Ex-Prime Minister Lobbying: Opportunism and Corruption?
©2016 by Raymond Alexander Kukkee
[caption id="attachment_3872" align="alignnone" width="688"]
Resigned Politicos and Lobbying : Opportunism and Corruption?
Harper Now On Pension —As a Private "Consultant" Lobbyist?
Is political lobbying opportunism and corruption? If CANADA'S Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is foolish enough to ratify the TPP "free trade' deal as it exists, AS it was so "deviously carefully" set up in such a rush by Conservative ex- Prime Minister Stephen Harper, —foreign national corporations will not only gain control of Canadian resources, but with potential lawsuits and damage claims for "potentially lost profit". Such threats, lawsuits and claims will essentially dictate, hamstring, and limit Canadian environmental regulations and standards. Worse yet, the "tribunal" to be used for settling such legal cases is clearly loaded against Canada.
Having now resigned, and going on *pension, has Stephen Harper set himself up to be Canada's richest and most successful consultant-lobbyist?
Has Harper Resigned with Opportunism and Corruption in Mind?
Mr. Stephen Harper recently resigned as an MP, and is starting his new "consulting" (read lobbying) business; Canadians have every reason to be skeptical and very concerned. Is Harper's future plan opportunism and corruption? How about a sell-out of Canada, and even treason? Mr. Harper will 'consult' with foreign corporations and governments. Why would he bother to do that, you ask?
Clearly, as a 'private' consultant, he will be in a position to enable foreign national corporations and states including Communist China to further take advantage of the Canadian TPP with insider information, timely advice, choice contacts, shady contracts, through questionable "friendships" established during his reign as Prime Minister of Canada. He will be exploiting working within the massive, sloppy, corporate-enabling and very questionable 'free' trade deal he himself RUSHED through parliament for approval prior to his resounding election defeat. Imagine how convenient...
A Prime Ministerial Legacy?
Is the T.P.P. a "Prime Ministerial" legacy for Canadians? We think not. The T.P.P. is closer to willful destructive entrapment and betrayal of the Canadian economy and loss of sovereignty. Mr. Harper is all too aware of what he is doing. Does that potential arrangement encourage kickbacks, sweet deals, or does this deal border upon bottom-shelf-quality treason? YOU, loyal reader, must decide. And soon.
The Instantaneous Reward
As a result of Mr. Harper's "resignation" from public office, there is little doubt there has been an instantaneous reward, a creative, devious and GREAT opportunity established for exploitation and further sell-out of Canada —an opportunity—created by Mr. Harper himself—*as he collects his $170,000 annual MP PENSION from CANADIANS—AND an additional $58,000 "Prime Minister's Pension" when he turns 67 years of age.
As an 'aside', we digress, dear reader, but cannot help but do the math and point out that Canada Pension for Ordinary Canadian retirees, seniors, all hard-working Canadians —is less than ONE-TENTH of the greedy, completely unwarranted, excessively FAT pension for DEFEATED, FAILED politicians, 'ex' Prime Minister or not. The reality and arrogance of political self-entitlement never fails to amaze, disgust, and anger ordinary Canadians.
A future Lobbyist at the Expense of Canadians?
Please do tell us if we're wrong, but we suggest any future involvement or lobbying by Stephen Harper will merely add insult to injury. Is consulting with foreign national corporate interests in matters where the Harper -devised TPP is involved—nothing but opportunism, corruption and worse?
It is a serious potential conflict of interest, overt hypocrisy, immoral, and at the very least, devious, poor ethics and un-Canadian. Canada CAN and should be able to DO BETTER FOR Canadians!
The Solution
Let us be helpful —as is our Canadian tradition, wish everyone the best of luck, —and suggest that "Canada's friend" Stephen Harper be prohibited from "consulting" or lobbying in any deals between foreign interests and our government in Ottawa —which include any and ALL resources including but not limited to free trade practices, the labour market, the energy sector, mining and minerals, water, food, transportation, pipeline construction, communications, or intellectual property in provinces or territories of Canada for the COMPLETE DURATION of Mr. Harper's shady "free trade deal"—however long it takes.
Are you listening, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau?
-
A special note......By the way, Americans should be paying serious attention to the T.P.P. as well --President Barack Obama is pro-T.P.P. The question must be WHY—when it is so clearly NOT for the benefit of average Americans or Canadians either. So —WHO is the beneficiary of the TPP? Think, people....
There. That ought to do it....

An Epic Failure as Trudeau goes Prancing in India
Being Snubbed is Never Enough Drama...
Being snubbed was not good enough. A 10-day vacation paid for by Canadians was not good enough. Suits were not enough. Costumes. Many were required. A dozen or more changes to overly-fancy, outrageously-expensive, special-event, traditional Indian costumes were not even good enough. No official 'welcome'? So there. We'll wear costumes. Let us make it even more ridiculous. We'll have our Prime Minister prancing in India. That ought to complete the 'selfie'.
Yes. Prime Minister Trudeau insisted upon prancing in India. In costume or out of, it makes no difference to "Justin the actor". Drama. Stroke the Ego. Teach the natives, ensure that Indians not only know how to dance and dress up, but how to perform their traditional dances with official ceremonial garb. Dance: the "lesson" of the day? To demonstrate how 'fun' we are, how 'flamboyant', just like 'daddy'? Bottom line, the ACT was an epic fail. Another epic Trudeau fail. A global joke. A disaster. Have Canadians ever made such fools of themselves on the international stage?
Fashion Note to Justin: Those red "Dorothy in Kansas " pointy girly-'Indian" slipper- shoes have to go, DoDo... yes, we are referring to you, Dodo....
The "Right Honourable'' Prime Minister of Canada?
