Canada's #ForeignInterference 🧵 /14

If you ever wonder how PM contender #Poilievre could make it THIS FAR without ever taking (let alone passing) a routine security check, look no further. These are the repercussions of our longtime ongoing widespread national media failure.

Same guy flying that flag refuses to get a routine security clearance during an ever-growing #ForeignInterference scandal because he knows he won't pass it. #Poilievre has nothing close to resembling a good reason. If this were Trudeau our media would be apoplectic /15 #cdnpoli

Poilievre tweet screenshot reads "9 years of NDP-Liberal policies have devastated our country.

Common sense Conservatives will restore Canada’s promise so that each generation is better off than the one before.

Poileve tweet reads: "15,000 Canadians line up in one day for ugly potatoes so they can eat.

Does #Poilievre *really* think he can just coast to the next election without ever addressing why he can't pass a routine #SecurityClearance? Cat's out of the bag. Even our largely lousy #NationalMedia's covering it now

@TheGentYYC #FourthEstateFilth has infiltrated #CdnMedia thanks to #ChairmanHarper. Canadian law used to forbid the sale of Canadian cultural assets to foreign entities until Harper signed off on the #postmedia deal. He allowed and welcomed this foreign slime onto our soil. Why? He was desperate to win the election and he knew they would support him. We kicked him to the curb, but are still stuck with his toxic legacy.

Looks a lot like an admission that Con MP #MichaelChong thinks, like the rest of us, that #Poilievre has BAD STUFF in his past that a routine #SecurityClearance (which the rest of Canada's party leaders had no problem taking) would bring to light, no?

Gushing fangirl #DanielleSmith abuses power for now known Russian asset #JordanPeterson. Embarrassing (again) on a number of levels not the least of which being politicians rightly have ZERO control over rules an association places on itself. What a goof.

Danielle Smith tweet reads "Watching @jordanbpeterson

That’s why we are changing the law to ensure no one in Alberta will ever be punished by their professional body for standing up and sharing their views. In this province, we protect the voices that challenge, question, and inspire.

No surprise to folks that know her trashy work but #RobynUrback's the latest faux journo to lamely try to turn the #ForeignInterference channel to #Trudeau rather than asking the prime question in Canadian politics today: why can't #Poilievre pass a routine #SecurityClearance?

It'd be funny if it weren't so reckless. First part of #RobynUrback's tweet is a frank admission of what this 🧵's said all along: our national media's mostly failing Canadians in its #ForeignInterference coverage. Honest journalists would be outraged. Urback's never been one #cdnpoli

To be clear I'm not saying #RobynUrback takes money from the Russians like #JordanPeterson & #Tucker do, but rather her journalistic integrity has always been so low that she does Putin's work without even knowing it. There's a phrase for that.

It's more than just #Poilievre. #NovaScotia Premier Tim Houston can't call an election fast enough before the Dec 31st #ForeignInterference report drops, that's even though he passed (and has now broken) fixed election date legislation.

Curiouser and curiouser.

A Russian influenced #antivax #FreedomConvoy was all an otherwise largely unknown #Poilievre needed to rise to the pinnacle of #RightWing power in Canada. We've ALWAYS needed more answers on all this, never more so than now.

Yet the bulk of our #NationalMedia can't bring itself to ask the most basic questions of the man they are also telling us is going to be our next Prime Minister. Curious, that.
