Hey #CDNpoli, remember how @Comey got Trump elected with a fake investigation story just before an election?
You should. It's the same thing here...
You should. It's the same thing here...
Remember how Republicans got caught extorting Zelensky to force him to announce a fake investigation into Hunter Biden?
The president got impeached and everything... was big news.
They say it was all Trump, but you know that guy can't run a popsicle stand on his own...

You may have seen the Ontario PCs spamming links to The Hamilton Independent.
So I asked the question, what is this new “news org” and after doing extensive research I have found the following EXPLOSIVE…. 1/

PP calling #CBC “Trudeau Liberal propaganda”, had 2 objectives: to discredit CBC when holding Polievre #CPC to account AND to make CBC second guess any positive stories about Trudeau & #LPC.

By the way, the Jamaican trip was a Xmas vacation. So why is this a “top story” that prominently quotes #NevrePoilievre? @CBCRadioCanada @CBCNews, care to explain?

I'm trying to figure out why @PierrePoilievre refuses to submit to a background security clearance check, which would include his wife @AnaPoilievre. Back in 2020, #Skippy unexpectedly dropped out of the leadership race without any real explanation. 1/5

Since then, great effort has gone into scrubbing @AnaPoilievre past from the internet. Her wiki page has been heavily edited and they don't even know what year she was actually born. I've included a screenshot as they may try and edit this obvious problem. 2/5
There are some legitimated, unanswered questions about @AnaPoilievre and her fathers connection to Venezuelan organised crime and how they may be using @PierrePoilievre to gain access to the highest levels of the Canadian government. 3/5
When the Liberals ran Ontario, we had an economy that could grow services at 4% every single year, without any additional cost to taxpayers.
And we would have paid off our debt while doing it.
Ontario would have had a surplus going into the pandemic.
Instead, we got robbed.

This was published by the @FraserInstitute in 2014.
Fact is, when we had a sustainable economy; #CDNmedia just ran debt scare stories while @fordnation said we were bankrupt.
And within a year of his election he was outspending the Liberals by double.

Since 2018, the @OntarioPCParty has spent every unallocated dollar they could find.
And they cut every service we used to get at less cost before they showed up.
It's fucking theft.
You'd think someone might have said something.
@fordnation was deficit spending at $38.5B.

This "News Outlet" has incited violence against all Canadian institutions, including against police officers.

Let's just look at their narrative.
Citizens are suffering under a malicious liberal presence that seeks to control the nation and impose Marshall Law.
We'll be forced into poverty, rely on government handouts, 'own nothing and be happy'.
"All enforced by corrupt Cops."

The Terrorist Convoy was doxxing Cops before the EA was enacted.
During the EA, the Terrorists said the Cops were all manner of evil. 'Co-opted by liberals, the Police were to be resisted!'

I've been kicked off this platform more times than I can count.
I probably deserved it once, I'll give them one. But, seriously...
No liberal has ever censored a view. Ever. We judge folks for their views, and conservatives take THAT as a personal attack.
Human nature.

The attempts to bring down this federal government have been relentless. Day by day, one op after another. The continuous feeding of bad faith reporting & propaganda in #cdnmedia. All with the aim of installing the #CPC. A manifestly unfit party & leader who courts RW extremists
The efforts to topple this gov’t, of course, includes FI. Threat activity (esp online) from 🇷🇺🇨🇳, in addition to the 🇺🇸 RW operations of billionaire-backed networks like the Koch Network & others. But also Saudi & Iranian operations, have all played a part. #cdnpoli #CdnNatSec
Back in 2021 #elxn44, CSE & CSIS warned of the strategy of threat actors to discredit fairness of democratic elections themselves. @selectedwisdom summed up the ultimate objective of discrediting free & fair elections - to breed apathy & stop participation in democracy #CdnNatSec
So of course #NationalPost publishes an article by a white Conservative who absolutely mischaracterizes what people are saying. NO ONE is saying not to investigate lest it inflame anti-Asian hate. We are saying this op exploits anti-Asian hate. #CdnMediaFailed #cdnpoli
As for “cozying up to Beijing”, no one has done that more than #Conservatives. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #CdnMediaFailed
20 years ago, Colin Powell addressed the UN Security Council to make a case for war. Serving as the frontman for Bush’s admin, to convince the world of the dangers of Iraq & WMDs.

That faulty intelligence had been assessed, & yet, it was a lie that had catastrophic effects on the world. Cost over $1.2 T 💵. A million lives lost.
Today in 🇨🇦 we have a far less catastrophic, yet still important, peddling of intelligence - of unknown confidence. #CdnNatSec

Retweeting True North tells you how Poilievre will govern Canada: claims he will sue Big Pharma are a distraction from CPC incompetance in 2012 when his Gov ignored medical experts who warned that allowing the drug across our border would produce an opioid crisis. #cdnpoli