Canadians expect civilized protocol, dignity, civility, and mutual respect from diplomats of other nations— AND equally, from our own Prime Minister. Why? Our "leaders" represent 35 MILLION of us out there on the world stage. Canadians expect dignity, and pride themselves at the level of respect usually offered to Canada and all Canadians abroad.
Were Canadians then surprised to see Trudeau's blatant, tasteless appropriation of culture and outrageous ceremonial dress of India? Foreign nation attire and culture as interpreted by
la femmeTrudeau....Yes, 'la'.Wow...how on earth did Canada ever degenerate THAT far? —To be rewarded with a "Prime Minister prancing in India? Making a jackass fool of himself? A laughingstock?A "Working Vacation" Deteriorates to Prancing In India
It all started with a vacation tour of India disguised as a 'business trip'. By now it must be considered "perfectly normal" for the Liberal self-entitled P.M. to haul Sophie and the "kids" along on any working vacation. To see the world. Become more cosmopolitan, more "peoplekind-ish". Like the controversial trip to the Agha Khan's soul-counseling-consulting Islamic resort. To learn how to enable Islam in Canada. A 'free vacation Which broke ethics laws. At the expense of Canadians. Right. Justin thinks he got away with that one. What else would be new for the elitist, privileged Trudeau —who has never worked a single day in his life?
But even for Justin... a 'work vacation' all the way to India without work? Without prearranged, scheduled meetings with significant representatives of the government of India? Oh, let's all have INCOMPETENT vacationing staffers and vacationing appointees 'arrange them when we get there, if we have time." Visiting a foreign nation on the pretense of foreign relations without having received traditional acknowledgement from the PMO of that foreign nation?
Wait, let's think about it. Which official 'head of state', man, woman, or superhero actually WORKING hard every day — would be interested in seeing Trudeau, a vacationing buffoon? Which dignified parliamentarian would wish to be obligated to entertain a delusional, childish actor from Canada? A replacement "Mr. Dressup" , or a dandy, a fancy drama teacher, an "irregular traveler, " a delusional fraud pretending to be 'working'?
[caption id="attachment_4170" align="alignleft" width="84"]Which self-respecting Prime Minister of any foreign nation would want to be seen beside a grinning fool, even IF the 'jester' was having 'fun' prancing the Bhangra in India? What was he doing, teaching Indians how to dance, too? Or was it another Trudeau subtle "joke" at which all "peoplekind" should marvel...at the 'wit' of Trudeau? India should be impressed with Justin's 'dancing'? Justin clearly thinks so, but we think not.
Lunch with Felons
It keeps getting better doesn't it?
[caption id="attachment_4166" align="alignleft" width="300"][/caption]
Let us all click our red heels together, Dorothy. We aren't in Kansas anymore. We're not in Canmore or Moosejaw. We're not in Northern Ontario . We are prancing in India...on 'vacation'. Where we can invite convicted felons like Jaspal Atwal to have lunch. It seems convicted criminals are specially invited to enjoy dining with the traveling jester.
Lunch...Trudeau denies inviting "Jas" and quickly tosses him under the bus —complete with his "friendship".
"Jas" has a different version, "They are good friends" Jas insists. After all, he gets to pose beside Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, the better half. Friends do that, don't they?
Imagine that... Trudeau's string-pullers insist India conspired to invite "Jas" to lunch, then Trudeau's minion, a Sikh MP decides to take the fall for Justin, swearing "he" did it. And he is oh, so sorry. As sorry as a humble Sikh can be. He apologizes. Right. Politicians are always sorry when they are CAUGHT. We ALL believe Trudeau the Compulsive,
taqiyya liar spinning fooland his appointee-minions, don't we?The Canadian-Indian Food-Taster Celebrity Chef
Lunch consisted of safe "real Indian food" prepared by Trudeau's one-and-only approved real-Indian-food-cooker-come-food-taster chef. 'Celebrity' Chef' Vikram Vij was flown all the way to India from Canada at the expense of Canadian taxpayers. Yes. Unbelievable. Why would that be necessary, you ask? To make lunch? India has not ONE celebrated chef in a population of billions?
[caption id="attachment_4168" align="aligncenter" width="225"]We thought about it and must conclude: "Trudeau decided to have Vikram Vij tag along to prepare lunch, just in case accomplished, celebrity Indian chefs who LIVE in India don't know how to make REAL Indian food...er, uh...er....or.. ...uh...ga...er.... a few might be tempted to add some extra hot 'spice' ...and do Canada a favour.
Poison works equally well for rats, traitors, and supporters of Khalistani separatists.Think, people, here at IncomingBytes that's all we ask...An Epic Fail
Regardless, the Trudeau's obscenely-expensive vacation to India was clearly an epic fail, perpetrated and demonstrated in a nutshell (really) by the ludicrous Prancing Prime Minister.
By the way, as an afterthought, the dignified, highly -respected and astute, intelligent and hard-working Prime Minister Modi of India —FINALLY took pity upon Justin and 'met' with him. And gave him the 'Modi hug'. Holding his nose, we suspect —for the dignity and lifetime memories of the Trudeau children.
Now the dramatic, incompetent and foolish Prancing Prime Minister of Canada has "insisted" the trip was a ga-ga success. More lies. Go figure. Where, oh where does Justin come up with so many creative lies and *costumes? After all, being snubbed is never enough...drama...
*Note to Readers: Since PM Trudeau was 'criticized' for dressing in numerous traditional Indian "costumes" --try this, dear readers.....Google "Trudeau Family at the Taj Mahal." How convenient that NOT ONE of the many, many photographs NOW shows the Trudeaus in *costume" at the Taj Mahal. Nice spin job removing the evidence... See what happens?
