Some interesting background for the Trudeau...Holly <br />Some interesting background for the Trudeau thing; yesterday evening a Calgary restaurant tweeted about Trudeau visiting; and idiot rightwinger Craig Chandler then tweeted to the resaurant asking if they support Liberals. He apparently wanted to avoid eating in a "Liberal" restaurant and also to work up some PR. <br /><br />He's been in various parties in Ontario & Alberta, never elected. Planned to run for provincial PC's but they talked him into not running but helping with their next campaign. Mistake on their part, he's more likely to lose them votes.<br /><br />Anyway, he got savaged on twitter and ended up whining about all the liberals abusing him and acting like the Gestapo, etc. Fun to read!<br /><br />The restaurant's original tweet:<br /><br />https://twitter.com/CHARCUT/status/563431388305969152<br /><br />Chandler's first:<br /><br />https://twitter.com/CraigBChandler/status/563441244529897472<br /><br />Some of the twitterers were probably partisan Liberals happy to jump on an idiot PC, but there were others too...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-90007072712499126202015-02-06T14:56:54.256-08:002015-02-06T14:56:54.256-08:00Hi Holly : Got your messages but have comment mod ...Hi Holly : Got your messages but have comment mod on for posts over two weeks old - cuts down on nutters and spammers marvelously. Thanks for the mention on twitter btw<br /><br />Oily says to tell you it's always Oily the Splot Day somewhere in Canada.<br /><br />re : Trudeau and his proposal : "national targets for reducing carbon emissions but would allow provinces to design their own policies to meet them".<br />Didn't Harper already sorta propose this in his year-end with Mansbridge, saying Alberta's carbon levy pricing system could go broader and suggesting the idea of implementing a national carbon levy?<br />This would presumably be completely different from the NDP's "job-killing carbon tax" *eye roll*<br />Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09811694143714068436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-33780763643250180302015-02-06T14:21:54.741-08:002015-02-06T14:21:54.741-08:00Holly here:
