(1) @erinotoole, please accept this counter thread with the spirit of its intent.
There comes a time when you need to channel the raw frustration of your constituents – put them into articulate voice and focus – not pontificate about their delicate humanism in your arguments.

(2) @erinotoole The working class Canadian people are angry, very ANGRY. Your downplaying of their valid and justified sense of anger, is akin to a dismissal of very valid grievance, not just against Trudeau, but also against YOU.
(3) @erinotoole, What the hell kind nonsense is this? A concern about tone, sensibilities, portrayals?
If your goal was to miss the moment, skip the point, talk as if the media was YOUR audience, & put on a performance focused on the irrelevant; then, mission accomplished.

(4) @erinotoole , As a patient and frustrated pragmatist would say, (deep breath) … “When you’re done with all that, can you please address the central need of the voices assembled a few meters away shouting at you?”
HONK - HONK !
HONK - HONK !
(5) @erinotoole , This is the time in the history of government when the core, central and basic topic of FREEDOM is being eroded.
This is not a time for your delicate pastels. This is a time for bold and uncomfortable contrasts.

(6) @erinotoole , The Western values of representative government either support the basic tenet that people should be free, or that government does not. There is no middle ground.
(7) @erinotoole , We cannot be partially adherent to tyranny when the systems of government are demanding obedience to forced medical procedures.
At this moment of consequence, Canadians are either free to reject medical treatment – or not free. There is no middle ground.

(8) @erinotoole , We are either free, as unique individuals to move around our own country without some arbitrary registration process, or we are not free.
The premise of “papers please” is either rejected, or it is accepted. There is no middle ground.

(9) @erinotoole , These are the core tenets that must be determined, argued, fought about, defended and decided. There is no room for quisling prose or the parsing of personage amid the discussion.
Put your ego and personal pride on your mantle and represent.

(10) @erinotoole This is not a debate for the soft consideration about the tender sensibilities of small voices.
Hell, this is a debate that should never have been a debate, but here it is.
Knock, Knock – Wakey, Wakey – Honk, Honk.

(11) @erinotoole @PierrePoilievre , Every conservative politician must, in this moment of significance, rise to the needs of this occasion, fight for freedom like they are the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s Ark, or get the hell out of the way.
(12) @erinotoole , @PierrePoilievre, the moment is now.
The moment, this moment, is what the truckers of Canada, and the free people of every nation who support them, are trying to force upon unwilling, likely unworthy, leadership around the world.

(13) @erinotoole , @PierrePoilievre , Every conservative politician in Canada should be forced to look at this little girl and justify their action or lack thereof.
There is no middle ground.
Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way!
