I told you so.........again

What did I say about Julie Payette?  Yep, I was right. (see "I told you so", 22/09/2018).  Finally, her abusive treatment of staff is about to be investigated -- although what that will reveal will probably be so watered down as to be useless.  At the moment, the Privy Council Office is working on "terms of reference" for the review -- double speak for redacting the entire mess.

She needs to be removed, but won't be because Trudeau is a "feminist".  The Grim Groper, as I call him, will never remove a woman he has appointed -- and that includes the hapless and inept Brenda Lucki, the bungling and incapable Catherine Tait and the incompetent Theresa Tam, the latter of whom has blood on her hands for having sat on them too long while Canadians were dying.

Marie Antoinette, a.k.a. the current Governor General, is a disaster and a disgrace to both the office and her gender.  Anyone remember the likes of Vincent Massey, Gen. Georges Vanier or Jules Leger?  Now, there were two GGs with enormous dignity, deserving of the role as representative of Her Majesty in Canada.  With the appointment of Jeanne Sauve, it's all been downhill from there.  We had the ultimate snob, Adrienne Clarkson and then Michaelle Jean -- both vacuous "celebrity" appointments.  Harper tried to reverse that trend when he appointed the well-respected David Johnston, but Trudeau -- true to his "feminist" zeal -- got us back on the wrong track with Payette. 

I'd like to think the chickens will come home to roost.  But they won't.  The Globe and Mail skewered Payette today with a perfect cartoon:
