Canadian news

Where have all the posters on here that like to post bad Canadian news stories gone?

They are missing stories like Conservative premier of Alberta Kenny calling for jailing protestors 

https://pressprogress.ca/jason-kenney-vladimir-putins-jailing-of-dissidents-is-instructive-on-how-to...

And what about Conservative Premier Ford in Ontario who has gone into hiding ahead of the upcoming federal election? He even prorogued the legislature until after the federal election so maybe people would forget about the dislike of his cuts to everything except the deficit.

Then the federal leader Scheer comes up with this for bigots

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/conservative-candidates-scheer-plane-1.5284304

and he campaigned in Ford's riding without Ford showing up 'good' conservatives that are afraid to be seen together.

And the Conservative candidate in Ottawa that associates with a right wing bigot but claims she no longer does even though there are pictures of them together recently. then leaves her campaign organized meeting 'to go door knocking' instead of answering reporters questions.

You guys are missing out on all these good stories.

The queen assigns them as best I can tell.  I checked on how many minority heads of state canada has had, didn't find a one.

Re: Canadian news

The Queen appoints a representative, the governor general, to carry out most of her federal royal duties in Canada.  Personally, don't really see why a need for the Monarch, nor her governor general.

Of course, we've seen evidence of what happens when the Queen gets the boot -- just look at all the reactions when the anointed one lost the US election.
