1. Andrew Lawton peddles in extremism. Erin O’Toole treating this propagandist as an actual journalist, normalizes far right disinformation & pretends it’s legitimate & reasonable. It isn’t. It’s the subversion of objective truth & facts. #elxn44 #cdnmedia #StopTheCPC ImageImage
2. Andrew Lawton got his toxic start at “Rebel” so-called “News”. Where many far right extremists have gotten their propaganda launching pad. #NeverVoteCPC #NeverVoteConservative #Elxn44 #StopTheCPC ImageImageImageImage
3. On Canada Day, when many chose to observe a day of mourning, to honour Indigenous lives lost at the hands of systemic racism, Andrew Lawton chose instead to dog whistle to neo-Nazis. #NeverVoteCPC #NeverVoteConservative #Elxn44 #cdnmedia #StopTheCPC ImageImageImageImage
4. Now Lawton propagandizes for the equally toxic fake charity #TrueNorthCentre. The one Andrew Scheer told Canadians to listen to.
Please see past thread👇on this #DarkMoney funded disinformation operation: #NeverVoteCPC #NeverVoteConservative #Elxn44 https://t.co/VBrUlTDWD8
5. #TrueNorthCentre promotes similar disinformation as “Rebel News”, including amplifying white nationalists & xenophobic messaging. Tommy Robinson, for instance, is a well known neo-fascist, amplified by Rebel & TNC. #cdnmedia #NeverVoteCPC #Elxn44 #StopTheCPC ImageImageImageImage
6. Rebel “News”, #TrueNorthCentre #ErinOToole, #ProudBoys, #PPC & a seemingly endless list of far right MAGA type extremists, all use the “free speech” trope as cover to excuse unfettered distribution of lies & disinformation to completely pollute the information space. #Elxn44 ImageImageImageImage
6. “It really is my identity. It really is my culture & it’s as legitimate as anyone else’s culture” says CCFR spokesman. TNC puts out the most jaw-dropping NRA type propaganda. One that targets Trudeau with a viciousness that can only stoke violence. #NeverVoteCPC #StopTheCPC ImageImageImageImage
7. Thanks @househounds for this quote from @TorontoStar article from March 21, 2018. The #CPC’s ties to extremism have been routinely ignored or downplayed for many years. The 95% Conservative ownership of mainstream #cdnmedia is a big part of the problem. #Elxn44 #NeverVoteCPC Image

Already so tired of the “undecided voter” trope.

#Elxn44 #LeadersDebate
The bias from the moderator is already ridiculous. “You inspire people” she says to Jagmeet, then complains in her q that Trudeau “plunged the country” into an election. No minority government has ever lasted more than 2 years. We should vote mid winter?
#Elxn44   #LeadersDebate
OMG!!! O’Toole pretending to be a “pro choice ally”. Meanwhile he would have 14 rabid far right anti choice extremists in his cabinet. Unbelievable! #OTooleIsALiar

A woman came forward WITH RECEIPTS of PPC #MarcEmery’s grooming of her when she was underage. She showed the sexually explicit messages Emery sent to her as a 17 year old. Now SHE has been suspended @TwitterSafety, but an alleged predator who called for an assassination, isn’t??
Multiple other women have come forward with VERY similar stories re #MarcEmery, grooming them when they were underage, giving them drugs (ecstasy, acid etc, in addition to weed) & coercing them into sexual activity. Yet this man is still a PPC candidate. #elxn44 #cdnpoli
I have 6 extremely explicit messages #MarcEmery sent to Mel, (aka @CiaraHempseed) when she was 17. These messages were provided by Mel/Ciara, & came from Facebook archives from 2009. I won’t post them, but I do have them. Emery has had no consequences for his predation. #elxn44

PPC candidate who deleted his tweet calling for PMJT to be assassinated, has also been accused by multiple women of being groomed by him when they were underage. Here’s one of the women who retrieved an old FB message. My God these people are vile. #Elxn44 #PPCCandidates #cdnpoli
By the way #MarcEmery has been credibly accused of grooming underage girls for years now. This article was from 2019. huffingtonpost.ca/2019/01/22/mar…
Yet Emery is still a #PPC candidate. The political right is a scourge. #Elxn44  #cdnpoli

Why, in my view, is this a #CPC op & NOT originating with the PPC?

The CPC are the sole beneficiaries. They can look “reasonable” compared to the PPC & prevent #PPC from hiving off any CPC votes. But this op does other things too….#NeverVoteCPC #Elxn44 #NeverVoteConservative
…It gives #CPC plausible deniability for a sociopathic campaign straight out of the authoritarian playbook, it allows for gaslighting (as O’Toole has done, endlessly) & it creates an atmosphere of hate aimed at PMJT, while seeking to demoralize & intimidate Liberals. #Elxn44
These tactics are designed to attract others to join in & amplify the op to make it look organic. PPC attracts antisocial personality types who consume RW disinformation. So they would naturally be attracted to this type of engagement. Easy dupes, if you will. #NeverVoteCPC

Erin O’Toole’s mercenary PR team, Topham Guerin, that handled Boris Johnson’s campaign & Brexit, have a history of malign influence tactics that seem to follow them around. They learned at the knee of Lynton Crosby, aka Australia’s Karl Rove. #Elxn44 #NeverVoteCPC
#Facebook is utilized heavily in Topham Guerin strategies. Skirting election laws by using front groups setting up Facebook pages that pretend to be grassroots, thus avoid inclusion as 3rd party advertising. Working for Crosby, TG oversaw an entire disinformation network. #Elxn44
When working for Scott Morrison, Australia’s current conservative PM (the Liberal Party in Australia is the equivalent of the #CPC), similar tactics that we’re witnessing in 🇨🇦, could be seen. The left was targeted in addition to the right. An oft used tactic by the Right #Elxn44

TRIGGER WARNING.
1. A few years ago I heard about a horrific story where a developmentally delayed 13 y/o (who operated at the level of a 7 y/o, according to her mother) became pregnant from being raped by her stepfather. Anti-abortion groups sued the abortion provider. #elxn44
2. You read that correctly. Anti-abortion groups did not mount an action against the child’s abuser, but against the abortion clinic. Poilievre, Candice Bergen, Michael Barrett, Ed Fast, & every single #CPC MP on that list above, also believe….
#NeverVoteCPC #StopTheCPC #elxn44
3….what those anti-choice groups believed: this child should’ve been forced to carry a pregnancy resulting from horrific abuse.
In the beliefs of these #CPC MPs - who would be in charge of people’s lives - there should be no rape or incest exceptions. #NeverVoteCPC #elxn44
