Being kind isn't hard and being optimistic is easy if you view the world as partners on this planet.

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/

A few thoughts on Liberal Twitter:
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

@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

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.

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
