It's hardly a Liberal throwback-whatever that means. It was Harper's refusing to provide a file which he has a legal requirement to do, hence the finding. Harper failed to act, other than hide, so there is a need for a stopgap plan until the open competition can occur for full replacement.

Are you kidding? Failure to provide costs of the F 35 helped get Harper the dubious distinction of being the first ever PM to be found in contempt of parliament.

Well so far Trumps ban has managed to capture and quarantine a 5 year old American citizen for 4 hours. Good going Donald, who knows, your policy may have just sown the seeds of a terrorist when he grows up.

There what? Maybe you don't read well?. Did you happen to notice the comment about "Trump's incompetence" in the piece?

http://www.vox.com/world/2017/1/31/14444862/obama-refugee-ban-2011 “The seven countries named in the Executive Order are the same countries previously identified by the Obama administration as sources of terror.” This is wrong in every particular. Obama’s Iraqi visa policy in 2011 did not ban Iraqis from entering the country. Obama’s immigration policy did not treat people with passports from the seven countries as unusually dangerous terrorism threats. And Obama’s policies never approached anything like the breadth, cynicism, and incompetence of Trump’s executive order.

Yep, presidents as recent as Bush attempted to ignore habeas corpus. Why not just erase it out of the system altogether? Then you can Gitmo to your hearts content.

It's always nice to buy a product you already know works, especially the engine(S). 2 that is that don't blow up very often.

So if I follow your "logic", if Trump is as bad as you reckon others were then that's good enough?

You must be reading Breitbart again. Obama didn't ban anyone. His list only removed visa waiver's.

I'd say Trump is actually filling up the swamp. Look at his cabinet and how much fun SNL is having with Seam Spicer's continious lying. "It's not a ban", "only 109 people affected by the....uh...non ban" etc., etc.

One last time...where did the 9/11 bombers hail from?

How long have you been such an ardent fan of CBC?

I am not an attorney, but my understanding is that DUI is not a crime referred to as "moral turpitude" and so therefore it won't bar you from Xing the border. If they ask you id you ever smoked "dope", say NO.

Trump defends Putin as the latter is being referred to as a killer, then claims America is also a killer, "not so innocent", and at the same time seems to ignore the fact he supported the Iraq war. How much more bizarre could one get? Maybe America should impeach Trump and then elect Alec Baldwin.

That horse has been flogged to death. It must be frustrating to be looking around in such a flurry and finding nothing else.

Interesting read. Can you imagine the political landscape American's would now be facing if Obama was allowed to run this time? Perhaps they should re-think that two term limit.

Donald brings up the funny stuff, and lately the DoJ brings up the grown up stuff. The mix is quite entertaining.

Don't have to tell myself that, the news reports the latest giggle every day.

We've been laughing a lot more than a little. It seems it's you guys that don't get it. And of course we do get the serious side of things when the newly elected POTUS can't get along with the judicial level of his government. You kinda have to be able to discern both levels.

Between Tina Fey slamming Sarah Pallin and now Baldwin doing th same with Trump, SNL is doing great. Baldwin is thinking of taking his Trump thing on the road. As long as Trump keeps providing the fodder, comedians are going to use it. Apparently Trump's sense of humor is lacking as well.

I'd be interested to hear your description of this strange concept. "necessary unfairness"

I will venture a guess Obama will even "trump" Bill Clinton when it comes to payments for speaking engagements. So I'd say the love affair is far from over. And can you imagine anyone hiring Trump to speak, especially if/when he gets thrown out?

Canadians are equally enjoying the Trump/DoJ episodes as well as the lovely job SNL has been doing of poking such fun at the clumsiness of the current WH admin. Thanks USA USA

Lately he seems to just wake up in time to find out he has incurred ever more of the wrath of the judiciary. And then he gets all sweaty and huffy and tweets out a tad more of his childish anger. Who could blame the media for having a field day with it. And SNL has a seemingly endless source of material. And Baldwin does such a great job.

So poor old Kellie Leitch not only loses the support of the pro immigration prof. she likes to quote, she has now lost her campaign manager, who not surprisingly cut his teeth with Rob Ford. I'd say the "Canadian Values" of hers gets dimmer by the day. http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/nick-kouvalis-steps-down-1.3964579
