1/9 #CDNpoli

It's been brought to my attention that a small handful of #NDP propagandists are attempting to discredit my #SNCLavalin - #IndigenousDirective timeline RE Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott, PMJT, etc, to other #CDNmedia journalists
2/9 #CDNpoli

Please let it be known, without a shadow of a doubt

#NDP Leader, Jagmeet Singh, did in fact speak with the CEO of #SNCLavalin about a DPA

So did the NDP's MP for Sherbrooke, Québec, Pierre-Luc Dusseault

And a screencap
3/9 #CDNpoli

It's disappointing the #NDP would add to #SNCLavalinScandal by attempting to mislead #CDNmedia & #Elxn43 voters

If they're interested to learn the facts, here is everyone #SNCLavalin lobbied for a deferred prosecution agreement (aka #DPA)

Perhaps the #NDP can explain why it's trying to discredit a #CDNmedia journo by supplying its own partisan #FakeNews in rebuttal

Do they wish to see JWR's #IndigenousDirective defeated?

Because here's what they're busy denying

5/9 #CDNpoli #SNCLavalin

Worse yet, the person cited in tweet #1 was an #NDP candidate & so was her daughter

The daughter made headlines by making fun of the Holocaust from a sexual perspective during the last elxn

They tried to spin those facts as well

6/9 #SNCLavalin

Needless to say, I kindly advise the #NDP & its candidates to focus on resolving the issues, including #Indigenous issues, instead of trying to spin #CDNpoli facts to sanitize its own record

Charlie Angus says 'nothing to see here' too

7/9 #CDNpoli fails to recognize the #NDP primarily represents unions & unions are in lockstep with mining & oil companies, by organizing that very workforce

They're in a natural conflict of interest to speak about #SNCLavalin &/or #ClimateChange because they work for deniers too
8/9 #CDNpoli

For the record, that #NDP propagandist from tweet #1 is/was part of the Bruce Labour Council that reps Bruce Power

Bruce Power is also owned by a CUPE affiliate & company is proposing a threat to #Indigenous water to bury its nuclear waste

9/9 #CDNpoli

So it makes sense the #NDP would try to skew the #SNCLavalin scandal to be about anything other than JWR's #IndigenousDirective, to hide its own interest in the engineering firm that partners with all these energy + mining companies

But forked tongues are apparent
10/9 #CDNpoli It's a strange, ideological horseshoe effect that puts NDP & Tories on the same side, against Indigenous concerns

They can say what they want & make false promises, but the proof is in the union dues they collect from companies that want control of #Indigenous land
11/9 If It makes anyone feel better, my son abhors that I'm a walking encyclopedia RE #CDNpoli networks/issues & he can't get away with ideological fantasies against the facts either

Bottom line: No party is free of these biz conflicts & thats why they need to be managed #ethics
