I smell a scandal in the works.

He is right

acoyne Good.

a complete failure

Good riddance.

This guy helped promote the opioid epidemic, which has killed tens of thousands of Canadians. His work is under the spotlight in Congress. This should be mentioned, at the very least, out of respect for the families that lost loved ones.

The U.S secured their release, not Barton.

Perhaps the new ambassador will be the leader of the 'independent' faction in the Senate, Yuen Pau Woo, who could be appointed by his 'independent' parliamentary colleague, J. Trudeau.

And a huge cheer goes up from coast to coast to coast as chief toadie and ass kisser extraordinare to the CCP is recalled by the very party who sent him and have misread the China file as badly as it could be. Another Trudeau Foreign Policy failure. cdnpoli hilltimes

Letters to the editor: 'Why we stopped watching the CBC'‘Strike CBC from our language’ Re: CBC’s 18 words you can’t say is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard, Jesse Kline, Dec. 1 Yeah some of these are childish and annoying. Soon the far left will ban speech altogether. cbc is far too woke for most. They are the media division of the liberal party. They have lost all relevance. With people like RosieBarton on the air people will continue to turn them off. them and radio too actually dont even have a tv ? dont miss it

U.S. congressman posts family Christmas picture with guns, days after school shootingA U.S. congressman on Saturday posted a Christmas picture of himself and what appeared to be his family, smiling and posing with an assortment of guns, just days after four teenagers were killed in a shooting at a Michigan high school. Too funny. It's stupid. Wouldn't expect anything else In poor taste - but gun ownership and choosing their own Christmas card is entirely within their rights as American citizens. Maybe we all want to go the China way? Where we have no rights and decide nothing for ourselves? Up to us I guess. This is about as sick as it gets. So much for 'Peace on earth'.
