Trudeau’s decision to hit the reset button comes as the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically altered the government’s agenda and calls from the opposition for Trudeau to resign or face a snap election continue in the wake of the ongoing WE Charity student grant controversy. use “prorogation to avoid difficult political circumstances,” as the Liberals accused former prime minister Stephen Harper of doing.of Harper’s 2013 prorogation amid the Senate expense scandal. , killing all legislative business that has not passed. In this case it would mean halting all ongoing WE Charity committee probes should they still be underway come next month, and wiping away the remaining pre-pandemic pieces of legislation.

Also reacting to the news, soon-to-be-replaced Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer accused Trudeau of “walking out on Canadians in the middle of a major health and economic crisis, in a disgusting attempt to make Canadians forget about his corruption.” “We believe that the goal and the job of Parliament is to work for people to make sure they have help. In a pandemic we need to be there to do that work,” Singh said. Morneau’s sudden resignation led to concerns about how the economy would react given the ongoing economic crisis, though by tapping Freeland to take on that challenge and handing back some additional responsibility to LeBlanc, Trudeau is putting more responsibility on two of his most trusted ministers.

LeBlanc and Trudeau have been close friends for many years. He represents the New Brunswick riding of Beausejour, and was first elected to Parliament in 2004. He has also held a variety of cabinet posts, including government House leader and fisheries minister.While Morneau has said his departure is not due to the ongoing WE Charity student grant controversy, opposition MPs were quick to say otherwise, suggesting that Trudeau should also go given his own family ties to WE.

🤮🤮

Not much good if you cough or sneeze in your sleeve then elbow someone else and they cough or sneeze in there sleeve. How about no contact.

CTVAtlantic Hey look it’s the evil astronaut. So this is what she does when not wasting money and treating people like garbage. Waste of Money and Oxygen gg

cafreeland is a BOSS, and can clearly do ALL of the things. But why does she have to? Why is one woman the Deputy Prime Minister AND the Finance Minister? Talk about overworked.

Journalist as a FM, what can go wrong?

Love how the media is trying to distract us from the real story here, LIBERAL CORRUPTION. TrudeauCrimeMinister TrudeauMustGo is trending, again. CanadianMediaBoughtAndPaidFor

The monkeys at work.

UnFuckingBelievable The Mafia applauding themselves after announcing they're shutting down democracy in Canada.

1)Trudeau counts to manipulate Freeland as he did with other women he dealt with; 2) Freeland is not fit at all, the way she handled the new NAFTA with the well known Trump was a failure (I would have make him sign to pay $3 Billions if not respecting the agreement); 3) Finance

white privilege

I feel sorry for Chrystia Freeland. She is motivated and driven and good on her. However, she latched onto and is overly loyal to poisonous JT who will destroy her legacy. JT is a vacuous fool who will ruin everyone associated with him.

Yep.. Trudeau does this crap while the aluminum market suffers! People being laid off, losing there houses and other items... and here he is bumping nasty with other liberals!! WTF IS WRONG WOTH YOU SIR!! Is your head screwed on wrong But that’s a question and won’t get answer

Canada, we are in for a bumpy ride.

Earth shattering 🙄

The 3 amigos alright! Scary

Criminals

They look the part.... Criminals!!!

Who cares this is a joke

When you say, this government can't get more incompetent. Trudeau says ' hold my beer '

This is such utter BS! After 3 ethics violations, Trudeau should also be resigning, just like Morneau! Let someone else lead forward. Why aren’t the Liberal caucus, and Liberal voters, demanding it?!?! I am so disgusted with Cdn politics! TrudeauIsCorrupt TrudeauMustResign

Almost nauseating!

What an embarrassment

From clueless to useless in the finance ministry.

I wonder if Peter McKay is still concerned about civil discourse with these crooked so and so’s.

A part time journalist who screwed up NAFTA...what could possibly go wrong

Oh I hate this. Just give a polite nod

She is awesome but the wrong appointment.

But first, the GG quizzes her on which planets have retrograde rotation

.CanadianPM She doesn’t have Finance background but even when your performance depends on your team; you’re still the one providing guidance & coaching them. We will see how it works 🤔 We cannot forget that .JustinTrudeau is still ACCOUNTABLE (such an “ugly” word😠) as PM😷🤓

If there's a bright spot in this pandemic, it's that we're spared the prime minister's intensely creeping close up eye gazing with his new ministers.

Social conditioning. Surface spread is not really a thing. Zero documented cases.

Where's my vomit bucket The Creep and The Journalist.... sounds like a la la land Disney Movie TrudeauWorstPM AskFreelandAboutHerWEinvolvment

Look at the 'King' on his throne ...

Waiting for your negative spin as written by your masters at CPC_HQ

Well that was fast

why didn't you include in your 'breaking news' ...sworn in as Canada's most unqualified finance minister. CTV, report the fucking truth for once!!!!

Same bus driver different casualty...

Canada, is being run by pirates

Dumping elbows and telling people that wearing panty-liners on their face will save them from a deadly virus which never happened. Smiling as Canadians have no clue they have entered a global depression with 26-28% CERB included unemployment Keep the virus, get rid of this PARTY

lol phag

Terrible!

he looked so happy to do it LOL.

well let's see if she'll have the balls to stand up against JT if a situation merits it like Puglaas

Canada is a full-blown idiocracy.

Exactly who we don't need in Government.

I thought he was going for her breast! He did that before.