The man stoking treasonous suspicions based on unfounded allegations is @PierrePoilievre & #cdnmedia is giving him a platform to do so without debunking his lies #cdnpoli

this is an example of Mr Cooper's sources at Global. He doesn't even get that he's totally blown himself up by trusting that source.
Cooper's comment reminds me of the one he had with Mr Butts when he dismissed his recommendation to review Stephanie Carvin's cautions about his sources & the leak. Carvin is a security expert.
So yesterday I was fed a story in my news app that enraged me. #Cdnmedia is in a crisis. The rank inability to employ logical reasoning, the pushing of a narrative for political ends, is not reporting. It is propaganda & it misinforms the public, not the opposite. #cdnpoli
It was more shockingly poor reporting on Chinese interference, implying a connection where no factual evidence is provided. Merely a faulty attempt to draw conclusions without substantiating anything. Just garbage reporting. #CdnmediFailed #cdnpoli
The article even admits it has no evidence, merely wild speculation implying that the drop in #Conservative votes is due to a vague implication of Chinese interference. Chiu lost & because he lives in a RW bubble, imagines that it must be “interference”…#CdnMediaFailed #cdnpoli
Everything Polievre does is bad faith. He is the most unfit opposition leader in Canadian history, Even more than the other astoundingly unfit choices like Scheer. He represents the dangerous & malicious degradation of the political right & its threat to democracy. #cdnpoli
@CTVNews’ promotion of #NevrePoilievre was on full display last night immediately following the Oscars, where PP was featured off the top implying Trudeau is responsible for airport delays 🤦♀️. The framing of political hit job stories in #cdnmedia isn’t news & it’s concerning.
A couple of things about this absolutely toxic tweet. What ‘law breaking’? None. #NevrePoilievre has manufactured “broken laws” & “treason”. This is such reckless toxic rhetoric. It is fascistic. Notice his constant nonstop data mining off his lies as well. #WomenAgainstPoilievre
A reality we all need to wake up to. We’re living in an information war that’s only going to accelerate. 🇨🇳,🇷🇺 & the political right, along with other malign actors, are waging this war. 🇨🇦 has a naive, gullible &/or complicit #cdnmedia that far too often, falls for #InfoOps.

1. Pulling together my recent🧵s on this latest #Cdnmedia China saga that has much broader implications re #CdnNatSec, political operatives, breaking the law to leak to journalists with political motives.
Remember who #RobertFife is.
Remember who #RobertFife is.
Fife implied China had the ability to choose 🇨🇦’s government right down to whether majority or minority. Utterly reckless nonsense. Of course, Fife offered not one single shred of factual evidence. #Cdnpoli #CdnMediaFailed
3. The reporting on this story is off & there is so much that is suspect. Resurfacing allegations that are not new. Why? Why now? By whom?#POECreport #FluTruxKlan #ChristineAnderson #Cdnpoli #cdnmedia
I very much agree with this important point from Stephanie Carvin. Something is off here. Also, what’s behind resurfacing a nearly 3.5 year old allegation? This doesn’t pass the smell test for me. #cdnpoli #CdnNatSec #cdnmedia @csiscanada
Dong defeated current #CPC comms director, Sarah Fisher, in the 2019 election in question. You may know Fischer from her vocal support of the #FluTruxKlan destabilization operation that cost 🇨🇦 billions & provided a-bombs of disinformation to the political right, including 🇷🇺&🇨🇳.
Another thing, as @dadinthe6 pointed out. This alleged “help” by PRC, came 8 months after 🇨🇳 vowed retaliation against 🇨🇦’s Liberal gov’t for the detention of Meng Wenzhou? cbc.ca/news/meng-wanz…
The Trump admin requested the detention of MZ, 🇨🇦’s then AG, JWR, complied #cdnpoli

More on Christine Anderson. Why is this German neo-Nazi on a money making tour of 🇨🇦 & why are children being used in her malignant grift operation? #cdnpoli #CdnNatSec #cdnmedia #DemocracyUnderThreat
Children were also used/abused in the #FluTruxKlan op. The use of children in the schemes is repugnant. #cdnpoli
One of the sponsors of Christine Anderson’s Christo-fascist grift tour, has set up a GiveSendGo to pay for their sponsorship?? It hasn’t made any money, so where’s the money coming from? Hotels, dinners, venue fees, flights. Have enough people been buying the $200 - $325 tickets?
Claiming China had the ability to chose 🇨🇦’s gov’t right down to whether minority or majority, it utter nonsense. How was this done, exactly? Someone @csiscanada showed #RobertFife “top secret”materials? Is that legal? How did Fife obtain clearance to view such material? #cdnpoli
We all witnessed a tsunami of disinformation & info ops AGAINST the Liberals in the last 2 elections. We saw attacks & manufactured “scandals”. I monitored multiple media sites & don’t recall disinformation about the #CPC in the almost entirely #Conservative owned #cdnmedia.
This recent skewed piece by #RobertFife has a political agenda. China absolutely interferes, as does Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Israel, UAE & of course, the networks of US billionaires (ie Koch Network). But to suggest 🇨🇳 was able to choose our gov’t is suspicious as hell….
Recap for those not following the story: #DougFord had electronic flyers sent out to lobbying groups, developers, groups with dealings w/ Ontario’s gov’t, “browbeating” them into buying $150 raffle tickets for his daughter’s stag & doe party. IN ADDITION to $1K/person “donations”
If this story doesn’t expose the grotesque #cdnmedia double standard of coverage of #Conservatives, I don’t know what does.

How does a bill passed in 2019 cause crime to increase between 2015 & 2019?
Note how crime rates are skewed by 2 Conservative prairie Provs & Territories?
MPs should tell Conservative Premiers to clean up their own back yards instead of ignorantly blaming PM Trudeau!

The dishonesty & fear-mongering of @PierrePoilievre & other Conservatives needs to stop & #cdnmedia need to stop platforming their histrionics. It's a blatant attempt to grab power at the expense of truth & is why the polls are changing, in addition to the LIBs' lousy comms team.
The emotional & intellectual immaturity of a man who speaks to people who deny science, residential schools, & are racists & homophobic says to me that he really doesn't want to be Prime Minister.
