Thankfully this issue is starting to see the light of day. It's been going on for decades, mostly in BC, but due to being labeled a racist it's never been talked about openly. That seems to have changed recently.

Just imagine being on the side of the communist’s who are responsible for the murder of millions of people.
Does that sink in or is your head made of rocks.

On the China file, Johnston fails the test of Caesar's wife — and he must know it
An executive would never be permitted to be in such a position
Does the conduct of our former governor general, David Johnston, in accepting the position of special rapporteur with respect to the Chinese government’s influence in two federal elections, a post that requires him to decide on the ethics of his friend and cottage neighbour Justin Trudeau, pass the purity test? Meaning, not only is he free of a conflict of interest, but is he “seen” to be “pure,” (i.e. unimpeachable) as well?
...
We know that Johnston is a family friend of Trudeau, that they are cottage neighbours, that Trudeau took ski trips with Johnston’s daughters in his youth and that Johnston had a prominent role in the Trudeau foundation, which itself received secret donations from a Chinese benefactor that it has had to give back.
But worse, as the National Post’s Terry Glavin has pointed out, Johnston has been involved in establishing the Confucius Institute, part of the Chinese government’s propaganda machine, and has received honorary doctorates from three Chinese Universities. Three of Johnston’s daughters also went to university in China and the board of directors of his own Rideau Hall foundation are, as Glavin put it, “a snapshot of the who’s-who of Beijing’s best friends and business partners in Canada.”
Looking at Johnston’s acceptance of this position through a legal prism then, given his history, both respecting his involvements both with China and our PM, there is little doubt that he would fail the test.

Obviously, Johnston has no integrity at all, or he would never have let himself be involved in this cover up attempt

The CEO and entire BOD of the Trudeau Foundation resigned. Could be some interesting developments coming out in the near future.
Trudeau said in a news conference "he has no intersection with the Foundation".

Trudeau Foundation rats jumped off the sinking ship, including the Turd's own brother.
David Johnston jumped directly under the Liberal bus wheels.
Stupid old man. He could have just retired with some honor left.
Now he will have the Trudeau stink all over him for life.
Added:
And the Turd's half sister too. Sarah Coyne was on the board with Alexandre Trudeau. All in the family!
I read this comment online and it is likely the true reason behind the entire board resigning:
"Let me guess: once the board resigns, all their email will be deleted because "policy," thus preventing any investigation before charges can be brought for destroying evidence."

Interesting read https://torontosun.com/opinion/colum...on-disappeared
I didn't know the origins of the foundation.
Quote:
The Trudeau Foundation was created in 2002 by the Liberal government of the day with a $125-million endowment. The goal was to create a program to rival the Rhodes Scholars program and, after 21 years, I’m not sure they can claim success on that front.

The only option to stop this kind of corruption is to implement tax limits, and debt limits on the government. We also have to shrink government and privatize most of the services. The free market is the ultimate form of democracy where people vote with their hard earned cash.

So today Trudeau's Rapporteur said no public inquiry.
Anybody surprised....lol.
Trudeau is at no fault yet again and is perfect according to Johnston. Trudeau doubling down and attacking anybody that dare opposes him again. The dictator narcissist is handling this scandal in true Trudeau fashion.
Jagmeet Singh, the only one with power to stop this painful charade, continues to sit on the fence. Rachel's boss proving his loyalty to King Trudeau yet again.

Other countries label him as buffoon, moron, dictator, fool, and more.
Here we label him, Leader.
Shameful.

It was a foregone conclusion, as soon as he was appointed .

I'm surprised he didn't conclude that we need to ban all semi-automatic firearms.

Or need to increase the carbon tax…
Not sure how a report from a lieberal shill changes the demand for a public inquiry (it doesn’t).

If only jagmeet wasn’t a Trudeau groupie, maybe he’d show a bit of integrity and get a non confidence going.

Socialists have no integrity, their life's work is taking from those that earn and giving it to those that won't look after themselves.

As per normal it will get swept under the rug. After all the corruption, confirmed ethics violations and scandals the Turd has been involved in and he is still the PM, this country is already screwed. If the NDP gets elected in the provincial election will be royally screwed. Getting it from both ends.

It's like asking the fox to guard the hen house. It was a foregone conclusion before it even started and Turd and his ilk march merrily on.

Johnston will find after his public hearings that Canada has a problem with systemic racism manifesting as anti asian sentiment. They will find a way to tax Canadians which will change people from racists into party loyalists and cult followers of Dear Leader.
Or some variation. Things are not good in Canada, and we need to make a learning lesson out of this. And it has to cost us. Only then will we be worthy of this PM.

So Johnston's roughly $1500 per diem, which is ongoing well into October and likely longer and likely more costly than that, enabled him to quantify just in time, on May 23, that a public inquiry is not practical because dealings between government and foreign entities cannot be made public. Well, that was money well spent...
I'm holding my breath untill October when he will release his earth shattering recommendations on how to insure our democracy will remain intact.
IDK, maybe that's how long it will take for the CCP to give him his orders.

Heard BOD quit because they didn’t want an audit.

There is really only one option vote for PP and if he fails at the task, then we become the 51 st State. Anything has to be better then following the elitest clowns in Ottawa down the the Commie trail.
Saddle up and move em out I say.

Why?
It’s just a group with difference of opinions, thoughts etc...
No worries......I don’t mind cuz they don’t matter
Interesting to hear a different perspective though.
