Four years ago I announced an Afghanistan War monument to honour the service & sacrifice of Canadians in the longest mission in @CanadianForces history. The Liberals cancelled it shortly after the election. 1/3 ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new…
When confronted on the cancellation the Liberals promised a new Afghanistan monument. Liberal MP & Veteran @karenmccrimmon promised to move “as quickly as possible” to get it done. 2/3
After years of promises, this week the government quietly opened an Afghanistan memorial. Veterans were not invited. It is closed to the public. Families of the fallen have to make an appointment to see it. This is absolutely shameful. 3/3 ottawacitizen.com/news/national/…

Many Canadians have only recently become familiar with the Admiral Norman affair, so here is a recap of the case and political interference from the Trudeau government that I describe as Direction, Deception & Delay. 1/6
Direction - the breach of trust charge stemmed from a cabinet leak related to attempts to halt a $700M contract. 73 people were aware of the leak but for over a year only Admiral Norman lost his job & had his name given to the RCMP for investigation. 2/6 ottawacitizen.com/news/national/…
Deception - the pre-trial work of Norman’s defence team suggested that Code Words were used by the Trudeau government possibly to avoid disclosure of documents related to Admiral Norman. 3/6 theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

A (somewhat) brief history of Team Trudeau and two major legal matters. 1/23
Oct 2015 - Justin Trudeau elected Prime Minister and hires key Ontario Liberal Party advisors Gerry Butts & Katie Telford for top positions in his PMO. 2/23 nationalpost.com/news/politics/…
Fall 2015 - Many key political aides from the McGuinty/Wynne era come to Ottawa to take senior roles in PMO & across Trudeau govt. This includes “Justin Trudeau’s fixer” Zita Astravas. 3/23 cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Four years ago today, @BernieSanders announced that he'd seek the Democratic presidential nomination in the 2016 election: sevendaysvt.com/OffMessage/arc…
@BernieSanders Which also means that, as of today, it's now been four years since @BernieSanders granted an interview to @sevendaysvt, the largest newspaper in his home state.

Maybe this is normal elsewhere, but not in Vermont.

Every governor I've covered — from Jim Douglas to @GovPeterShumlin to @GovPhilScott — has held weekly press conferences.

Our other members of Congress, @SenatorLeahy & @PeterWelch, agree to most interview requests.

Four years ago today the #insidebitcoinsnyc conference was the final hook & sinker that dragged me deep down the rabbit hole.
“many long time attendees remarked on the number of “suits” in the room. Compared to other conferences hosted in the Javits Center, the crowd was eclectic and the conference small, but it was clear that financial institutions were kicking the tires.” ark-invest.com/research/block…
What I thought of then as the technology hitting “an inflection point in the financial services industry,” was really just an early wave of interest in the *ideas* from financial institutions.

Four years ago today at this time I walked out of court.

I had been released on bail after being arrested for being suicidal. I was charged with breach of the peace and wasting police time, even though there was no one else in danger and no disruption to the public.
I had been so unwell in the court cells that the duty solicitor thought I wasn’t fit to plead, but it was ‘too late on’ to do anything about it. One of my bail conditions was that I ‘engage with social work’ before leaving court, but the social work office had closed for the day.
I didn’t have a social worker, and didn’t have any support or help from them or from mental health services throughout the duration of the prosecution (7 months). I was later told that in court the sheriff said they were minded to remand me as I seemed so at risk and had no help.
