Why is there a publication ban on testimony that may topple the government? What would happen if Fox News just happened to report on the testimony and this stupid ban?
What are the Liberals afraid of? Why can't they stand up and act like men (and women) instead of hiding behind their daddy's robe?
Here's hoping the government falls and the Conservative Party makes enough inroads in Ontario to win a clear majority. It's going to be tough, though, since they'll win nothing in Quebec and little in Atlantic Canada.
I concur. Whenever a gag order is issued on proceedings in the USA, all the media outlets throughout the world are publishing the lurid details. Or is this another shining example of the world wide liberal press protecting their own (liberal politicians)?
Assuming they win 80 seats in the West (out of 92 possible seats), they would likely need to win at least 60 seats in Ontario and 10 in Atlantic Canada to be within striking distance of a majority (with 150 seats, they could use a few Liberal-in-name-only backbenchers to push their agenda unless Mr. Dithers uses the heavy hammer). That means their voice needs to resonate in the suburban 905 area code around Toronto and in northern Ontario. Some Liberal seats going NDP wouldn't hurt them either...
We Canadians call it "freedom of speech and of the press".
It's the Canadian way.
