Tories go after Grits over fundraising

Federal Conservatives will use an opposition day today to push for more power for the ethics commissioner.

They want Mary Dawson to have the ability to enforce one of Prime Minister Trudeau’s own directives. Cabinet ministers are supposed to avoid even the appearance of giving preferential access to individuals who donate to the Liberals. Dawson has said so-called cash-for-access fundraisers are not very savoury, but she can’t satop them.

Man charged in BC school stabbing

A homeless man has been charged with second degree murder after two girls were stabbed at a high school in Burnaby BC. One died. The other is in hospital. Why is still a mystery.

Police say 21 year old Gabriel Klein walked barefoot into the school and stabbed the two girls…but there’s no apparent connection between them and him….so no idea of the motive.
