The Trudeau Liberal Hall of Shame megathread continues 🧵. It was getting a bit long in the tooth, so let's split this up a bit and call this Part 3 - the 'C' team.

Today's inductees include Bardish Chagger, George Chahal, and FP Champagne, so it should be a good one.

153) One of the most useless Trudeau government ministries is the Ministry of “Diversity and Inclusion and Youth,” and so it only makes sense that the most useless ministry would have the most useless minister. Enter Bardish Chagger.

154) It would probably be difficult, now, to trace back exactly when Canada's House of Commons became a dysfunctional fracas, but if one pursued such an endeavor they might look the way of when Waterloo MP Bardish Chagger became the Trudeau Liberal House leader in 2016.

155) In his earliest days as Prime Minister, PMJT made a point of promoting women to positions they weren't qualified for or deserving of, in a vain attempt at promoting himself as a fake “feminist" - in spite of Trudeau being a serial groper. Based on her genitalia and melanin complexion alone, Chagger - who had no previous experience in politics whatsoever and having just recently dropped out of nursing school - fulfilled all the qualities Trudeau was looking for (no penis).

156) Chagger isn't just useless, she's also coarse, rude and dishonest. Her time as the House Leader was characterized by chaos, corruption and disorder. If one were seeking a superlative example of a possible diversity hire gone awry, I might suggest that they look to Chagger.

157) Even Trudeau has grown disenchanted with Chagger. Despite filling all the prerequisites for a high profile ministerial position (no penis), Chagger has been repeatedly demoted. She doesn't even hold a cabinet position anymore and her X account has gone largely inactive.

158) If we can thank Chagger for just one thing, it could very well be strapping a space rocket to Pierre Poilievre's political career. Poilievre was the MP who took Chagger to task during the WE scandal.

159) Youth Minister Bardish Chagger was the key driver in the Liberal government's decision to have WE Charity administer a multimillion-dollar student-volunteer program. WE had long ties to Trudeau and his family, including paying close relatives to appear at WE events.

160) Trudeau’s government gave the charity a large sum of money ($19.5 million) to run the $900-million program. Here’s the rub: Trudeau’s family had financial ties to WE Charity, who paid both his mother and his wife six figure sums for speaking engagement fees. Chagger either didn't do her research or didn't care.

161) Either for implicating Trudeau in this clear conflict of interest or for rocketlaunching the political career of Poilievre, Chagger has been demoted repeatedly by Trudeau. As Sen. Plett says: “When you are so bad even Justin Trudeau thinks you're bad, you've hit the bottom.”

162) Let's open the mailbox on George "The Porch Pirate" Chahal.

163) In Sep. 2021, the Calgary Police's Anti-Corruption Unit announced that they were investigating Chahal over a doorbell camera video that showed him thieving a flyer for his Conservative opponent from a constituent's door on the eve of the election.

164) Sooner than an apology, Chahal took on the role of the victim in this story. He quickly thereafter shared several awful, but ridiculous and kind of hilarious voicemails, he'd received repeatedly (from one unnamed person) in response to his transgression. This is nuts.

165) Let me be perfectly clear: these types of voicemails are totally unacceptable. A Mount Royal political scientist says, “That type of language is hate speech and it can be prosecuted... It's also criminal harassment. I mean, he's threatening to kill people.” I agree.

However, stealing the mail is also a criminal offense and being a porch pirate is also against the law. And for his crime, accepted and paid a $500 administrative penalty for the incident. I hope his criminal harasser is likewise brought to justice.

166) François-Philippe Champagne is the MP who looks like he's just walked out of a wax museum display case. Champagne is notorious for screaming unintelligibly in the House of Commons in fits flurries or outrage and anger - unusual and bizarre behavior from an incumbent.

167) Champagne sets the tone for the circus that is the Canadian Parliament. Here's just a small sample of Champagne's theatrics, as well as a classic clip of Poilievre calling him a "turkey" before being reprimanded by the partisan Liberal Speaker of the House, Greg Fergus.

168) In selecting a foreign minister, a reasonable PM would seek someone who acts with integrity and whose hands are clean of any perceived or actual conflicts of interest. So of course unreasonable Trudeau selected Champagne for the job, who owed the Bank of China $1.2M.

169) Champagne's argument is that he took out the mortgages with the state-owned Bank of China to purchase two residences in London long before he was an elected MP. Fair enough. Circumstances changed, however, after Champagne became the foreign minister, and were particularly relevant since two Canadians, including a former diplomat, were being held hostage by China in a move seen as retaliation for the detention of a senior Huawei executive in Vancouver in 2018.

170) Someone compromised by a foreign power such as Communist China would make a foreign minister much like Champagne. He used the two Michaels as leverage in favor of whitewashing other controversial actions from the CCP, warning his colleagues in the House of Commons that any criticism of Beijing would hurt the two men and their potential freedom.

171) Under the watch of Champagne in Mar. 2021, the two Michaels were found guilty of spying in China. Kovrig was imprisoned in Beijing and awaited sentencing. Spavor was sentenced to 11 years in prison in Dandong.

Conditions were unspeakably harsh. Their cells were dank, windowless, and packed with other prisoners. Their food was bad, medical help scant, and exercise was denied. Lights were left glaring 24 hours a day. They were allowed and received only a few phone calls and sporadic visits from Canadian diplomats.

