Trudeau to Singh: "Hold my chardonnay and watch this!"
After all his booze, food, hair dye, etc is paid for by we taxpayers.

Its certainly better than nothing, and I'll admit I'm not fully read up on how it would/will work.It’s a mechanism allied countries use, and is also sort of comparable to the federal lobbying registry. It opens up regulatory and criminal enforcement mechanisms simply for working on behalf of a foreign state without registering, even if the lobbying you engage in is not itself criminal.

That was what I was specifically referring to, but even just thinking theoretically - what party would suggest changing the way in which they benefitted the most?
The kind of party that would think it got them more votes, and that they could Tenev later and not really lose anything after the election, and that the electorate would forget about it before the next election…
True. But, the left-er parts of Reddit and other social media have certainly not forgotten about the 2015 promise.The kind of party that would think it got them more votes, and that they could Tenev later and not really lose anything after the election, and that the electorate would forget about it before the next election…
That's freakin' me out because I can actually hear him saying exactly those words!
