Two female NDP MPs who allege improper conduct by a duo of male Liberal MPs will not be formally laying a complaint to launch an investigation, says a senior New Democrat.Hey Justin... just ask yourself, "What would the PRC Politburo do?"
The decision could leave Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau with a political dilemma: Without an investigation, does he allow his two MPs back into caucus after suspending their membership because of the allegations?
Oh, that's right... you already did.
OTTAWA - The House of Commons committee that was to create a sexual harassment policy to govern MPs has decided it doesn't have the mandate for it.Unclear... apart from Justin having pronounced judgement and tossed them out of caucus, that is.
Following question period, a clearly agitated Trudeau told reporters that he was unable to take any action before hearing back from Scheer.
That leaves little chance of an investigation, and the fates of Andrews and Pacetti still unclear.

Both Harper and Putin were in Australia over the weekend for the G20 Summit. Our guy laid quite the smackdown to Vlad, one he’s not used to getting.Note that Mr Putin, legendary for staying up all night and schmoozing, left the function early that night.
The prime minister’s spokesman Jason MacDonald confirmed Harper told the Russian leader: "I guess I’ll shake your hand but I have only one thing to say to you: you need to get out of Ukraine."
Unequivocal. Clear. Direct. That’s how it’s done.
