Will Justin Trudeau survive a confidence motion in September?

, Justin Trudeau, can claim to have managed the pandemic well. His country has had far fewer cases and deaths as a proportion of its population than the United States. Government spending to protect the economy from the pandemic’s worst effects was prompt and well targeted. The economy looks as if it will recover faster than its neighbour’s. Although Mr Trudeau’s Liberal Party lost its majority in the election held in October, its fortunes recovered after the virus struck.

Mr Morneau said he was leaving because Canada needs a finance minister with a long-term commitment to rebuild after the pandemic. He had decided long ago that he would not serve in more than two governments . Ergo he should leave now. He is also vacating his parliamentary seat. Parliament’s ethics commissioner and its ethics committee are investigating whether both men had a conflict of interest when the cabinet in May awarded a contract worth C$43.5m toCharity to administer a programme that rewards students for helping their communities. In the preceding five years,paid Mr Trudeau’s mother and brother more than C$350,000 for appearing at events.

Justin intends to offer MASSIVE new money with a Universal Income built into the plan without using the word. NDP will love this and Justin's CV rule of madness will continue according the WEF/UN agenda. If anyone still thinks this is about a virus, stop.
