How very socialist of this thread.
Free markets do not work across borders. Different countries have different laws, tax rates, labour prices, environmental regulations, labour standards, etc...

Free markets only work when everyone is playing by the same rules.

From denying any knowledge to now saying it was an interrogation gone wrong.

Typically torture is an interrogation gone wrong.

Interrogations that require bringing a bone saw often go wrong I'd imagine.

That's an interesting explanation. Is dismembering the corpse and pre-ordering a bunch of cleaning supplies before the murder probe an "oops" moment too?

They had a video of the cleaners coming in on CNN. You'd think they would have used the mops in the embassy first... Talk about Oilering things up!

Let's just say that JT's priorities are different than the best interests of the country.

I do know people that have personally interacted with JT, let's just say any impressions you have of him have been created purely by the Liberal Party.

If global warming isn’t a good enough reason for you to move away from burning oil and gas, giving the world a reason to ignore Saudi Arabia should be.

And the impressions you have of him have been created purely by your friends?

Do you really believe that only right-wing politicians are sociopathic ninnies?

Is it at all possible to keep the stupid irrelevant Canadian partisan bickering out of this thread? Please?

Yes would have ,my apologies, grammar isn’t always up to par when multitasking.
As for what I think of him, well didn’t vote for him last election and won’t be the next, but as the saying goes, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. It just seems petty to condemn one person you don’t like for doing something that the person you support does.
