I don't know who the interpreter is during today's #QP, but wow - am I impressed. That most recent exchange was spoken in French and very quickly by the MP asking the question. At least PM Trudeau slowed down when he answered
(sorry, I missed who was asking the question. Bet it was someone from the Bloc, but can't confirm - was simply listening, not watching & missed hearing the intro of the person speaking)
not sure if tagging the Speaker will mean this gets passed along, but no harm in trying: @AnthonyRota
- while I'm always impressed with the excellent work the interpreters do during QP, today's is exceptional (woman's voice - was interpreting just before 1 pm Mtn time)
if it helps - the subject was about vaccines and the opposition (Bloc?) member mentioned India

AB's Health Minister Shandro is being asked by reporters about phase two vaccination plan. Second question on it (Shandro didn't answer first one) - the reporter says "since you didn't answer, I'll ask the same question"
...
2/
... and Shandro says "I'll be happy to answer that question a second time" ... thanks, Ken for letting me answer that again"

(touchy. Me thinks he might be protesting too much)

and yet another reporter asks about vaccination rollout plans. Shandro answers "we have developed recommendations through the cabinet committee and that's all I'm going to say on that today"

That's a non-answer in my opinion

anyone-else feel the same way that I do, re COVAX story? There is SO much misinfo. Disappointing to see that misinfo is by Cda's opposition leaders: fed NDP, GPC & CPC. This feels like they're taking advantage of our emotions, & Cdns are deliberately being manipulated ...

and it looks similar to what the U.S. GOP do in the States - in order to deliberately confuse and divide

I'm following a presser by Bill Blair, Minister of Public Safety (#CdnPoli) - @CBCNews has done a terrific job of listing the salient points in their sidebar(s). I made screenshots, but will type the points out into this tweet-thread, for those who use type-to-voice apps ...

The CPC, and their enabling press & surrogates, wish us to believe they haven't behaved like Trump's GOP. That they haven't copies Trump tactics, to try to get it to work in Canada as well.
