Elected Dictator

How would we feel if a foreign leader attacked our PM and commented on the merits of a crucial constitutional legal case that had nothing to do with that foreign country? (say that country was the UK, the US or Australia) We would be pissed.

But, our PM (aka: Old Blackface) felt that he of the Budget Omnibus Bill, the Norman Case and MP for SNC-Lavalin had the nerve to pronounce on the "lawfulness" of the UK PM in his exercise of a right and power that he and his predecessors  here and in the whole Commonwealth (except Sri Lanka) have used unchecked for hundreds of years. 

Like a jackal, he pounced on his prey, one of our closest allies, again, at an international gathering. It's hardly a week since Blackface erupted and he is brazenly displaying his hypocrisy again. It is like he doesn't  even realize how hypocritical he is. He never loses an opportunity to be a hypocrite.

I would like to claim my patent against Lord Pannick and the UKSC on the phrase "elected dictator". I have been alerting people to this phenomenon as regards our PM. Although, a  similar concept was bruited by counsel for Nixon in the US v Nixon case when he unsuccessfully argued that the POTUS effectively has the powers of Louis XIV once elected. And good thing that he failed. I have recommended a number of ways to make our Parliament in particular truly independent of the Executive, including taking the Cabinet out of the legislature American and French Republican style and electing the Governor-General and above all, making strict party discipline illegal amongst other things.

But, the UK Parliament and the UKSC and the antics of the US Congress have made me realize that undemocratic forces can come from the other branches too. However, it does not take away from the fact that, if there is an "elected dictator" effectively existing in any of the great democracies, it is the Canadian PM. What is more, unlike the other Chief Executives (including of course the least secure of them all, the Australian PM), this one truly fits the bill for "elected dictator" pejoratively as well as technically and in form. He has eviscerated the Rule of Law, whipped his MPs into subverting the proceedings of Parliament and its committees to shelter his government from scrutiny in the midst of a coverup of likely criminal conduct whilst using cabinet confidentiality to frustrate an RCMP investigation and that of the Ethics Commissioner. All of this in aid of covering up his use of his office to try to obstruct justice and intimidate prosecutors and the Justice Minister and destroy their independence to protect a corrupt company that gave his party illegal campaign donations.

In other words, UKSC and Lord Pannick, if you want to see what a real elected dictator PM looks like in action, come to Canada and study the genuine article who dared to pronounce about how thrilled he was that his constitutional brother was haltered by you.

BTW - why hasn't ANYONE thought of bringing an application to the SCC  to judicially review the PM's actions and his use of Cabinet confidentiality in SNC? The Tories propose that, if the RCMP is stopped from completing an investigation into the government by the use of cabinet secrecy, it should be able to apply to the SCC to get access. Why can't it do that now? The UKSC prorogation case was filed by non-MP's as the Plaintiffs. The UKSC is far less powerful proportionally than the SCC. Why couldn't anyone do this then? But, more importantly why didn't the Opposition take the Liberals and Trudeau to court the moment that they stymied the Parliament's ability to investigate SNC? While I'm at it, why can't I do it? If anyone's reading this, I invite you to tell me why I or you for that matter would not have the standing to take the HMG and Trudeau to court over this and, if you agree with me that I can, help me set up a class action to do it!

(BTW 2 - If the Court and the Trudeau government's new laws say that pretty well anyone with a pulse can put in their five cents about pipelines in court,grf then why can't John Q. Public have a say in how his government and parliament are being used by the PM?)
