in World News Trudeau goes to Rwanda while the Liberal Party burns
PM Justin Trudeau has decided to take a trip to Rwanda while the Liberal Party deals with yet another earth-shattering scandal that’s led to even more calls of resignation.
According to Trudeau’s itinerary, the PM will arrive in Kigali, Rwanda, later today at 5:40 pm. Of course, the media is invited to a “pooled photo opportunity” for the occasion.
There have been no reports on whether the former drama teacher and renowned costume lover will wear traditional Rwandan dress during his stay in Kigali.
Among the topics being discussed in Rwanda with other leaders will be African food security and Russia — all international concerns.
Meanwhile, back in Canada, the Liberals are facing yet another scandal, this time stemming from a Halifax Examiner report that RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki allegedly pressured her subordinates into jeopardizing the Nova Scotia massacre investigation to support Justin Trudeau’s incoming gun grab.
Indeed, the handwritten letter of an RCMP officer included in the report alleges that Lucki “promised” Trudeau’s 2020 Public Safety Minister and the Prime Minister’s Office that the RCMP would release information about the guns used by the shooter, adding that it would be tied to future gun control legislation.
As per RCMP Support Services Officer Darren Campbell’s handwritten notes that were reported yesterday: “The Commissioner said she had promised the Minister of Public Safety and the Prime Minister’s Office that the RCMP (we) would release this information. I tried to explain… we could not release this information at this time. The Commissioner then said that we didn’t understand, that this was tied to pending gun control legislation that would make officers and the public safer.” [Emphasis added]
To say this is a bombshell is an understatement. We reached out to Lucki for comment, and while she denies allegations that she interfered with the investigation, she says she regrets her conduct in meetings in the aftermath of the shooting.
