    1. @Tim McNamara Let’s debate about walking on water.
      You can walk on a melting iceberg, until its only water. At that point, you’d have to swim that much further to get to the shoreline, swimming past your partly submerged previously known coastal residence. Don’t you agree?
      I meant if you didn’t have a boat with or without a paddle..

    2. Now he has to be convicted. Big difference. We can only hope being Canadian. I personally demand he be convicted. Pass it on.

  1. If you believe in “EVERYONE must follow our laws” or “No one is above the law”, then this matters. I seriously question a voters morals that would reward Trudeau.

    1. Richard C AHAHAHA what exactly is that? Dancing Bollywood style, weekends with uncle Agha on his Island, fake feminism, PeopleKind or donations for non prosecution with SNC Lavalin. Liberalism in Canada is nothing more than a sell job to the less fortunate in brain cells.

    2. Richard C Don’t like Scheer? Vote for anybody but Trudeau. He’s a liar and thinks he’s above the law. Do you want to further empower a criminal?

    1. @J B Justin Trudeau will beat himself with all his lying and ethical violations. He has lost the moral authority to govern

    2. @J B Scheer obviously. Once the RCMP completes their investigation which Trudeau keeps suppressing, the liberal party will choose a new leader

    3. @Yvette Sanderson The whole liberal party was either involved or supported the corruption. Vote the LPC into non-party status.

  2. The biggest scandal in Canadian political history. This is where we either draw the line against corruption or we allow Canada to turn into a banana republic.

    1. I think the Mark Norman affair might have been even more scandalous than SNC-gate, but the government used our money to make it go away–for the time being anyway.

    1. Scheer is Drumpf light. he promises a reduction in taxes but says nothing about the subsequent cut in services and another step to private medical plans.

  3. If this does NOT impact the election…then we have a VERY serious moral and ‘ETHICAL” matter on our hands…pun intended!

  4. SO…
    according to Liberal way of thinking: I purchase a Porsche with borrowed money and I can not make payments. This makes me very successful person.

  5. Strong economy? Not out here in the West. I work 3 jobs in order to afford the basics. All I see from the federal government is Trudeau’s hand in my wallet.

  6. So, the pundits don’t think that the $650 million dollar handshake for the MSN, the mess with China and an RCMP investigation into the conspiracy regarding SNCL and potential charges of obstruction brought against Trudeau, who lied to Canadians from the very beginning of this travesty, will have any effect on this election ? Are Canadians really that blind ?

  7. If Canadians with brains have any pride or integrity, it should impact the election. Baby cakes Trudeau lied and covered up more than he told the public. Do we want this liar and cheater in charge of this country?????? We’re better than this. He isn’t worthy of the office any longer. Let’s get rid of him.

  8. Typical main stream coverage. The biggest issue needs to be the fact that Trudeau is morally and ethically unfit to be PM.

  9. The SNC-Scandal WILL impact the election. RCMP must start knocking on the Liberal Parties Door. It will be a SAD day for the Liberals.

  10. The reality is ,We in the western provinces,refuse to be
    governed, by a liar, And as far as were concerned, He is guilty of criminally obstructing Justice ,Were all well aware that the RCMP,,,,have fallen short on properly protecting Canada,These litigation’s involving mr Trudeau, and several other of his members, should have been dealt with prior to the election ,,,,,Again we in the west refuse to be governed by a liars and criminals,,,,IF Trudeau WINS,,,, THE west SEPARATES FROM QUEBEC, AND TRUDEAU,,,,,And there on their own,

  11. Craig Oliver “Trudeau has best job figures for generations”.
    He conveniently omitted to say 70% of those jobs are PART TIME!
