Is this paranoia as strong as the paranoia that Islam/Sharia is taking over Canada with the help of Trudeau? 

Perhaps you can ask scribblett, taxme, et al about that.

Oooh, ooh, can I be part of the "et al"?

They're not taking over, they're trying to overstep.

Every single person born or living in Canada gets the same protections under the Charter of Rights, period. Canadian law is the law of the land and there is no higer power. Sharia law, even just for civil matters, is not compatible with the standards that have been democratically implemented over centuries in this country and across the commonwealth. People who want to live under Sharia law can go live in countries where sharia law prevails or they can tough it out. 

Why would they choose to live in a country that's not compatible with their way of life when there are several countries that are? Is it because of our climate? Nope. Our wealth? Nope - Saudi Arabia is wealthy. It's most likely our freedom. But freedom and sharia are not compatible.

Folks, 

Avoid thread drift lest I do it for you on your behalf.

Anyway, it seems that his smear campaign hits a speed bump. Greens won the Nanaimo-Ladysmith byelection

All this anti and pro Muslim stuff does is reinforce the fact that there is a huge divergence in how Canadians feel about immigration - especially Muslim immigration. The Left generally loves immigration, and especially immigration of 'brown people' because it makes them feel noble and selfless and inclusive. This is why Trudeau is going down the path of demonizing everyone who disagrees. He figures most on the Left will agree with him, and he's trying to get votes from the NDP.  

Unfortunately for him, it's the Tories who are taking HIS votes.

Greens take their votes back too. 

Unlike all projections claim that Tories is safely in majority, I believe it will all depend on the BC voters.

Didn't just squeak into the winners throne . . . . trounced the NDP by 6,000 votes. 

Interesting to see in this backwater bastion of the NDP.  Ask a diehard NDP supporter from Nanaimo-Ladysmith why they vote NDP . . . . . "well, my dad did".

Was hoping for a Conservative win . . .

Could Team Trudeau be abandoning this prosecution because it would prove very damaging politically ?

Negative campaigning is de rigueur these days. Everybody does it. Nobody is really surprised by JT's volte-face.

Only for leftists , they need that to mobilize their base ; demociatic Party in the USA has the similar campaign as well.
