376 – The Rest of the News – Liberal Filibuster, Creeping Tyranny and Sunny Ways!

Let me get this straight: The NY Times can post to Twitter & Facebook its story on Trump’s taxes based on unnamed sources and documents it won’t produce. But the NY Post cannot post its story on Biden based on documents it produced. Confused? Don’t be. It’s political censorship.

Um, @TwitterSupport: Why are you telling me on my tweet thread: 'Nothing to see here — yet: From likes to Retweets and a whole lot more, this is where all the action happens.' It's my thread. It always has stuff on it. How come it's suddenly empty?

Nine different properties in Kenya were transferred from We Charity to a private company earlier this year. As I expose the massive real estate holdings of WE & their affiliated groups, we need to know who owns the company controlling this land.

Liberals enter 9th hour of filibustering Finance Committee motion to unblackout WE scandal documents.

There must be some bombshells in those docs for them to go to these lengths.

— Pierre Poilievre (@PierrePoilievre) October 15, 2020

When a party spends days trying to stop documents from being released there is normally a reason – they don't want them released.
Hard to argue with @PierrePoilievre here. https://t.co/bT4S3dS49K

Opposition MPs at the Ethics Committee of @ourcommons are trying to obtain personal financial information of private citizens. This is an abuse of power. They should let the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner do his job. #cdnpoli

Liberals shut down hearings on unblacking out WE scandal documents until tomorrow at 11am tomorrow.

They must be hiding something. #WEscandal

I am calling on the liberal members of Ethics to stop stonewalling production of documents on WE scandal.
Committee called for these documents last July.
Filibustering is wasting our time and interfering with the work of Parliament. @BShanahanLib @GregFergus @handongontario

It continues:

After promising to call a Finance Committee for 11am today, the Liberal chair reneged and canceled today's hearings.

Trudeau is prepared to grind committees to a halt to keep the truth from coming out in the WE scandal.

— Pierre Poilievre (@PierrePoilievre) October 16, 2020

Meanwhile at the Ethics Committee, Liberal MP @fsorbara is doing his best filibuster to stop the release of documents on who got paid in the Trudeau family by the folks at or around WE. Must be something awful for Libs to do this at two committees. #WEscandal #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/gJKTlh9dDP

I'm writing a deeper dive but here is the shocking number that should be headline news: 97.9%

97.9% decrease of confirmed flu cases to WHO FluNet/GISRS from weeks 15 through 40 from 2019 to 2020.

Last year, 119,737 confirmed flu cases (9.32% positive)
This year, 2,457 (0.18%)

Great to see Fort McKay’s Indigenous communities ready to engage on the potential construction of the Alaska-Alberta railway.

We’re still in the very early stage, but it’s clear that A2A could benefit Alberta’s First Nations communities along the route.https://t.co/WZom65ahBq

The Alberta government has just announced plans to repeal their controversial Bill 10, which let some ministerial orders sidestep the legislative process in the name of the pandemic. It’s rare and welcome news to see government relinquish newfound powers! https://t.co/Aq3j4JVXto

For too long, our newer and younger educators have been left behind.

Instead of seniority, teachers in Ontario will be hired based on merit and the unique needs of schools and communities in the province.
