All parties appoint partisan judges. If you think your party of choice doesn't then you need to give your head a shake.

From the shared link:

"The Trudeau government has stopped using the Liberal Party's private database to conduct background checks on candidates for judicial appointments, federal sources say."

This is a specific claim about the Liberals that is not refuted by suppositions about other parties, even if the supposition is likely true.

I'm not attempting to refute it. I'm suggesting that the idea that only the Liberals appoint partisan judges is absurd, because they're all corrupt.
I wonder why the government decided to stop using their private party database to vet judges then? If it’s all kosher and above board why did they stop?
