The title of Colonel-in-Chief isn’t merely symbolic. It can’t be wiped off a web page and forgotten. In fact, it’s not clear the Canadian government could rescind Prince Andrew’s appointments at al…

Prince Andrew, the much-disgraced Duke of York, stepped away from public life late last month in the aftermath of a disastrous interview on the BBC. In the weeks since, organizations around the world, including the prince’s old Canadian private school, have raced to cut ties with the bungling royal. His own mother reportedly cancelled his 60th birthday party.

It took a full week of questions from the National Post for the DND to confirm even that much about the scandal-plagued prince. The department refused to answer any follow up questions on the record. Todd Lane, Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan’s press secretary, meanwhile, said the minister wouldn’t comment at all beyond the department’s statement.

“The position of Colonel-in Chief is a symbol of a direct relationship between the Sovereign and the members of that regiment,” said Richard Berthelsen, an expert on the Crown and Canada. “It’s not like a patronage. It has a much deeper meaning. It is something that is official and is recognized in the Canadian Forces as having significant importance to history and heritage of that unit.”

What was he convicted of...what was he charged with?

So there’s a child rapist in charge of things in Canada? Why? How do we know he isn’t raping Canadian children too

Our racist PM got to keep his position and duties.

of course pretend PM, Skippy Bongstockings is in the picture....nobody loves & supports pedophiles more than he....memories of his father I suppose.

‘That’s a ripper Justin! You did that to that young bit in Creston? You bloody bounder you’!

One would assume the Queen noticed how our military & veterans are being treated & ignored by Trudeau's Liberals it would be a fitting role for him while going unnoticed by anyone who cares...

PEDOPHILE

Is the Prince really More disgraced than the many you cherish?

I see two disgraced men there Trudeau and Andrew...

pedophiles always protect other pedophiles

Trudeau quit protecting criminals -

'A Buckingham Palace spokesperson said: “It’s not for the palace to speak on behalf of the MoD or on assigning military commands.” In other words, CDS_Canada_CEMD is hiding behind 'royal appt' when in fact he is just shirking his duty for politics

That’s easily fixed

Should be done today. If mom does not trust you why should Canada

Canadians grasping at corrupt straws

Does this picture capture the moment immediately after PrinceAndrew gave his now infamous BBCNewsnight interview PrinceAndrewInterview

I hope this is corrected immediately. Symbolic leaders must be above reproach. Service men and women deserve this.

Trudeau knows that anyone who commits a crime is a victim. You know....like him.

What?

Baha. Nice try National Post.

Why? Dump him. Use the money we send to his mommy for our own people, for education, for clean water, for Canadians, not for some useless, spoiled brat and his clan. We can use someone else’s face on our money, we can let go of Britain’s apron strings. Why not?

Enjoying a joke about ?well I am sure everyone can add a good one to this photo.

The regiments must cut all ties to this pedophile..Royal or not..

We have a sickening and depraved minded PM who Im suspect of his own involvement with Epstein so, ZERO surprise here!

Andrew is probably saying, can you believe it, I got away with it and Trudeau will be replying yes, yes, me too.

Trudeau, in rare moment of one code of ethics fits all, gives Andrew the same pass that applies to him.

Shame on you Canada! This is a pedophile that isn’t even getting charged because he was born into a royal family!!! And you let him represent our country! That’s sick.

'Hey, as long as that child molester supports the Liberal party we're okay with it'.

justintrudeau hanging with another pedophile No big surprise I guess trudeauisadisgrace trudeauisapig TrudeauWorstPM TrudeauMustGo

Where was this photo taken? Epstein's Zorro Ranch in New Mexico or his mansion in Palm Beach?

This isn't surprising. The Order of Canada given to Peter Dalglish by Trudeau hasn't been revoked since his conviction for child sex abuse in Nepal. How many of our leaders and those living prominent lives have the same history as Prince Andrew?

Why are we under the thumb of this degenerate bloodline? ‘Tradition’? Time to scrap the connection to the this family. We dont need them. We dont want them.

We have a Royal Pedophile Unit?

JustinTrudeau loves terrorists and pedophiles, classy 🤡

ppclondonwest MeToo HimToo

Epstein sure was a popular guy.

Read people. News headlines don't give away all the facts. Almost every person tweeting on this post clearly didn't even read the article nore consider the fact Canada has no say in this matter unless we ditch the monarchy all together (we should imo regardless of pedo prince)

Let's still remind ourselves.... he faces accusations.... not charges!

No surprises here! Nice voting cdn sheep!!

Disgrace is our new norm.

When Canada re-elected blackface and all his past perversions were sealed, they proclaimed loud and clear that rich perverts are allowed.

He needs to be in jail

People kind see things differently. TrudeauMustGo

Disgraced?

Trudeau doesn’t care. Shameful

So sex predators and racists, got it. 2019 is weird.

No surprise there.

Child rapist

Of course. Trudeau doesn’t care.

This is more than just a 'royal penalty box', or a Queen's timeout. The article fails to mention he stayed many times at convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's East side NY building out of 'convenience' and never met his accuser. WellSheWasJust17 AndYouKnowWhatIMean

Surprised?

I’ve got your back and you cover my back ok.

What's your game here with this photo, NP? What a garbage 'news' source you are.

Couple of d-bags right there, and at least one pedo......

trudeau has abused and neglected the armed forces continually, I'm sure their getting used to it now...

We should get rid of that whole family

Oh that’s fine. Canadian leadership & disgraced go well together. Canada

That is an appropriate picture. The Groper and the Pedophile

Fits in well with the liberals then. Brofman's involved?

Canadian military warned about 'culture' of stealing within special forcesThe Canadian military has been warned about a “culture” of stealing within its special forces after equipment, including gun parts and ammunition, was taken from its high security counterterrorism … Nothing new, happens in any military around the world. People like that are Blades. You can’t trust them, don’t want them in your section, regardless of trade. He was a storesman. The guy left alone to look after military stores isn't the same as a special forces soldier.

Despite U.S. calls for more, Canada's defence spending set to stay the sameCanadian military spending is expected to remain stagnant this year despite calls from the U.S. to step it up. Who are we fighting? After 18yrs the Taliban is still active in Afghanistan. Russia has annexed part of Ukraine and only got a NATO scolding. As long as we have a standing well trained military that can help out when possible is good enough for me. Trump can pound sand. My utterly shocked face at that....
