    What sucks is that this is ultimately what Pierre wants. Now he can cry that he’s a victim of censorship and fire off a fundraising email.

    The conservatives have completely abandoned decorum and are causing chaos for their electoral benefit.

    I honestly wish we had the more non-partisan rules of the speakership from the British parliament. It’s too easy with Speaker Fergus’ (somewhat unfairly acquired) baggage and obvious Liberal affiliations that this just looks like a “deep-state” “gatekeepers” abuse of power, which it totally is not.

    Politicizing parliamentary procedure (as he did during his woefully hilarious filibuster attempt last sitting) and recently parliamentary rules and decorum is populism run amok and indeed deliberate degradation of liberal democratic institutions.

    I guess anything is an opportunity for PP to rage farm. I can’t wait the day where he will be PM where Canada will stop being affected by international events because they are all due to the liberals policy 😉
