@SusanDelacourt makes some good points, But lets be clear, it's way past time we talked about this.
The media barely covered the 'Friendly Sausage Maker' who broke into Rideau Hall. He's now a footnote in the hate business column. 1/ #cdnpoli#Elxn44
The day before Canada Day 2020, Erin O'Toole released this mocking video of the Prime Minister.
Priming the troops for the Canada Day protest ? 2/ #cdnpoli
On Canada 2020 day we saw a protest on Parliament Hill and O'Toole tweeted about 'cancel culture' and the Maple Leaf flag. 3/ #cdnpoli
The following day July 2nd 2020 enter Corey Hurren.
Did he attend the rally on Parliament Hill on July 1st, perhaps he did. But Erin O'Toole never condemned the action or this man in the aftermath of Rideau Hall attack. #cdnpoli 4/
A few weeks later in Aug 2020 Erin celebrated his leadership win after using the services of the far right founder of Canada Proud. I see Erin O'Toole in the midst of the festivities without a mask.... in the middle of a Pandemic. #cdnpoli 5/
Dec 2020 Erin O'Toole needed publicity after his win. So very handy to have contacts like Andrew Lawton and True North. The far right seems too close to Erin. 6/ #cdnpoli
Some people follow rules and some don't. When Canadians were told not to visit family and definitely not our grandparents in Dec 2020...before vaccines were even available Erin went to see his 96 yr old Grandma. 7/ #Privilidge#cdnpoli
And quite frankly I found it offensive that I followed the rules when a prospective Prime Minister did not.
In a damn garage,10 feet apart and no close contact. 8/
But wait there's more. Erin O'Toole and the CPC then decided to throw out some rhetoric, that Trudeau was going to rig the election. Them's fighting words for the far right. 9/ #cdnpoli
Erin O'Toole by his words and easy association with Rebel Media, True North & Canada Proud, tells me all I need to know about the man, his party and the base they appeal to. This is not the Canada I know and love. Please vote wisely on Sept 20th. 10/ #cdnpoli
Over the course of 8 yrs the so called 'Loyal opposition' has found fault with my gov't. 1) Phoenix...a pay system that Harper wanted. He chose Miramachi as the new pay center to capture votes.
He gave a civil service award to the architect for a job well done/on time. 🤣 1/
Trouble was, the architects failed to warn the new gov't that it had not been tested & essentially said it was good to go. Hiring staff in NB was difficult and totally screwed the complicated roll out. Gov't pay systems are unlike no other 2/
2/ I think Admiral Normal came next. He didn't seem to understand that he worked for the Trudeau Gov't and went rogue by approaching a shipyard without going up the chain. Months passed before 3 former Cons stepped up and said 'Yes we told him to do this' 3/
I've seen Erin O'Toole point to a blue outhouse, post a video of the PM dressed as woman, be unable to pick a lane to suit his supporters, flip flop on policy, suck up to the gun lobby & protect racists in the CPC. 1/6 #cdnpoli
I've seen Jagmeet Singh wax poetic about all the things he wants while forgetting how this country operates. Jurisdiction *is* a 'thing' ...snapping fingers does not work, threats to withhold support does not work 2/6 #cdnpoli
I've watched the PM stick handle the pandemic for 19 months, support Cdns, procure vaccines & keep the economy afloat. Meanwhile his wife was grossly insulted, gravel thrown at him. Premiers took $$ & still complained....send more Justin! 3/6 #cdnpoli
Ms. Harrison was asking a question of Erin O'Toole and then complained the video was manipulated. Twitter then labelled Minister Freeland's post as manipulated. Notice the language? #cdnpoli #cdnmedia
Ms. Harrison has an acquaintance in Conservative circles.
This would be Michelle Austin who is currently Head of Public Policy for Twitter in Canada.
This connection can't be ignored if we are to have a fair election.
BTW Michelle Austin has been associated with the Conservative Party of Canada for some time.
Ombudsman Gary Walbourne was shocked that PCO had been told about a complaint against Vance.
Why was he shocked? If you tell a Minister something of a serious nature. One would expect it would be acted on by said Minister.....& it was.
Thread 1/4
If consent from the complainant is required why did the Gary Walbourne (ombudsman) say anything to Minister Sajjan. 2/4
So why did the complainant go to the ombudsman if she didn't want it made public and what was Mr. Walbourne's reason for going against the wishes of the complainant ? 3/4
