YOU SAID IT: Cabinet without guts

CABINET WITHOUT GUTS

Article content

The Liberal cabinet is one giant, cowardly, empty black hole of leadership. No one has the guts to stand up to Justin Trudeau and tell him to his face that he is driving the Liberal bus off a cliff. These weak-minded Liberal cabinet members are more concerned about holding on to their high-paying posts than doing what is in the best interest of the Liberal party and Canada by standing up to Trudeau and saying he has lost the support of an entire nation.

These cabinet members could take a gumption lesson from the 52 Liberal staffers who have publicly refused to campaign for the Liberals in the upcoming LaSalle-Émard-Verdun byelection in protest.

Canadians, including some Liberal party members, will enthusiastically vote to throw out a disastrous Trudeau and his entourage of cabinet clapping seals.

PICKING AND CHOOSING

Re: Who’s marching for Afghan women? Editorial, Aug. 31

I completely agree. Many seem to pick and choose their so-called “genocide” accusations. They seem to jump at the opportunity to criticize the Israelis who are trying to rid the world of a terrorist group that hides behind women and children, yet fail to mention Russians, who, though unprovoked, continue to attack and kill Ukrainian civilians.

Gee, this selective choosing can’t just be due to antisemitism, can it? The word “disgusting” just doesn’t do this issue justice.

STAY HOME — FOR LESS

Re: Bid for remote work; Public service union launches $1M campaign as back-to-work deadline looms, Aug. 31

They were hired to work in the office. Go to the office. If they want to work at home, they should be willing to take a pay cut. Why doesn’t anyone ever bring that up?
