Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

Being conspiratorial about it is a personal choice. Treachery under every stone.
A suspicious mind is a healthy mind.

Do you legitimately think he just randomly checked with the ethics committee if he can do a 1-week vacation for no real reason at all,

or

he's doing something that when it eventually gets brought to light will leave questions about whether it was ethical or not to do? Such as meeting certain people or staying at a 'friends' place.
 
Or he's meeting with friends in very senior governmental / corporate positions from various parts of Italy and getting it squared away in advance.

Yeah I figured he might be visiting friends who are skookum muckamucks and wanted to make sure everything was ok, and avoid the jackpot Trudeau got into with the Aga Khan.

PMMC clearing stuff with the ethics people first shows way more respect for his office and Canadians in general than his "I didn't know any better" predecessors.
 
That petition is dumb. Dude’s job is to represent his nation’s interests in Canada and to carry out engagement and diplomacy. He’s doing that job. What we don’t like is the underlying policy and diplomatic approach.

At least through him we get a really good eye into what the administration wants here, through a not-too-thick filter.
Not declaring someone who represents the largest potential threat to your country, actively threatening your sovereignty persona non-grata is dumb.

I think it’s a bit late to kick him out, but the day he made those comments or the day they learned of them he should have been sent packing.

Yeah he might be representing his masters but that doesn’t mean we need to tolerate such disrespect.

And then they send someone else who says the exact same things. You’re not thought this through. Maintaining diplomatic relations may mean accepting the said diplomat will say stupid shit. This is a cutting off nose to spite face sort of thing.
 
I think the best thing we could do - we as in everybody; governments, media, corporations, is to just ignore him.

Sometimes you need to cut off diplomatic relations to prove a point. When you reach a red line (and suggesting annexing your country is one of them IMO) you need to make it very clear they passed it and not to again.

Otherwise why even have persona non-grata? Why not just let anyone walk all over us, clearly we lack the stomach to do anything about it.
