.. a sitting MP who’s on a town hall tour and who is holding some of them in (gasp) CONSERVATIVE held ridings?
Or, another sitting MP of the BC Caucus from another party makes an appointment of a “go-to” person in an opposition held riding where that MP (from outside the riding as well) calls that elected MP irrelevant for the riding and openly tells people to ignore him and go to
” the government go-to person” to get better service? Call me biased, but I think the latter is much more grievously wrong then the former.
That’s not how some Conservative supporters in Alberta see it though. Mr. Turner got a letter from an outraged Conservative supporter in Alberta (where some of the Town Hall meetings are going to be held), claiming he was a “back-stabber” and was showing treasonous activity; apparently in her mind, holding town-hall meetings that talk about what the Conservative government is doing wrong is akin to attempting “overthrowing a Government”. It sounds as if she’s using the same rationale Conservative PC candidate Craig Chandler used when telling people who moved to Alberta to either adopt conservative ideals and vote Conservative, or leave.
Apparently the concept of “Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition” is lost on both Mr Chandler and her. Its also more proof that GHG emissions out there are having more adverse side-effects on people then previously thought. It appears all sense of rational thought is being destroyed out there - particularly those of the Conservative persuasion.
Speaking of rational thought, it seems odd that Iggy, known as the 'smart' liberal, is on board with using the puffin, a bird whose 'admirable' traits are hiding it's own shit and flapping it's wings, would make a fine mascot for the liberal party.
Oddly enough, I agree with him.
