MacDougall goes on an explicit rant and tells convoy members to "watch themselves" because he'll "get revenge." Should he be fired? 🤔🙄

This is false. The chief elections officer had proposed changes. He is an independent officer of parliament, not a Liberal.

Hey @Trevornoah - thanks for everything you’re doing to celebrate Nelson Mandela’s legacy at the @GlblCtzn festival. Sorry I can’t be with you - but how about Canada pledges $50M to @EduCannotWait to support education for women & girls around the world? Work for you? Let’s do it.

Touched down in Malaysia! I'm looking forward to a productive week of meeting with officials, industry leaders, and partners from Canada and the Indo-Pacific to promote our world-class products - like the lobster I enjoyed for lunch in Kuala Lumpur! 🦞

I hate this. You drag yourself out to listen to a boring speech and then the politicians’ flunkies tell you to get lost. No questions. I could have stayed home! No class.

Enough is enough. Its time for the Trudeau government to stand up for the rule of law. Blockades are not protests - they are an attack on the freedom of Canadians to live their lives and travel freely through their own country.

No tweet from @MaximeBernier or @peoplespca about terrorist attack in Christchurch. He likely wants to avoid alienating some of his supporters by expressing solidarity with the victims.

Maxime Bernier doesn't believe that human activity causes climate change, he says in scrum. I always find that kind of amazing. It's like not believing in the Bay of Fundy. It's not a matter of opinion.

François Legault. Rex Murphy. Stockwell Day. All three have done things in their lives that I admire. But when they deny systematic racism, they are denying reality. You can't fix a problem if you don't think you have a problem.

As I have been researching Diagolon, I keep thinking of a line from James Baldwin: "I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense that once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.”

I don’t know who these men around ⁦ @JustinTrudeau ⁩ are - and I am not casting doubt on the idea that there was a security threat - but the clothes they are wearing are not normal RCMP or CAF uniforms. They may be ex-military but forces don’t protect politicians.

I am told LPC has reached a deal with CPC to pass coronavirus compromise plan tonight. It only took this long because of huge Liberal miscalculation yesterday. Epic frig-up.
