Canada: Trudeau government investigated six agencies to find leaker of $10.5 million payout to jihad terrorist

Apr 8, 2019 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

If this payment to jihad terrorist Omar Khadr had had any reasonable justification, it wouldn’t have been done in secret, and the Trudeau government would not have made such extensive efforts to find and punish the leaker. But why was it done in the first place? The stated reason is that Khadr was mistreated in Guantanamo, and the payout was compensation for that. But then why the secrecy and furious hunt for the leaker? Establishment media “journalists” are certain to show no curiosity about that question.

“Federal government hunted for person who leaked Omar Khadr’s $10.5M settlement payment: internal report,” by Brian Platt, National Post, April 3, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

OTTAWA — An internal report obtained by the National Post reveals details of how the federal government launched an investigation spanning six departments and agencies to hunt for who leaked information about a reported $10.5-million settlement with Omar Khadr in July 2017.

But the Privy Council Office is refusing to say whether it ever referred the probe to the RCMP, as it did with the leak investigation into Vice-Admiral Mark Norman.

The internal report, obtained through an access-to-information request, also shows that payment of the out-of-court settlement to Khadr was delayed by a day after public servants made a coding error that caused the transfer to be rejected by the Bank of Canada, through which the payment flowed to a bank account held by an unnamed third party. Public servants scrambled to fix the error and spent the next day monitoring the payment step-by-step until it properly transferred through the banks.

News of the settlement was reported on the evening of July 3, 2017, by The Globe and Mail, which identified its source only as a “federal insider.” As of September 2017 — two months after the news story — the Privy Council Office was still searching for who leaked to the media, the report says.

The Post asked the Privy Council Office if the internal investigation ever uncovered the source of the leak, if the matter was ever referred to the RCMP, and if anyone was ever disciplined or terminated over the leak. Stephane Shank, manager of media relations for the Privy Council Office, sent a statement that did not answer any of the questions.

“Any disclosure of confidential information is a breach of the Public Service’s Values and Ethics Code,” it said. “As Public Servants, we swear an oath to serve and are entrusted to protect information of a confidential nature. This disclosure, while a breach, did not constitute a risk to the Canadian public. We do not comment on personnel matters.”…

    This could be just as big if not bigger then the SNC scandal the reason if the feds had paid him then victims could come forward and have a legit case to get some of the cash or even freeze the payment.

    However giving the cash to a 3rd party and having them pay him victims can’t claim it or have the money frozen this is also not a 100% legal move by the feds.

      So when does the investigation begin into who ordered cash payments?

    Any such pay out should have been public knowledge from the beginning. The Trudeau Liberals are at the centre of all these scandals because the Trudeau Liberals are corrupt and that’s the only way they know to conduct themselves.

      The Liberal party in Canada has been corrupt for decades and it is this corruption, just as with this current Trudeau Liberal government, that brings them down each and every time.

      Canadians need to recognize this fact and decimate the Liberals in this up coming election in October.

        Unfortunately the media, Liberal Party, NDP Party and Conservative Party of Canada still refues to talk about Tom Quiggin’s reports and book! Justin Trudeau and five of his Members of Parliament have been exposed for using Taxpayers money to fund the Terrorist Groups the Muslim Brotherhood! This is punishable up to ten years in jail according to the Criminal Code of Canada! No need to wait till the Octobe Election!

          But they have not tagged them as terrorist. Neither have we in the US. Its a problem that it has to be passed by our Congress. I asked my Reps to vote for the proclamation the last times it came up, but they responded with a NO.

      If things get hot, the Liberals can always appoint Khadr embassador to Denmark. (for those in the know)

    This, IMHO, was one of the BIGGEST INSIDIOUS BETRAYALS even perpetrated by a leader on his own trusting people who voted him to office in good faith. In fact, he did an Obama. And this betrayal by the Turd will have enormous sting back for a long long time to come for the hapless Canadian people, one of the most decent peoples of this world. They have been had… snake bitten….very tragic betrayal indeed..

    As an Indian, I have seen some really lowly betrayals by my own leaders… but this betrayal by the Turd even outdid that..

    And now instead of saying sorry for this lowly act, the TURD wants to find out as to who betrayed him?? This shows that he is not a good man at heart..

      I wonder if Trudeau could be a “hysteric”?
      Apostate Prophet has a video wherein he describes how Carl Jung stated Hitler was a diagnosed “hysteric” – the type who is a compulsive liar and believes and genuinely trusts their own imagined utopian visions and thus easily enables others to jump on the bandwagon as well. It seems Jung felt there was a great likeness between Hitler and Mohammed:

      Why Did Carl Jung Compare Hitler To Muhammad?

