PM threatens Scheer with libel suit, April 8

The PM’s threat of a lawsuit against Andrew Scheer is doubtlessly the absolute best gift that Trudeau could possibly have bestowed upon the opposition leader, on this the eve of a federal election. Trudeau’s proceeding through the court system will essentially grant the Conservatives everything they were demanding in the SNC-Lavalin scandal from the very beginning, i.e. full and open disclosure by all parties concerned ... and, as an added unexpected bonus, under oath, too! Any second thoughts by the majority leader at this point will only be seen to be the furtherance of a deliberate Liberal coverup, as Scheer asserts ... Trudeau has obviously trapped himself ... Point to Scheer — well-played, Mr. Future Prime Minister of Canada ...!

Edward P. Swynar, Newcastle
