”

    1. “Non, non, non, je n’aime pas les boatths Justin, because…
      bébé it’s cold outside!”

  14. Wow, I just read through the twitter replies. There is a stunning amount of retard Douche Canoe Lieberals defending this crap because ‘lake house’ or cottage’ is something that apparently everyone in Canada has.

    Also I went to Google news. Not ONE mention of this by typing in Trudeau and Canoe or Trudeau Boat. Total silence.

  15. I remember the former Premier of Alberta leased a private Wide Body to fly her to Africa & the funeral of @@@@@ The Canadian Civil Service idea was that the leader of RICH Alberta deserved this perk & Taxpayers must pay to make them seem more special….Yes! Canadians fake their importance….It feels so good… Shut up and support the small potato…..