172) Despite regularly hinting that a release was imminent, the two Michaels never were let free while Champagne served as foreign minister. Counterintuitively, rather than working to secure their release, Champagne would use the two Michaels as bargaining chips to reduce CCP criticism in the House.

On a positive note, during the peak of the pandemic and record-low interest rates, Champagne announced that he had fully refinanced his mortgages from the Bank of China. There's still no word, however, on what his mortgage penalties were or if his mortgage penalties were waived given the circumstances.

173) After proving to be an object failure as foreign minister, François-Philippe Champagne was then tapped for minister of international trade - because in the Trudeau Liberal caucus, up is down, left is right, one plus one equals three and failure is the ultimate success.

174) Just a few months ago in Dec. 2023, a whistleblower and former employee who worked at Sustainable Development Technology Canada from 2020 to 2022, showed his face during his testimony at a committee but on the condition their name wasn't revealed - then dropped a bombshell.

175) SDTC is under the purview and authority of Champagne. The whistleblower noted and a later report confirmed that SDTC had accountability problems, “culture issues,” “retention challenges” and does not keep a record, verbal or written, of complaints or whistleblowing.

176) In response to the complaints, the president of the board of directors resigned after being the subject of an investigation by the ethics commissioner. She admitted to having approved more than $200,000 in subsidies to the company NRStor, which she runs. Champagne stayed on.

177) Champagne justified staying on as the minister by suspending the funds pending an investigation. To date the investigation, conducted by an outside law firm hasn't been fully completed, isn't on public record and has resulted in no changes to SDTC whatsoever.

178) Any conversation about the many missteps of François-Philippe Champagne would be incomplete without mentioning NextStar. The Canadian government, on advice from Champagne, agreed to provide a subsidy of roughly $16.3B to restart work on a stalled battery factory in Windsor. The project is being undertaken by NextStar Energy, a joint venture between South Korean battery maker LG Energy and automaker Stellantis.

Champagne justified the billions in taxpayer funded subsidies under the premise the plant would create thousands of Canadian jobs. However, it quickly became apparent that the plant was creating just as many jobs for South Koreans. Within months, at least 900 Koreans came to Canada to fill positions in the plants.

179) Whether it's negotiating for hostages, jobs or for his place in the House of Commons, François-Philippe Champagne has a record of zero victories and countless defeats.

His riding, Saint-Maurice—Champlain, is a three-way dog fight between him, the Conservatives and Bloc.

180) Caesar-Chavannes is a Whitby MP who once served as the prime minister's parliamentary secretary. She had been an outspoken supporter of Wilson-Raybould and Philpott but dominated the headlines after exposing Justin Trudeau as a closeted racist and fake feminist.

181) Then Conservative MP Max Bernier accused PMJT of being racist with "racially sensitive spending projects" and Chavannes - then a Trudeau Liberal MP - proved him right and earned her way onto the Liberal Hall of Shame by adolescently demanding Bernier "check his privilege."

182) To the entertainment and amusement of many Canadians, Chavannes' anger redirected towards her own boss next. Caesar-Chavannes said Trudeau - who she described as "Fake as Fuck" - tokenized her. “I had to ask him, ‘Motherfucker, who the fuck do you think you’re talking to?”

183) Caesar-Chavannes joined Jane Philpott and Jody Wilson-Raybould as some of the first women to leave team Trudeau after he exposed himself as a fake feminist. She said he "spoke to her like a child" and acted/behaved "as if he owned her."

184) Sophie Chatel is too good for the Trudeau Liberals. She received a Bachelor of Laws and later a Master of Taxation. She is also a member of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada. So, of course, she's been given zero responsibilities or authority whatsoever.

185) Chatel even bravely questioned her own party and the government's safety minister on Bill Blair's wacko gun laws that we've already covered ad nauseum. Chatel is inducted to the Hall of Shame on her continued unwillingness to denounce Trudeau and to call for his resignation.

186) I call Pam Damoff "The Vulva Lady."

187) We'll get to why I call Pam Damoff "The Vulva Lady" later. In the meantime, allow me - if you will - to just quote her:

"I've been called a traitor... That the government is corrupt... And I often say to people: 'take a look at Afghanistan.'"

188) There are so many gaffes and embarrassments relating to Pam Damoff that I made her a highlight reel. In the first exchange, she validates Randy Boissonnault's paranoid delusion about a "threatening vehicle" parked across the street from his home. Maybe it's the other Randy?!

189) Indeed, Damoff is obsessed with vaginas and vulvas- that's strange, but fine, I guess. For most of you, though, Damoff will probably look familiar, as the lady who appeared to have an Ambien overdose after while enduring an Omar Alghabra monologue on abortion.

190) Damoff says she is "leaving politics." She says she's leaving because of "toxicity" - without actually leaving. Based on the polling in her riding, I'm not sure what she's waiting for.

191) If Damoff has at least one redeeming quality, it's that she's gone to hilarious efforts to respond online to those who criticize her - reporting them, demanding apologies, snapping back at them angrily. She's basically the Amy's Baking Company of the Canadian Parliament.

192) The issues of mass immigration, immigration fraud, and Khalistani extremism are all top of mind right now for many Canadians. So it's only fitting that our next inductee to the Trudeau Liberal Hall of Shame should be Sukh Dhaliwal.
