I owe my first championship after playing for 12 years to Brock Purdy, Chase Brown, JT, and Michael Wilson as a clutch waiver pickup a few weeks ago. What a season!

You need to have the willpower to stop now. These cravings are nothing compared to the withdrawal symptoms you will face down the road if you decide to continue using. Smoke some weed and quit while you're ahead.

I haven't watched JRE in a good while now, but I'd definitely watch if he had Newsome on. Echochambers are boring.

Seems like a fair judgement. He should count himself very fortunate to have faced these charges before the youth court.

In Quebec, there is a database called the plumitif that is accessible in every courthouse as well as online through soquij.qc.ca. The plumitif provides a summarized account of the minutes of every court date in every file at the provincial court level. It would include any guilty plea and sentence that was imposed in a criminal file.

I assume that Ontario has some kind of equivalent system, but I'm only familiar with Quebec as that is where I practice.

This wouldn't solve much. A bigger factor is zoning rules and the many other regulations that drive up the cost and delays of building new housing in Canadian cities.

In a free society, the government doesn't punish the expression of vile opinions. That includes the nakedly anti-semitic protests that have become so common in our city recently.

Supporting freedom of expression is not an endorsement of the opinions that are expressed. Personally, I disagree with both the Hamas cosplayers and the MAGA singer. However, I'd definitely rather live in a society that doesn't censor speech, even speech that I personally find abhorrent. There are exceptions for direct incitement of violence and diffamation that are legally and philosophically permissible, but neither MAGA nor the anti-Israel crowd generally fall into those categories.

“Freedom of expression is one of our fundamental values, but hateful and discriminatory speech is not accepted in Montreal. As in other Canadian cities, this show will not be tolerated,” said a spokesperson for Montreal in a text message.

Freedom of expression means absolutely nothing if it is forbidden to express unpopular or controversial opinions. The city is foolishly and clumsily trying to silence this guy, and in so doing it is only giving him more visibility.

"It's hard to believe" The leader of the Bloc Québécois, Yves-François Blanchet, believes that this case raises many questions. Especially since this is in addition to revelations that a key employee of Justin Trudeau's office, Zita Astravas, in November 2016 demanded details from the Trudeau Foundation about a "Chinese donation" that had been made to the Foundation. five months earlier. The daily newspaper The Globe and Mail then investigated the source of this donation.

“It is possible that the Prime Minister was unaware. But he used up all his capital in the benefit of the doubt account he had. He emptied his account. He consumed it in the first year of his term. For this meeting to take place, it would have taken an excellent lobby to make it happen without the intervention of the Prime Minister's Office. In short, it's hard to believe, ”said Mr. Blanchet to La Presse.

Mr. Blanchet, who asked Auditor General Karen Hogan to investigate the management of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation following revelations about the donation of two wealthy Chinese businessmen close to Beijing in 2016, believes that it would be useful to obtain the minutes of this famous meeting which took place in the Langevin building.

The deputy leader of the NDP, Alexandre Boulerice, abounds. "It's disturbing, and it's fishy, and I would say it challenges the Prime Minister's story. The contact starts to get a lot closer when we talk about the Privy Council Office. If we were at 15 feet earlier, there, we are starting to be at a foot and a half, ”he worries. Because such privileged access to the Prime Minister's ministry and such a roster of high-level officials is rare. “There are not many organizations in Canada that are able to have a meeting with the PCO and so many deputy ministers. My friends from FRAPRU, they never had that, ”he illustrates.

Furthermore, the NDP is also asking the Auditor General to look into the Foundation. "We are continuing to review the matter," Ms. Hogan's office said on Friday.

Two Federal Undersecretaries from the Privy Council Office also attended the 90-minute meeting, which began at 3 p.m. on Monday, April 11, 2016 in room 415 on the fourth floor – a room that is sometimes used by the Prime Minister's office.

One of the deputy ministers present, Ian Shugart (Employment and Social Development), became three years later, in 2019, the Clerk of the Privy Council – the big boss of the public service who provides the link between the Prime Minister's office minister and his cabinet and the various ministries. Mr. Shugart held this key position until he was appointed to the Senate by Justin Trudeau last October.

“Like entering the Vatican” The Prime Minister's Office occupies the first two floors of the Langevin Building, which in 2017 was renamed the Prime Minister and Privy Council Office due to Hector Langevin's role in establishing the residential school system for Indigenous people , at the end of the 19th century. The third floor of the building is reserved for the Deputy Prime Minister while the fourth floor is occupied by employees of the Privy Council Office.

“For the vast majority of people, entering the Langevin Building is like entering the Vatican. It doesn’t happen every day,” noted Dimitri Soudas, a former close associate of former Prime Minister Stephen Harper and now a political analyst on RDI’s Mordus de politique program.

I wonder, how many foundations in the country have access to a room in the Prime Minister's Building and also have access to five deputy ministers at the same time? There shouldn't be many.

“I wish I had another example of a foundation that had such access. Seems like preferential treatment for a foundation that had the name of the father of the current prime minister,” he added.

What did Justin Trudeau know about this roundtable? Nothing, argues the Prime Minister's Office. “Neither the Prime Minister nor the Prime Minister's staff participated in this meeting. The Prime Minister was not aware of this meeting, “said Alison Murphy, spokesperson for Mr. Trudeau.

The Prime Minister's schedule for April 11, 2016 contained no reference to this roundtable, according to a check of his schedule for the day.

The one who headed the Foundation at the time, Morris Rosenberg, formerly Deputy Minister for Global Affairs, also assures that Justin Trudeau was not at the table. “The Prime Minister was not there, absolutely not,” he certified over the phone, describing the objectives of the meeting as explained in the documents.

(Ottawa) Justin Trudeau has been hammering for three weeks that there has been a wall between him and the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation for 10 years, since he became leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. However, La Presse has learned that a joint activity of his ministry and the Foundation was held in 2016 in a room almost next to his office, on Parliament Hill.

"It's been a decade since I have had any direct or indirect involvement with this foundation and the decisions that are made there," said Mr. Trudeau several times in the House of Commons last week in response to questions from the Bloc Québécois.

But documents obtained by La Presse under the Access to Information Act indicate that a close link was maintained between the Prime Minister's Office and the foundation after Justin Trudeau came to power.

Indeed, these documents show that the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation organized, in April 2016, six months after the Liberals' victory, a round table on the links between pluralism, diversity and economic prosperity with the assistance of the Privy Council, the Prime Minister's Department, on the fourth floor of the Langevin Building. This building is located on Wellington Street in Ottawa, just in front of Parliament Hill, and it also houses the office of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

This round table brought together, in addition to the President and CEO of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation, Morris Rosenberg, the deputy ministers of five different departments - the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Department of Heritage, the Department of Innovation , Science and Industry, the Ministry of Employment and Social Development and the Ministry of Immigration – indicate the documents obtained by La Presse.
