Juno News - Jagmeet Singh props up the Trudeau Liberals again

00:00:00.000 2,000 years ago, the price for betrayal was 30 pieces of silver when Judas Iscariot betrayed

00:00:11.920 Jesus Christ. Inflation being what it is, it now appears the price is north of $150 million

00:00:19.100 because that's what it will cost taxpayers for the liberal government of Justin Trudeau

00:00:24.400 to secure the support of Jagmeet Singh, the leader of the NDP, for the government's throne

00:00:29.600 speech, lest the country face a fall election. Singh seems to have no honor principles. In May

00:00:37.680 he was pilloried for supporting Trudeau's parliamentary shutdown. The National Post

00:00:43.240 Kelly McParlin said in a May 27th column, quote, Jagmeet Singh should be deeply ashamed of the

00:00:49.560 squalid little deal he's done with the Trudeau liberals to shut down parliament for another

00:00:54.720 three months, unquote. But he has no shame, and he has proven it yet again to Canadians

00:01:01.680 with this deal to support this flawed prime minister and his talentless government. There

00:01:09.040 is no plan for Canada to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic that virtually shut down the Canadian

00:01:15.520 economy. There is only a plan to spend more tax dollars that they don't have to prop up

00:01:22.340 their ideological causes with no sign of anything of necessity for the taxpayers who pay for all

00:01:29.460 the nonsense. The deficit in this country is rapidly approaching 400 billion dollars. That's billion

00:01:35.300 with a capital B. Our national debt is well over one trillion dollars. That's jaw-dropping territory.

00:01:42.900 Justin Trudeau paroded parliament on the thinnest of reasons to bring in a throne speech this week,

00:01:48.420 which contained about 7,000 words of absolute drivel. It was a waste of time for anyone to spend any

00:01:55.620 time watching it. And to heighten the abuse on Canadians, he demanded time on the major networks

00:02:02.020 to give a speech of, quote, national importance, unquote. Well, the networks gave him the time based

00:02:08.500 on that assurance, and he spoke for 15 minutes, saying the square root of bugger all. It was nothing more

00:02:15.620 than a political message for the Liberal Party of Canada. The Prime Minister prorogged parliament to try

00:02:24.260 and shut down the maelstrom that emanated from the WE scandal he is embroiled in. But that's not going

00:02:30.980 away. The Standing Committee on Finance will convene in a new parliament and will resume their investigation

00:02:37.460 and interviews into the whole sordid mess. The NDP had the opportunity to side with the Conservatives

00:02:45.620 and the Bloc Québécois and vote against the government and the throne speech, triggering a fall election.

00:02:52.100 But that didn't happen. Trudeau committed to spending at least an additional $150 million to placate

00:03:02.020 and buy the support of Jagmeet Singh and his NDP socialists. More spending of money we as a country

00:03:09.540 don't have. This is the relationship between Justin Trudeau and Jagmeet Singh. They were haggling for Singh's

00:03:17.140 support of Trudeau's beleaguered, incompetent, spendthrift government. And we now know what his

00:03:25.060 price is. For True North, I'm Leo Knight.
