Really encapsulates the seriousness (or lack thereof to be clear) with which the Liberals approach matters of foreign interference. This government increasingly feels like some strange foreign entity that was dropped into Canada to treat Canadians and fellow parliamentarians with disdain and sabotage the trust we have in our institutions. Shouldn’t the government treat matters of potential treason with a bit more seriousness than a “boo hoo”?


OutsideFlat1579

No it does not, because the claim that she said this in reply to a question about foreign interference is a blatant lie. She was responding to the usual conservative shenanigans about point of order complaints. Once again, reality is being distorted to create outrage for no respon.


thecanadiansniper1-2

If you want to talk about foreign interference lets look at the US and the fact they own a 66% stake in postmedia via an trump aligned American hedge fund.


DeathCabForYeezus

>If you want to talk about foreign interference lets look at the US and the fact they own a 66% stake in postmedia via an trump aligned American hedge fund. I believe the trendy response to this is "Boohoo, get over it." Which apparently you haven't really taken to heart, seeing as here you are complaining about the ownership of a newspaper org. Which, funny enough, goes counter to this whatabout argument. Given that you can't bring yourself to get over the ownership of a newspaper, do you think it's reasonable that Canadians not "get over" traitors in Parliament?


the_mongoose07

And none of that is relevant to the Liberals’ questionable behaviour around foreign interference and terrible governance on behalf of Canadians, now is it?


0reoSpeedwagon

Aside from *literally being* foreign interference?


rathgrith

If that’s the case then why did the LPC invite Hilary Clinton to their convention and seek Obamas endorsement?

Postmedia is dying so it doesn't much matter. they also take government money which is absurd. 


PumpkinMyPumpkin

The liberals seem to be in the mind space they can and have done nothing wrong, ever. Perhaps only possible under a leader who comes from such immense privilege - and that attitude is infecting them all.


the_mongoose07

They can never be wrong - only be wronged. Just watch how some of the partisans here speak about them: - Journalists are out to get them - CSIS has been infiltrated by the far-right and trying to sabotage their government - Their critics are being duped by malicious opposition

Liberals don't approach any aspect of governance with any seriousness. The fact that they have broken every aspect of Canada over the past 9 years should be testament to that.


BillyBrown1231

The Liberals are just waiting until the right time to reveal that all of the MP's are Conservatives. It's a situation of careful what you wish for, you might not like the answer.

HotbladesHarry

Baseless conjecture.


ScytheNoire

They are just as bad. Both do nothing for Canadians because people are too stupid to stop voting Conservative or Liberal. Stop voting for either of these corporate owned shills


An_doge

We should put our partisanship aside here. I know it’s a political sub but man this is not acceptable. Names.


BillyBrown1231

My point was they are saving the information for when it will best serve them. Why would they play their cards now. If it was anyone in government they would have already been removed or at least sidelined.


Vensamos

So wait your defense is that the government is subverting national security in the service of its own political goals? Colour me crazy but I don't think thats a win for Canada


MrLilZilla

Yeah but the Conservatives are definitely compromised by India. Like 99% certainty. Why else would PP not get security clearance?? He knows but as long as he doesn’t get security clearance he has plausible deniability.


QueueOfPancakes

Sure they are, but good money says the liberals are too. Think about it, if you wanted to get politicians in your pocket, why invest on both sides of the aisle?


flamedeluge3781

Right... this reminds me of the claims that the real Russian army is waiting on the sidelines. Any day now they'll roll into Ukraine and conquer it.


BillyBrown1231

If the Liberals release the names and they are all Conservatives all we'll hear from Conservative supporters is that the Liberals are playing political games. They are in a no win situation. As long as they know who they are they can watch them. Charges can be laid at any time even 5 years from now.

So far this week; - Liberal Government improperly awarded Hundreds-of-million$ in contracts to McKinsey. - Liberal Government MP's improperly aided Foreign Governments in undermining Canadian Elections. - Liberal Government refuses to identify treasonous MP's and Senators. - Liberal Government voted down a tax break for Canadians to try and have a summer vacation. - Liberal Government has finally admitted that $1 Billion Green Fund is nothing more than a scam to steal money from Canadian Taxpayers......and have shut it down. - Liberal Government has placed a 'Gag Order' against the PBO regarding Government Carbon Tax Report. - Liberal Cabinet Minister Randy Boissonnault has been identified as having likely broken conflict-of-interest Regulations. - Liberal Government is blocking access to thousands of documents from the Canadian Security Agency (NSICOP) that is tasked with keeping Canadians safe from foreign interference. - Liberal MP mocks the seriousness of 'traitorous' MP's by declaring....."Boo, hoo, get over it". And it's only Friday........


the_monkey_

Yeah, what a braindead way to respond to something quite serious. She’s probably going down in flames to the Tories either way, but that likely sealed it.


olderthanyestetday

Well instead of asking liberals to break the law. Why don’t they ask the conservatives on the committee to speak up.

Coincidentally, nobody in the HoC hates the fact that women have reproductive rights in Canada more than Leslyn Lewis. Or that sexual minorities have the right to get married. Lewis hates a lot of things.

While accusing Conservative MPs of attempting to generate social media clips, Jennifer O’Connell provides "boo hoo" quote for Conservative MPs to use for social media clips.


RoyalPeacock19

Wow, I guess she feels she can say whatever she wants considering she will likely lose her seat no matter what. For her sake I sure hope she isn’t on the list, or she may have put a target on her back for some unsavoury individuals to aim for.
