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.

Powell believed what he was saying, based on what? Intelligence provided to him #Cdnpoli #CdnNatSec ImageImageImageImage
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 Image
We are to accept as fact documents shown to handpicked reporters. From an unknown source getting labeled a “whistleblower”, when that is not what this is. A leaker is not a whistleblower. They do not receive whistleblower protections. #cdnpoli #CdnNatSec ImageImageImage

If you need a refresher on the Conservative's track record with election interference and/or china, then let's go.

1) Pierre Poilievre is "Pierre Poutine". He was the robocall guy.

This was voter supression, brought to you by the Conservatives.

The #CPC response to the robocall scandal was not a public inquiry. Strange, since they seem to be all about that now. One must also note that Poilievre's party wanted only the '19 & '21 elections investigated only. Not going back to '11, when they were caught red handed.

The Harper government responded with Poilievre’s oxymoronically named “Fair Elections Act”: Legislation that sought to muzzle the chief electoral officer & make it more difficult for neutral officials to uncover acts of electoral interference.

Poilievre's legislation.

Pierre Poilievre took tens of thousands of dollars from China to travel to Taiwan with his girlfriend.

Erin O'Toole hired the former Huawei CEO to run his election campaign.
2) CPC Senators Victor Oh, Don Plett and Leo Housakos recieved ethics violations and condemnation for secretly and covertly taking undeclared exotic vacations from China.

Chinese businessman Yi Wei Cheng gave thousands of dollars to Ontario CPC constituency offices
3) Chinese developer Ted Zhou formed 10 non-profit organizations to help cpc candidates.

Pierre Poilievre declared that as minister responsible for securing our elections said he didn't do anything because China wasn't helping him.
