As a partisan hack who has never voted liberal, this train wreck has been hard to watch even for me. OMG, how inept is this government?

@Mike Hawke Welcome to the Circus

@Mike Hawke Trust that Gerald Butts, Andrew Scheer and everyone else who sits in opposition know that Jody Wilson-Raybould may have lost her mandate as Justice Minister because of her failings in Federal Court and the Federal Court of Appeal within my lawsuit against the Crown that was filed when Harper was the Prime Minister and Mr Scheer was the Speaker. Need I say that it irritated me big time when Jody appointed her Deputy Minister to the bench of Federal Court not long after I argued their minions in the Federal Court of Appeal?
Methinks anyone can check my work by simply Googling two names "Jody Wilson-Raybould David Raymond Amos" N'esy Pas?

David Amos @Mike Hawke Methinks truth is stranger than fiction and anyone can easily Google "David Amos Federal Court file No." in order to sort out the truth from fiction for themselves. Its blatantly obvious that Mr Trudeau had a duty to talk to Harper's Minister of justice and Peter MacKay and had them pay particular attention to info found within statement 83 of my lawsuit long before the election in October of 2015
Everybody knows why I am about to put the aforementioned matter before the Supreme Court and file several more lawsuits in the Federal Court against the RCMP and the CRA etc and also run for a seat in Parliament again N'esy Pas?

In the courts of public opinion Trudeau have already been found guilty......deservingly so.

Don't get your hopes up, people. She won't be able to say very much.
Then again, she doesn't really have to. Actions always speak louder than words, and the fact Trudeau has had two cabinet ministers and his closest aide resign this month says plenty.

As a public broadcaster, they should be required to post all words that trigger administration approval to be considered free speech.

Turned on CBC News Channel to find out what was going on. All I got was fifteen minutes of an interview with Liberal apologist MacEachern who gave viewers a full court press for the Liberals. So much for fact, and too much fiction!

@Bill Harrison Methinks its the same old MO N'esy Pas?

Finally we might, just might - be able to learn the truth.
On the other hand, we are dealing with the Trudeau Liberals here.

Wilson-Raybould to testify in parliamentary probe of SNC-Lavalin scandal
Former justice minister, bound by client-solicitor privilege, says she is still consulting with lawyer
Former justice minister and attorney general Jody Wilson-Raybould will be called to testify at a parliamentary committee probing the SNC-Lavalin scandal — but it's not yet clear how much she'll be able to reveal publicly because she's still bound by client-solicitor privilege.
Wilson-Raybould said today she is consulting with her lawyer about what she can and can't say, and his guidelines also will apply to her appearance before the Commons justice committee.
"I will appear, but as I said, I'm still in discussions with my counsel about the various privileges and confidences that I have," she said.
Wilson-Raybould resigned from the Liberal cabinet last week — but emerged from the cabinet room Tuesday afternoon after addressing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his ministers. Standing at the centre of a scandal engulfing the government, she conceded the situation is complex.
"The rules and laws around privilege, around confidentiality, around my responsibility as a member of Parliament, my ethical and professional responsibilities as a lawyer are layered and incredibly complicated. So I'm still working with my lawyer," she said.
A DPA — a legal measure similar to a plea deal — would have allowed the Quebec-based multinational engineering firm to avoid prosecution on bribery and fraud charges in relation to contracts in Libya.

Wilson Raybould speaks to CBC News at she leaves Question Period
Jody Wilson-Raybould leaves Question Period and is asked questions by the CBC's Chris Rands 2:39
Facing mounting pressure from opposition critics to waive client-solicitor privilege, Trudeau today would say only that he asked his new Justice Minister David Lametti to review the situation and provide him with advice.
Trudeau also said Wilson-Raybould made the request to address cabinet today, but would not divulge any details of what she said.
Wilson-Raybould was demoted to the Veterans Affairs portfolio earlier this month; she resigned cabinet last week, just days after the Globe and Mail reported that she was pressured to intervene in the SNC-Lavalin case.
Wilson-Raybould said today she remains a Liberal MP.
Trudeau has denied any wrongdoing, as has his former top aide Gerry Butts, who resigned Monday in a bombshell announcement.
I have given notice of motion at the justice committee to invite the Hon. Jody Wilson-Raybould to appear before the committee.
Asked today if she was pressured by the Prime Minister's Office, Wilson-Raybould said she is "still working with my lawyer."
Wilson-Raybould has retained retired Supreme Court justice Thomas Cromwell and has maintained she is limited in what she can say due to solicitor-client privilege. As the former attorney-general, Wilson-Raybould acted as the government's top lawyer.
