revrnd Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 I like this quote & comment of the NP's Faceplant page: "In mid-July 2016, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau contacted the Aga Khan’s daughter to inquire whether her family could return to the island over Christmas." I was taught that it was bad manners to "invite" yourself to someone's home. No class or greedy? - unethical has already been proven.

The only place I invite myself to is my brothers and likewise he invites himself to ours. I wouldn't dream of imposing like that on anyone.

Poncho Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Is Chaka Khan related to Aga Khan????? LOL...the other reason Justine wanted to holiday at Chaka's house is they could smoke up without being caught. Chaka is a major dope smoker and Justine is a pot head. That place allowed them to Failout all week long. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sksman Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Fail do you truly see nothing wrong with the PM of Canada being engaged in meetings in 2016 with a billionaire who is lobbying for millions for his charities and then after Canada gives millions to Aga foundation Trudeau accepts a luxury vacation? How many times did Trudeau talk to Aga Khan in 30 years? Zero How many times did he go on vacations with Aga Khan in 30 years? Zero Becomes PM and first year big free vacation. Conflict and PM should have to payback Canadian Taxpayers the $215,000 it cost. That would eliminate future conflicts pretty quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Sophie's girls only vacation back in March prior that prompted this mess for Trudeau. Kick her to the curb, she's high maintenance.

Then maybe Canada will give you some more money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Sherman and now Aga Khan. Trudope's ego must let him think he is above the rules and even if he gets caught it's only breaking the rules. He doesn't get fined or face jail so who cares. Even if there was a fine, he would just pay it and shrug it off.... after all he's Trudope and special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like Bill and Melinda Gates have the Gates Foundation. Bill retired from Microsoft to manage the Gates Foundation. Bill lobbies his similarly wealthy friends to donate to the charitable foundation. People like Warren Buffet. Aga Khan lobbies Trudope to give taxpayer money.

He wanted the vacations and believed it was better to beg forgiveness (shed a few crocodile tears perhaps) than to ask and be told no. You could almost hear the contempt in him when he said that he would ask permission for ANY vacation going forward essentially implying, how dare you challenge me. Next time my family goes anywhere no matter where it is even if we are paying for it I will make a point of asking permission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
