PIK Posted May 1, 2017 Report Posted May 1, 2017 23 hours ago, Omni said: Harper, for all his efforts got 0 pipeline's approved in his nearly a decade in office. The fact that both Trudeau and the other amigo phoned Trump to discuss MATO and that Trump admits those discussions swayed him, and the fact that Trudeau did not put words in Sajjan's mouth should go some way to blunt this round of your anti Trudeau rant. You'll have to try harder. A lot harder. I think harper had 4 pipelines and XL is his, not trudeau. And I think the 35 governors that need business with canada had more to do with trump's decision . And if you read the art of the deal, trumps says to start a neg you need to hit your opponent in the head. Nice try Omni, but no matter what you think, trudeau is the worst and history will prove that. Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.
Moonlight Graham Posted May 1, 2017 Report Posted May 1, 2017 I'm shocked that a government, let alone a Liberal government, lied about something. Most politicians are scumbags. Quote "All generalizations are false, including this one." - Mark Twain Partisanship is a disease of the intellect.

The pipelines don't directly go through the lands of most of the natives opposing them.

Seems he may have taken a hit to the head. Quote

We're a little off topic but yes the courts are simply people and therefore not perfect. I would add that the two items you mention are not mutually exclusive. Quote

The problem with crossing native land was more south of the border. North of the border it was Harper's failure to consult. Quote

scribblet Posted May 2, 2017 Report Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) I tried one which wouldn't open, got a 404, but they sounded like they came from the pen of Mike Harris, a 'journalist' so biased and bitter he's predictable, I wouldn't read anything from Montreal Simon either, another blogger so biased I wouldn't take notice of anything he writes either. I don't call their rantings journalism. Bev Oda had to step down because she violated the party values, obviously by he's not firing Sajjan for lying (and Monsef) as lying must be a Liberal value.

Perhaps you weren't listening to QP as often as I was when Harper was constantly lying over, oh, for instance the $90k check to Duffy.
