The decision not to call a public inquiry was wrong, is wrong, and will be wrong forever
There have been so many Liberal scandals that the public’s supply of justified outrage has been long exhausted. David Johnston should never have been given the (dubious) authority to make the determination he has made. Only in a spavined Parliament — robbed of its central power of the confidence vote by the cynical and nefarious deal between Jagmeet Singh and Justin Trudeau — could the travesty of the past few days been possible.
The Singh-Trudeau pact is itself anti-democratic.
