On Monday evening, hours after Manitoba Chief Justice Glenn D. Joyal got dragged into the mess for no good reason — pending further excavations — she finally hit rock bottom. Joyal is a highly respected jurist who had been shortlisted by a non-partisan committee for appointment to the Supreme Court. But in Copps’ telling he is “homophonic (sic), anti-abortion (and) anti-Charter” — and former justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould, for some crazy reason, wanted to make him Chief Justice. Trudeau’s refusal to support her recommendation of a homophonic, anti-abortion, anti-Charter Chief Justice. But the Anonymous Sources want us to believe the Chief Justice of Manitoba poses a mortal threat to marriage equality.
