National Post;

In an interview with the Vancouver Sun earlier this week, Trudeau mused that a Liberal government would repeal the First Nations Financial Transparency Act, the new law that requires First Nations to post their audited financial statements online or risk losing government funding.
The Liberal leader said the bill reflected a “lack of respect for First Nations” and was being used by the Conservatives as a weapon against critics.
The law came into effect at the end of July. About half of the 600 First Nations communities affected by the law have yet to post their reports.

Just another stop on the Root Causes Tour;

Justin Trudeau is being accused of “intellectual dishonesty” for his visiting a Montreal-area mosque that American government sources say has been an Al-Qaeda recruitment centre.
The Al Sunnah Al-Nabawiah mosque sits in Trudeau’s Quebec riding.
The Liberal leader reluctantly acknowledged last weekend he’d attended the Al-Sunnah Al-Nabawiah mosque, which follows the strict Wahhabist interpretation of Islam (codified and practiced in Saudi Arabia) then cast doubt on the veracity of the American government’s designation.

All it needs is a snappy name, like “national energy program”.

Federal Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau confirms he would put a price on carbon emissions regardless of whether other countries do.
The comment came Friday at the Calgary Stampede when Sun News Network’s Rob Gibson asked the Grit chief if he’d take action on carbon emissions if major emitters like China and the United States did not.
Trudeau said Canada’s role is to be “an example,” adding “we need to show that we are taking this seriously.”

A Liberal MP was secretly recorded saying that he thought party leader Justin Trudeau had a “bozo eruption” when he declared that anti-abortion candidates won’t be allowed to run for the Liberals.
John McKay, a Toronto MP who opposes abortion, thought he was having a private conversation at an event Sunday when he expressed his frustration with Trudeau’s public abortion stance.
“I’ve had umpteen conversations with so many people about this. It’s driving me crazy,” he is heard saying in the audio recording obtained by CTV News.

Awkward.

The intellectual class have begun to notice – “the haughtiness of his father and the vanity of his mother…”

Trudeau has mused aloud, unwisely, with precious little forethought, about all manner of stuff, from pot laws to his professed admiration for China’s dictatorship. He is a political flibbertigibbet, his judgment a mile wide and a millimetre deep. Thus, Trudeau was stumped for an answer to the obvious followup question after stating that abortion opponents would be barred from seeking Liberal nominations — whether he’d allow Liberal MPs already in the fold to vote freely or absent themselves should an abortion bill come before the House of Commons.

Now is the time at SDA when we juxtapose!
Justin Trudeau, December 2013: “We have to offer a full reboot, and that means that every candidate for the Liberal Party in 338 ridings in 2015, or whenever the election does come, will have been chosen in a free vote by the Liberal members of that riding.”
Justin Trudeau, May 2014: “The Liberal party’s official position on abortion is very clear. It is a party of pro-choice … All Liberal party candidates in 2015 must accept and support the party’s position on this.”

Trudeau…sigh.

“I’m of the school of international relations that says it’s important to talk to each other and it’s especially important to talk to regimes that you disagree with and which disagree with you,” Trudeau offered, in decrying the closure of the Iranian embassy in Ottawa — the domestic spy palace for a theocratic regime that has been known to torture, rape and murder its own citizens, as well as Canada’s, with impunity.

You know what scares me the most about Trudeau? No context or common dog.
The eviction of the Iranians and the closing of ours in Iran was a big surprise to everyone. It happened in a near vacuum, sure, there was the Iranian nuke program and Iran was supplying Syria, but that was bogged down in rhetoric with the US. Then, April 2013, the VIA Rail bombers are arrested. Surprise, backed by Persion AQ elements.
It’s not like the regime in Iran would have a beef with Canada or anything, or a Trudeau, in particular. I mean, Argo was just a movie, right?
That apple fell a little too far from the tree.

David Akin;

…. this week we tried three times and learned that you are in Trudeau’s middle class if you are one of those people who:
a) “…work for their income, not people who live off their assets and their saving.” (Monday)
b) “…people who live off their incomes are of the middle class and those who live off their assets, their portfolios, their trust funds are not.” (Tuesday)
c) “…who live paycheque to paycheque…” (Wednesday)
And if you’re confused,
d) “..we’ll let economists argue about which quintile or decile it starts or ends…” (Wednesday)

CBC;

On Thursday, the Federal Trinity-Spadina Liberal Association announced, via press release, that the local executive has “voted to condemn both the process and the decision made by the Liberal Party to block its only known nominee in an imminent by-election.”
[…]
The release claims the party “made unproven and malicious allegations against the candidate and her family” in an effort to “cover up its desire to control the nomination process” — specifically, they allege, in response to Innes’s refusal to sign a written pledge to run for the nomination in Spadina-Fort York in 2015.
