Regrettable: Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan said on CTV’s Question Period that he regrets what Norman went through but repeated the government line that at no time did politics influence the investigation: “I have a deep respect for everybody who serves… I regret that the fact that Admiral Norman had to go through [it]… I regret the fact that the system had to go through this. … But when something like this happens… you have to respect the independence of the process.

No way Huawei: Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer promised to de-politicize military procurement during his appearance on Question Period, while he repeated some of his foreign policy platform promises, like banning Chinese telecom giant Huawei from working on Canada’s 5G network.

Trudeau says B.C. money laundering report is 'extremely alarming'Justin Trudeau says a report out of B.C. on the extent that criminals are laundering their dirty money in Canada is absolutely unacceptable. extremely alarming but not surprising Wow , brilliant observation, WTF are you gonna do about it.............. If a Howe/Bay Street stock promoter offers you stock using such absurd numbers as generated by the 'gravity model' (see Appendix G of the main report) - run in the opposite direction. We all know money-laundering has long been a serious issue. Bogus numbers do not inform further.

Sajjan says he regrets the process Mark Norman had to go throughDefence Minister Harjit Sajjan says that he regrets what Vice-Admiral Mark Norman had to go through over the years-long legal battle that came to an end this week when federal prosecutors stayed the breach of trust charge he was facing. pure BS - now give him his job back cdnpoli What he really means is that he regrets the process Mark Norman may take him through Sajjan must have been too busy with his 'architecture' to do anything to ensure that Norman didn't get thrown under the bus... in my view this new found 'regret' is a dollar short and a day late...Sajjan should just stick with making up grandiose stories about his own importance

Andrew Coyne: Prosecution of Mark Norman is over, but questions the affair raised remainNorman’s guilt or innocence is only one aspect of this case; perhaps not even the most important one Shouldn't all these 'questions' simply be answered? Everyone involved is paid by the public. Adm. Norman, RCMP, Pub. Prosecution, all crown & court & discovery staff and now Ms. Henein given the Gov't stmnt of paying her fees. Why shouldn't taxpayers know where their billions go?

Opinion: The Mark Norman trial is over, but Justin Trudeau’s trials may have just begunThe breach-of-trust charge has been stayed, but the affair is not going anywhere – and it will continue to hurt the Liberals, fresh off bungling their SNC-Lavalin response GlobeDebate Look at Trudeau's approval rating, it is in the 20s, he is done. The media still trying to dance, spin and justify on behalf of Trudeau is a waste of time. Canadians see the truth and want Trudeau gone. GlobeDebate It’s clear Scott Brisson’s tried to Politically interfere and halt the contract, it’s also clear that 73 people knew and could have been charged but only ONE was-Norman. It’s clear Werenick or Trudeau ordered this as they would not turn over documents and then did with redactions GlobeDebate This is a CONservative scandal. Enjoy
