The Trudeau Liberals corruptly disregard the impartiality of Judicial appointments in Canada and show contempt for Canadians


On July 2nd, 2019, it was reported that friendships and cronyism have tainted the federal Liberal appointment of  five of six judicial appointments during the last year because of connections to Dominic  LeBlanc, MP and Liberal Cabinet Minister. The appointments included a neighbour, a relative and three lawyers who helped retire debt from LeBlanc’s unsuccessful 2008 leadership campaign.

As usual, no reasons were revealed to justify the appointments.

Whether or not federal appointees to Canadian courts are qualified, the process of appointment is the same as it has always been where the Liberals are involved:  based on cronyism and ideology. In Canada, the effective rule is - "Corruption - Thy name is Liberal".

The stink from this kind of corruption taints the judges as well as coats the entire court system with the slime of corruption, whether or not the judges are honourable and competent persons.

In the past, some of the appointees who were so chosen turned out to actually be honourable and competent judges.  But, in these days of so-called "progressive-liberalism" and political correctness, and of judicial activism, revealing ideological prejudices of the judges in their decisions, it is more important than ever that the appointment process be transparent.

Canadian judicial appointments should go through a public non-partisan vetting process that at least has a chance of weeding out candidates who are cronies or are activists with an agenda.  Given the lying nature of most politicians, particularly those in power, Lametti's Press Secretary's words in the story truly ring hollow.

The Russian dictator, Putin, is laughing in his vodka at Canada and the U.S. for their continued drifts away from democracy.

Liberal Corruption - Corporatism (fascism) - Contempt for Rule of Law

William Watson's article in the Natiopn Post - William Watson - Scandals like SNC-Lavalin happen by letting unqualified politicians 'champion' businesses - is a must read.  The article is found at:

https://business.financialpost.com/opinion/william-watson-scandals-like-snc-lavalin-happen-by-letting-unqualified-politicians-champion-businesses

What's missing from his article is the following:

"The only thing Mr. Watson left out of this otherwise excellent article is the fact that the Trudeau government snuck through Parliament a special piece of legislation (Bill C-74 - (Royal Assent)
June 21, 2018) amending the Criminal Code to create a special provision to relieve their friends, the big 'national-champion corporations of the consequences of economic offences they have committed  while doing business. Trudeau's sneaky Omnibus bill of hundreds of pages of the most obscure and turgid statutory garbage was extremely difficult to find, even after an hour's work, and only if one persisted because they knew it was there, somewhere.

The bureauc-rat's summary was - "Division 20 of Part 6 amends the Criminal Code to establish a remediation agreement regime. Under this regime, the prosecutor may negotiate a remediation agreement with an organization that is alleged to have committed an offence of an economic character referred to in the schedule to Part XXII.‍1 of that Act and the proceedings related to that offence are stayed if the organization complies with the terms of the agreement." 

What this means is that a special deal could be reached with the government saving their corporate friend's asses from the results of a full, public prosecution. 

No matter what SNC-Lavelin did, it was a lot less horrible or corrupting to Canada than this legislation.  This is an example, as any honest political scientist or economist would tell you, of fascism - which, aside from the abberation of the crazy murdering gangs of thugs (Hitler and his National Socialists) we normally think of as at the true heart and soul of fascism, it is the state in league with its big corporate friends.  This is Corporatism, a key component of fascism.  Of course, the population, our hapless voters, had no clue what Trudeau was up to, nor did the gang of incompetent and feckless journalists who are supposed to report on stuff like this to justify their existence.  This is the real crime revealed by the super-scandal of the Trudeau government."