    OMAR SQUIRRELED HIS MONEY INTO A SHOPPING MALL UNDER A NUMBERED COMPANY …

    EXCLUSIVE: Rebel uncovers where terrorist Omar Khadr hid $3M of his ill-gotten payout
    by Sheila Gunn Reid

    https://www.therebel.media/exclusive-rebel-uncovers-where-khadr-hid-3m-of-his-ill-gotten-payout

    Omar Khadr, the Canadian-born son of al-Qaeda royalty who killed US Army medic Christopher Speer and maimed soldier Layne Morris while fighting for enemy forces in Afghanistan, was never repentant.

    Khadr and his lawyers have, so far, sheltered that money from seizure. It was safely hidden away, until now.

    Approximately one month ago, we received a tip about a real estate deal where Khadr’s name popped up in the form of a blurry screenshot — enough to get the ball rolling. We had lawyers pull land titles and corporate registries and are now able to confirm that Khadr, or rather a numbered Alberta company where he is one of only two directors, owns an aging strip mall with a partner in North Central Edmonton.

    The building itself houses a tire shop, a daycare, a travel agency, a commercial painting business, and a seasonal garden centre. The purchase price was $3M cash. No mortgage.

    Watch to see all the documents I used to confirm that original tip and to see the proximity of this terrorist owned shopping mall to a large elementary school.

    Our leader dearest peewee, the greatest feminist the world has carried, the multiculturalist supreme, islamophile extraordinaire (brags about having visited all the canadian mosques, waving at the sisters segregated upstairs) also approved payments totaling 31.3 million dollars to these three men, Abdullah Almalki, Ahmad El-Maati et Muayyed Nureddin in 2017. Supposedly to compensate these men who were mistreated while arrested in Syria……..……

    Why Canada paid these sums remains a mystery, because of non disclosure agreements.

    So Omar is just one of many who won the loto of stupid canadian generosity, only in the land of ”sunny ways”.

    Canada could become the first non muslim country in the world to allow polygamy that is the fear right now and this will be a huge issue for the feds.

    Canada has a child benefit program its $5400 per kid with no max so a muslim family has 8 kids that’s $43,000 tax free plus they still can get other social programs.

    • Michael Garant says

      Apr 8, 2019 at 4:30 pm

      It is already tolerated for the best of communities…..has been for years. A CBC investigation reveals that mosques conduct these mariages but do not declare them as not to violate openly canadian laws…..there is even a web site to find spouses for muslims: secondwife.com

      The second and third or more wifes probabIy live as monoparental mothers with the benefits you describe….thus no burden on the father but an additional income that all of us contribute to . Taht is the role of the dhimmi is it not? I also suspect that given the number of muslims in the country, the authorities dare not address this problem out of fear of what would happen. This does not keep them from punishing mormons…. ;0)

      • Jayme says

        Apr 8, 2019 at 4:36 pm

        When its tolerated they can’t access social programs however when its legal they can that is what people are worried about.

        • Michael Garant says

          Apr 8, 2019 at 4:59 pm

          If it is not known to social services that they are anything else than single women with children they can easily fool the system and get social aid.

    The $3 million should have been paid to the families of Christopher Speer & Layne Morris!!!

    • ninetyninepct says

      Apr 9, 2019 at 12:05 pm

      $10,500,000 Barbara, not $3 million, and it was Trudeau’s decision assisted by Morneau. No court decision regarding amount was ever made by the Courts.

    Wonder how much of that 10+ million settlement made its way to muslim terror organizations.

    Why is the Canadian government, AKA the people, paying compensation to a terrorist who was held at GITMO by the US government?

    ………………

    So Trudeau just wanted to keep it his little secret? *Ugh*.

    I hope the whistle-blower is safe.

    Apr 9, 2019 at 12:20 am

    Are there not laws protecting whistle blowers, so in fact once again the liberals would have broken the law by looking for them I believe. Shame the RCMP won’t step up and do their job instead of being content being border bell hops.

    I feel for most of the people of Canada who, like in the U.S. are not in line with their Government, the Elites, Trudeau’s cabal together w/the U.N. and the E.U. are all working together to destroy Freedom. Apparently they either are clueless of Islam and their intentions, are turning a blind eye, or are overwhelmed with these terrorists…

    Khadr the ISIS terrorist was originally demanding $100,000 as a settlement for getting wet and losing a bit of sleep. Trudeau decided that he would sneak Khadr the $10,500,000 and bypass the Canadian Court System, probably because there was a chance Khadr would get charged with treason.

    The Legal and Court systems in Canada are clearly an obstruction to Liberal corruption and Liberals try to bypass it. What else is Trudeau hiding?

    • Barbara says

      Apr 9, 2019 at 9:31 pm

      Clearly he does not believe in judicial independence. He likes to be Prime Minister, judge and jury all in one. Remind you of pre -magna carte days?

  16. UNCLE VLADDI says

    Apr 9, 2019 at 6:47 pm

    Turdeau is now claiming in public the deal “took him by surprise” yet there was no legal need nor justification for it – not even Omar Khadr himself nor his lawyers had asked for it, and only Turdeau himself could have granted it. Beyond which, Turdeau Paid FOUR Terrorists Over $10M Each – Not Only Omar Khadr!
