Thank you.
It was only a matter of time before the Liberal party imploded under Trudeau.
And look!
Freeland is back!
LOL!
What a sham and the Liberal party did it all to maintain their grip on the PMO and keep the Canadian people hostage.
Now let's see if the NDP does the same and screws us by not calling a vote.

Well aside from the complete moron at the helm of the USM right now, I have to say that George W. Bush wasn't exactly flirting with a mensa membership.
Yeah, but George W might’ve been fun at a party, or over a couple drinks. Trump has been back in the White House for two months & it’s already taking on a bit of an orange hue somehow?
Of course it is only for pissants , stay in your lane you ingrate . We will lead you to nirvana .

CTF urges the ending of the prime minister's second taxpayer-funded pension

Former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau could earn approximately $8.4 million from two government pensions, according to a Canadian Taxpayers Federation estimate.
Former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau could earn approximately $8.4 million from two government pensions, according to a Canadian Taxpayers Federation estimate.
The cash windfall former prime minister Justin Trudeau could collect from two government pensions is estimated at more than $8 million.
According to numbers crunched by a taxpayer advocacy group, Trudeau could rake in approximately $8.4 million from his MP and prime minister pensions.
Franco Terrazzano, the federal director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, said he is calling on all party leaders to commit to ending the second pension for prime ministers.
“Taxpayers can’t afford to pay for all of the perks in Ottawa and the government should start saving money by ending the prime minister’s second taxpayer-funded pension,” Terrazzano said in a statement Wednesday.
“Prime ministers already take a salary nearly six times more than the average Canadian and they already get a lucrative MP pension, so taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for a second pension for prime ministers.”
The MP pension for Trudeau, who turned 53 in December, kicks in when he turns 55 years old and begins at $141,000 per year. A second pension for prime ministers who have served at least four years will receive a special retirement allowance that begins at $73,000 at 67 years old.
If he lives to the age of 90, the CTF estimates Trudeau will receive a total of $6.5 million from the MP pension and $1.9 million from the PM stipend for a total of about $8.4 million.
The annual salary of prime ministers is $406,200.
“A prime minister already takes millions through their first pension, they shouldn’t be billing taxpayers more for their second pension,” Terrazzano said. “Taxpayers need to see leadership at the top and all party leaders should commit to ending the second pension for future prime ministers.”
The federation noted that former prime minister Stephen Harper forfeited an estimated $1 million to $2 million in additional payouts by implementing MP pension reforms in 2012.
The changes to government pensions increased the retirement age, cut benefits and saw MPs increase their own contributions.
However, the CTF estimate that Harper could still receive a total about $7 million in pension money over his lifetime.

As Mark Carney steps in as Justin Trudeau’s Liberal successor on the national stage, Marjorie Michel is set to take his place in Papineau, The Gazette has learned.
Michel, a Liberal insider and former deputy chief of staff to Trudeau, will run as the Liberal Party’s candidate in his soon-to-be-vacated Montreal riding, according to a source familiar with the plans.
Michel has not commented publicly about running.
Her candidacy comes as Canada prepares for a federal election, which is expected to be called on April 28 by newly elected Prime Minister Carney.
Papineau, a densely populated and diverse riding, has been a Liberal stronghold since its creation in 1947. Trudeau first won the seat in 2008. The riding is home to about 110,000 residents and includes gentrified neighbourhoods and significant South Asian and Hispanic communities.
Michel, the daughter of former Haitian prime minister Smarck Michel, is a seasoned Liberal strategist.
Her career began in 2016 as a policy adviser to Jean-Yves Duclos, later serving as his chief of staff. In 2019, she became the first Black chief of staff in the Trudeau government, according to The Hill, staying on when Duclos became Treasury Board president before moving to the PMO.
She went on to lead the Liberal Party’s Quebec operations in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections before joining Trudeau’s office in 2021 and later becoming deputy campaign director of the party.
