What infuriates me is the arrogance of some #antivaxxers in the #OttawaOccupation claiming they are fighting for my freedoms too. They haven't lost freedom. They lost privileges b/c they CHOSE to be unvaccinated while THOUSANDS of vaccinated lost the right to needed surgeries.
#antivaxxers have not lost Freedom - choices have consequences.
Polls like Angus Reid, a Conservative pollster & that are self-selecting online polls, are giving #antivaxxers a false belief that they are in the majority & that most Canadians support them. They do not. 90% are vaccinated so #MathisHard? You're noisy - full stop.
#antivaxxers' freedom costs tens of thousands of Canadians needed surgeries as they are filling up hospitals so we don't have enough health professionals to accommodate vaccinated patients.
@Swiftie01 🤣 zero respect on the international stage:
winner of Five fossil awards & in 2013 a "lifetime unachievment award" for "obstructionist behavior"
@Swiftie01 PET Legacy vs what exactly was Harper's Legacy? Scandals? Authoritarian control of his caucus? Cutting over 20,000 federal servants with Draconian cuts while hiring 3,325 spin doctors?
@Swiftie01 the cuts were truly Draconian & dismantled social programs built over generations. CPC complains about outsourcing & have yet to look in the mirror. the cuts to housing were brutal.

The toxic drug carnage in AB is Poilievre's & Ms Goodridge's preferred system of care for addicted Canadians yet their toxic drug deaths are way up while BC's are dropping & they want to stop #harmreduction & #SaferSupply? SHAME! threadreaderapp.com/thread/1791570…
@LailaGoodridge @CPC_HQ @somerspsych @KmarkovCTV "Deaths in March 2024 are down 11% from March 2023. That’s the fourth month in a row of year-over-year decreases."
Chong conveniently forgets that many Canadians wanted the Senate abolished b/c of its highly partisan nature.
Despite promising less patronage appointments, Stephen Harper pushed 50+ to the Senate that consisted of many CPC staffers, donors & ex-candidates who lost their riding.
Will it dominate the news cycle like so many of #PierrePoilievre's LIES or phony scandals cooked up Journalists with anonymous sources, or will it be a 1-day article?

Why are Conservatives allowed to spew such BS without pushback from Journalists? It's not about blanket decriminalizing hard-core drugs. It's the possession of **small** amounts that won't mean an automatic prison sentence for an addict.
Comments on the Globe piece are a fine blocking opportunity.
Conservatives don't get that our fire season starts earlier, ends later, & burns much more area because of the #ClimateCrisis than in yrs past so what started the fire is irrelevant!
That CO2 is plant food is my fav!
Why Conservatives Turned against the Environment
They’re busy making accusations of “eco-radicalism” while the world burns. It wasn’t always like that
