Trudeau says speaking event invoice “bundled” in with MP ones – how is that possible?

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has some additional explaining to do over getting caught charging the taxpayers for a $670.00 limo ride (see here) that he took to one of his paid speaking gigs since this was how he said the ‘mistake’ happened:

“the [speaking] invoice was bundled in other invoices from transport between my riding and Ottawa” (see video here)

Trudeau had stated before that speaking was a personal profession yet an invoice from those expenses happened to be at his MP’s office? Why was it there?

June 12, 2013 Trudeau “I absolutely never used any House or parliamentary resources in any speaking engagements” (see here)

That has been proven untrue on at least one occasion now – how much other of Trudeau’s personal business was run out of his MP’s office using taxpayers’ resources?

 

White males need not apply at Calgary City Hall

Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi doesn’t like the current race and gender make-up of the management running the city:

“When you look at our management levels within the city, (among) my top six managers there are no women now — the one woman retired — there are no people of a visible minority,”

“We’ve got to do a better job, and we have to look internally at our own organization to determine what are the barriers that are in place toward getting people promoted into these jobs,” he said. (see here)

Think about working in an environment where the politician in control thinks you are a racist and misogynistic.

Update: Looks like the Calgary Herald pulled that version from its website – another link to it can be found here

More proof Tides Canada charity is funding oil protesters – Conservative minister remains silent

In the Financial Post, Vivian Krauss outlines how Tides Canada is backing anti-oil pipeline protesters like the two who interrupted PM Stephen Harper’s event in Vancouver as well as Lefty politicians like Vancouver’s mayor:

Mr. Devlin is a well-known activist and man of many hats. He’s a stand-up comedian. He’s also a central figure in a network of activists supported by the U.S. Tides Foundation (“Tides USA”). The hub of this network is Hollyhock, an ocean-front retreat centre situated on Cortes, a remote island in British Columbia.

Devlin is also part of Truthfool Communications, a company that provides “creative and strategic services” to various organizations, including Vision Vancouver, the political party of Vancouver’s Mayor, Gregor Robertson. Truthfool has also done work for LeadNow and Greenpeace, both of which are funded by Tides and other sources. (see here)

This is not the first time Tides has been exposed by people like Krauss so ask yourself why Minister Kerry-Lynne Findlay who is in charge of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) which oversees our charity laws has remained completely silent?

If Findlay refuses to weed-out these law-breaking charities, she should resign in disgrace or be fired. Enough is enough.

Hypocrite alert: Manning Centre invites Tom Flanagan back as speaker

Just a year after pulling Tom Flanagan as a speaker because of these comments on child porn:

“On the child pornography issue … I certainly have no sympathy for child molesters. But I do have some great doubts about putting people in jail because of their taste in pictures. I don’t look at these pictures. (see here)

The Manning Centre has welcomed him back with open arms:

A controversial Conservative strategist who was dropped from the speakers’ list at last year’s gathering of the conservative core is slated to talk at this year’s event in Ottawa next month.

Tom Flanagan, a former Conservative strategist and mentor to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, is one of 30 advertised speakers for the sixth-annual Manning Networking Conference, which attracts Conservative supporters from across the country. (see here)

This isn’t the first time Manning has exposed himself as a blatant hypocrite as he has publicly endorsed and invited hard-core federal Liberal Christie Clark to speak (see here) and as Ezra Levant exposed, is training radical environmentalists (see here).

There’s no doubt that Preston Manning and his Centre have become fully corrupted.

Liberal MP candidate tweets about me beating my wife

When a Liberal is caught being dishonest, they usually lash out like Dan Veniez did after I confronted him about being untruthful with this tweet:

You see, I knew he was paid as chair of Ridley Terminals and was given the appointment by PM Stephen Harper and subsequently fired.

No big deal really – just another Liberal not being honest but instead of retracting and correcting what he stated, he was embarrassed and tweeted this as I pressed him further:

For those unaware, Dan Veniez was the West Vancouver Liberal candidate who sued Conservative MP John Weston for libel during the 2011 election.

This is not the first time (or last I’m sure) that a Liberal has accused me of beating my wife but it is the first time one has done it online.

And I’m asked why don’t more people get involved in politics.
