And he is running to be PM. He can't be trusted with secrets

Classified info can't be shared on Twitter?? What is even the point!?

Right? Look I should be allowed to sell out canadian secrets to our enemies. It's my 1st amendment right! Free speech!

Not sure what the first amendment of the canadian Constitution has to do with free speech...

Can hardly wait for our days with Trump wanna be Jr.

Buddy is going to figure out the hard way day 1 that there's more to leading a country than hurling insults at others. But then will just carry on doing so, while everything else melts around him.

Hopefully a good couple months of watching what's going on down south will smarten every one up, but I have zero faith and a whole lot of doubt that it will.

Long story short, PP refuses to get his security clearance because he doesn't want to be "gagged".

He was offered a special pathway to getting the briefings that didn't involve a mandatory security clearance.

But, after finding out that he still would not be able to share classified information with others, he's backing out again.

Sounds like a real winner

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I'm surprised he doesn't just lie to get the clearance, the little pencil prick

CSIS probably sat down with him specifically.

See a paywall, down vote a paywall.

And this is why the advertisers own the Internet now

The News should be paid for with tax money, not advertising dollars or subscription fees.

Or just use a bypass paywalls plugin and never see them again.

Bypass Paywall Clean for Firefox is the one I use

It's so he can use the "I had no knowledge of that" excuse when something suspicious is inevitably discovered about him or his campaign

And also, "Why won't the opposition release details on this? I'm as in the dark as the rest of you citizens because those in power don't want us to know." But if he had the clearance and the briefings, he wouldn't be able to say that shit.
