I’m going to add to this @TurnbullWhitby tweet. #BlockedByRempel is beyond hypocritical. She exemplifies toxic politicking. #MichelleRempel pleaded with officials in Oklahoma to implement lockdowns to ‘keep her family safe’. Now she performatively demands removing lockdowns in 🇨🇦
#BlockedByRempel is so profoundly narcissistic that she can’t even recognize the hypocrisy within her own Twitter thread. She said “we’re all in this together” after slamming “coastal regions” & pretending that Calgary is some flyover backwater ignored by “elites” 🙄. #cdnpoli
Something else that must be noted about #MichelleRempel’s ridiculous comment pretending Calgary Nose Hill is “overlooked by elites”. Know what the median household income is in #CalgaryNoseHill? $101,329/year. MEDIAN. #ABpoli#cdnpoli
This brings me to a more serious form of divisive toxic propaganda that @MichelleRempel engages in. #BlockedByRempel has been pushing something called “The Buffalo Declaration”. What is it? It’s a corrupt RW provincial gov’t & oil lobbyist’s wet dream. #ABleg#ABpoli#cdnpoli
By comparison, in “elite” Toronto’s west end riding of York South Weston (Ahmed Hussen’s riding), the median household income is almost half of that of #CalgaryNoseHill. #abpoli#cdnpoli

Lawrence Greenspon is an INCREDIBLY expensive lawyer. Who’s paying Tamara “black ops” Lich’s legal bills? Last time it was fake charity front operation #JCCF (now switched to “nonprofit”). Now funding appears to be through another “charity” front operation “The Democracy Fund”.
“TDF” claims it started in 2021, but according to CRA, it began in 2019. “The Democracy Fund” also suddenly went from no revenue in 2020 to nearly $5.2 MILLION in 2021. Likely using the pandemic in info-ops laundering. #FrontOperations #BlackOps #cdnpoli #FluTruxKlan
There’s a lot that is suspicious about this, yet another, fake charity front operation that bankrolls the legal bills for anti-vaxxers, covid deniers, anti-maskers & far right seditious extremists. #cdnpoli #FluTruxKlan charitydata.ca/charity/the-de…
1. I’m starting a series of threads on #Project2025. It’s more than just a blueprint for destroying democracy & installing fascism. It’s a blueprint for the wholesale ravaging of the environment to benefit billionaires. Specifically, extraction industry billionaires.
The partners in #Project2025, are billionaire-backed right wing extremist front operations disguising themselves as “pro family values”, “freedom”, “choice in education” “traditional values”. When in fact, it’s about autocracy & dismantling public protections. #DemocracyInDanger
3. In this series, we’ll look at some of the partners in #Project2025. The deception & con-jobs designed to hoodwink the public. Let’s take a look at “Native Americans for Sovereignty & Preservation. This group hijacks causes & imitates topics important to Indigenous communities.
Running 74 fake spoiler candidates who don’t live, support, or even campaign, in the communities they target, is so clearly a dirty trick & an abuse of rules & norms, benefiting #Conservatives. The organizers claim to be independent, but the ridings they target tell another story
#ElectoralReform is an exploited talking point aimed mostly at the left to hive off Liberal support - always to benefit #Conservatives. It was debated & quickly got messy. It’s been used as “broken promise” propaganda ever since.
Yes, this 👇
The dirty tricks by the “extreme ballot committee” or the “longest ballot f*ckery committee” or whatever, is, and has been, spun across propaganda media. It perpetuates misinformation and propaganda. #TorontoStPaul #cdnpoli
On #NeverPoilievre’s website, on the first page, is a link to propaganda from a known Kremlin mouth piece & white nationalist, Cosmin Dzsurdzsa. Even RW propaganda site #PostMillennial fired Dzsurdzsa. Once again, PP dog whistles to far right extremists & 🇷🇺. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia
Who then hired this far right Kremlin mouth piece? #TrueNorthCentre, a pro Poilievre registered “charity” front operation, spreading disinformation disguised as “news”. #CdnDisinfo #cdnmedia #CdnMediaCrisis #cdnpoli #NeverVoteConservative
#TrueNorthCentre played a pivotal role in ousting Erin O’Toole, pushing PP, & spreading #FluTruxKlan destabilization op propaganda as well as promoting Kremlin talking points & pro Kremlin political figures like #ChristineAnderson. #cdnpoli #NeverPoilievre
On this New Year’s Day 2024, let’s look back on 2023, a year in review of some of the more notable propaganda campaigns that misled the public, using both legacy/corporate media & social media. 🧵
#NewYear2024 #AYearInReview #cdnmedia #cdnpoli #Goodbye2023 #CdnDisinfo
Let’s start with recent history. The appalling partisanship & lack of critical thinking, in addition to a willingness to comply, with the foreign ops of authoritarians like Modi, laid bare (again) our #CdnMediaCrisis. Then silence when more evidence came to light. #cdnpoli
Of course, one of the biggest ops of 2023 was the Chinese interference story. Picking off off LPC MPs in key ridings, appeared to be an aim, using unassessed unknown confidence intel, leaked by partisans. #cdnmedia played such a starring role, @MarkBourrie called it #CoupByMedia
The political right is an anti-democratic movement. They collude, network, share donors, strategies, dirty tricks, ways to cheat, propaganda/disinformation networks, lies. Stephen Harper’s #IDU co-chair, indicted in Georgia in Trump/#GOP attempts to overthrow democracy. #cdnpoli
#Conservatives & #Republicans have been using, sharing and colluding for years. #IDU #NeverVoteConservative #cdnpoli https://t.co/4edSAIeQJFthetyee.ca/Analysis/2019/…
That time Andrew Scheer was super cagey and evasive about indicted Trump co-conspirator, Mike Roman, being part of his team.
