Be on the lookout for accounts like these & accounts using this symbol. Report & block. They are toxic. #cdnpoli
What does it say that #CPC is peddling identical messaging as an openly fascist group? #cdnpoli
There are multiple accounts that have sprung up in the past year or so using “Canada First” &/or “Groyper”. (Goypers usually use some version of Pepe the Frog in the profile). These are far right extremists profiles, peddling RW propaganda & disinformation. #cdnpoli
Take a look at who follows white nationalist “Canada First News”. 2 former #StephenHarper cabinet ministers. The fact that Bernier was the choice for half the #CPC tells you how far to the right the party is. #ProtoFascism#cdnpoli

🧵Hmm, notice the latest trend of manipulative bullshit coming from the #CPC? You know, where they’re suddenly pretending to be centrists caring about others because their nonstop messaging of hate & divisiveness wasn’t working? #cdnpoli
Let’s start with Mr “Barbaric Cultural Practices” himself, Stephen Harper. Harper goes around the world undermining democracies through the #IDU & supporting far right authoritarians like Muslim hating ethno-nationalists like #ViktorOrban & #NarendraModi. #cdnpoli#CPC
#BlockedByRempel’s hypocrisy is grotesque. Michelle Rempel is a narcissist. There is nothing she does or says that isn’t entirely rooted in self-promotion or self-interest.
She promotes #Jan6th insurrectionist Stefanik, as if THAT is who 🇨🇦 should take direction from?! #cdnpoli
Rempel & Stefanik (like Hawley, Poilievre, Cruz etc) practice the same hypocritical faux populist rhetoric, to disguise the reality of what GOP/CPC are: instruments of a corrupt billionaire class, seeking to manipulate the public into voting against their own interests. #cdnpoli
Restating what many of us on #ONpoli have been saying all day: Trudeau’s gov’t sent millions of rapid tests to Ontario. They sat unused on shelves because of Ford. Not sent to schools last year for safe reopening, etc. Why?
To enrich political donors? #FordMustResign#cdnpoli
I tweeted about this last October. Loblaws, owner of #ShoppersDrugMart, invested $75M in Maple. They expect return on their investment through increased privatization of #Ontario’s public healthcare.
NEVER forget this. #DougFord has been the client of one of the most manipulative dark actors to ever operate on the Canadian political landscape: Navigator. They have coached him, planted stories in the press, shaped social media responses through inauthentic activity. #ONpoli
Remember this piece of lockstep propaganda in #cdnmedia?
Take note of who falls for #DougFord’s ridiculous crocodile tears today. The Trudeau gov’t transferred billions to Ford for #COVID19Ontario relief measures. Ford hoarded the💰instead of implementing #PaidSickDays. #ONpoli
Now that there are petitions demanding #DougFordResign, suddenly this incompetent conman can produce the #PaidSickDays that he was given federal funding to help pay for, OVER A YEAR AGO? Anyone who falls for #DougFord’s soap opera acting, is a fool, a liar or an enabler. #onpoli
3. Enter other issues, like cronyism between #Conservatives & pharma companies.
In 2011 Harper gave a 10 yr $425.9M contract to GSK (formerly GlaxoSmithKline). It required GSK to supply at least 15 million doses a month in a pandemic once its vaccine is ready #cdnpoli#COVID19CA
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
