riggerrob 643 #1 Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) Last week, (Conservative leader) Andrew Scheer was caught using party funds to pay for his childrens' private education, so he was forced to resign as head of the Progressive Conservative Party and resign his seat in the House of Commons. If you did not know the back story, you would never have understood it by listening to his resignation speech. TV coverage started with a smiling (Liberal) Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ad-libbing and thanking Scheer with copious quantities of love and affection and admiration for all the good deeds Scheer had done while serving in Parliament, blah, blah, blah, etc. Then Andrew Scheer read from script about how he was stepping down to spend more time with his family …. and how important it was for conservatives to continue to support the federal party, blah, blah, blah, …. Yet politicians seem baffled as to why voters do not trust them??????? Edited December 17, 2019 by riggerrob spelling Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course disputed by the party, who maintains this was agreed upon and all relevant members in the party singed off on it. 19 hours ago, riggerrob said: Yet politicians seem baffled as to why voters do not trust them??????? Maybe voters need to do a bit more research and not just go by headlines? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
