REVOLVING DOOR OF INJUSTICE

Re: Convicted space engineer cleared to practise law while on parole, online, Oct. 8

Where is the justice? Having spent almost 40 years in law enforcement, I find it very difficult to recognize the deteriorating current justice system. The emphasis seems to be on getting those facing criminal charges or having been convicted of serious crimes back on the streets ASAP. So much for deterrence to others.

How can the Law Society of Ontario condone this practice? Since Justin Trudeau came to power almost 10 long years ago, serious crimes in Canada have risen. This is a direct result of Trudeau’s revolving-door justice system, including weak bail conditions and watered-down sentencing by judges acting more like social justice warriors than the adjudicators of the laws.

PM TO POOL BOY?

Expel our prime minister? He’s too vain and self-important to step down on his own; even his own Liberal Caucus wants him gone.

With all these diplomats being forced to leave Canada and India, any chance we can add Justin Trudeau’s name to the adios list?

Napoleon was sent to the Island of Elba to finish his days. Maybe Justin’s old Bahamas pal, the Aga Khan, needs a new pool boy?

TAKING SIDES

I wonder whose side these protesters would be on if Canada ever went to war with their homeland. Would Canada end up fighting a war on two fronts, home and abroad?

TERRORISTS, BUT NOW WHAT?

Canada has finally taken the position that, after hundreds of protesters were recently seen chanting, “Death to Canada,” the Samidoun group is now an official terrorist entity.

My important question is, what is all-powerful Prime Minister Justin Trudeau going to actually do to get these “official terrorists” out of Canada? Or is this just empty Liberal lip service from the do-nothing Trudeau, turning a blind eye to these terrorists who have just promised death to Canada?
