RobynUrback let me get this right. So the PM does direc the rcmp?

Trudeau acts again to destroy rule of law in Canada. Communism.

KimJungTrudeau

Are you calling Skippy Ottawa now?

Who’d they call? The rainbow unicorn god?

Scared of paid, 'for rent' eco warriors? Start reporting facts and stop feeding the liberal, socialist agenda. BE CREDIBLE and start representing everyone, ALL, not just special interests.

Trudeau “interfered” in the Judiciary AGAIN!!! He TOLD the RCMP not to enforce a lawful court order by equating doing that with “force” in the media. Is Canada a “Banana Republic” since the PM ROUTINELY interferes in the Judiciary First with Raybould his AG then this....

The criminals dictate the rules ?

Trudeau said government doesn't tell the RCMP what to do?

Way to go ! Doing the right thing...finally x

Which is it! Yet more lies from TRUDEAU

Either, Trudeau Govt did NOTHING for 15 days OR Trudeau Govt hypocritically asked the RCMP to buckle under domestic terrorist demands TrudeauNotFitForOffice WorstCabinetEver

I keep thinking that the next big headline will be the cancellation of this project. I hope I am wrong

So I guess they can tell the RCMP what to do. Hypocrites and liars. Caving to domestic terrorism. A new bar has been set.

What a sad commentary on a once proud country !

But I was sure the king said they can't tell the police what to do.
