Liberal members of #JUST have adjourned the committee after 25 minutes of debate - punting a motion from @PierrePoilievre to call JWR. The committee will meet again on Feb. 19 to discuss next steps and to finalize the witness list #cdnpoli
@PierrePoilievre After @Francis_Drouin's motion to adjourn, @PierrePoilievre and @Cooper4SAE shouted "Cover up!" and told the Liberals, "You should be shamed of yourselves."
I should note, the Liberal members of #JUST already voted against an opposition motion to call JWR back to the committee last week. This meeting was only held because four opposition members requested an "emergency" meeting to discuss the matter.
Also, with added caveat that most of the committee meetings I cover are #SenCA, I have never seen committee business (like a witness list) discussed in public. Always in-camera from what I can recall. So, that bit is not unusual.

Good evening from Laval, Que.! We're 15 minutes away from the CPC French-language debate.

All six candidates will be on stage. Three of them can't speak the language.

The seating capacity for this room is about 1,000 — still some empty chairs as people trickle in from the bar.
The seats are all full and it's standing-room only at this Laval banquet hall.

Valerie Assouline, the vice-president of the party, tell us that this is the first time the French-language debate has been held in the Montreal area.
Assouline also announced the election results will be unveiled in Ottawa on Sept. 10. (We knew the date but now we know the city and the venue — it's the Shaw Centre.)

Just off the phone with a Conservative caucus member who's hopping mad about Denise Batters getting the boot.
"For Erin, this is the beginning of the end," this Conservative told me. "It's a position of weakness. A real leader would say, 'Let's have a vote,' and trigger a caucus vote to see just how much support he really has."
This person says the more O'Toole tries to "suppress" dissent, the bigger anti-O'Toole movement will be — comparing O'Toole to Wojciech Jaruzelski, Soviet puppet leader in 1980s Poland who imposed martial law to silence opposition only to be toppled by invigorated anticommunists.

Just off the phone with a Conservative caucus member who spoke very frankly about Monday's election.

They're not happy with O'Toole. Biggest issue? Campaigning as a "true blue" in the leadership and then abandoning many promises in the general. Carbon tax. Guns. Fiscal prudence.
"He campaigned as a Liberal. He wasn't even Liberal lite — he campaigned as a Liberal in this campaign with no input from caucus or the party or anybody else," the caucus member said.
The caucus member also said they and others were caught off guard by what was actually in the party's platform.

"I didn't even know what we were running on until I saw him on TV," the Tory said of O'Toole's platform launch on day two of the campaign.
