No it didn’t good ridden to bad rubbish they thought they get him over thrown but that didn’t work so like spoiled children they quit

another devil down, don't lose sight of this thing please.

So UK ministers have the courage to stand up to their corrupt leaders?

In the UK they actually ask their politicians hard questions on hold the government to account. Not in Canada.

Trudeau's pal. The morally bankrupt stick together. In Canada it does not matter what you do. No Liberal would resign in Canada. The entire cabinet has no moral compass.

He must have got tired of telling lies, or he has amassed enough money and does not need anymore from telling lies about the Covid sham/scam. 🤡🌎

Ther is no friends or enemies in politics only

The end of the cabal. The end of the Ukraine BS. Next the Queen's death
