FUREY: The carbon tax ruling is judicial activism at its worst https://t.co/Afp2gXtPYt

Shaming is important as is a complaint to the Canadian Judicial Council

But here’s another concern. The same Chief Justice is also Governor General for now. This decision should have been postponed. Wearing both hats while making a major political statement in a ruling is odd https://t.co/j2sKTMWXHr

A lawyer for WE's CFO has written to committee to state that providing a list of the schools were actually built and where "would require months of work."
This should be a no-brainer.https://t.co/NYQvZGe6kn

This happens everywhere. "Journalists" go to the hair-on-fire" health care workers for inflammatory stories and NEVER ask for data or evidence.

Story turns out to be false.

The fear-based info campaign is run by us forces we can no longer trust.https://t.co/TlnKyt2GSR

China says it has imposed sanctions against Conservative MP @MichaelChongMP over what it calls 'rumors and disinformation' in response to sanctions levied by Canada on groups in China’s Xinjiang region https://t.co/QCXSwvnzZq

Today's sanctions on MPs by China are attempt to silence free speech and debate in the heart of our democracy: Parliament.

We won’t be silenced.

We will continue to speak up about China’s violations of international law in Hong Kong and in the Uyghur genocide. https://t.co/nbD48612j4

— Michael Chong 🇨🇦 (@MichaelChongMP) March 27, 2021

China’s sanctions are an attack on transparency and freedom of expression – values at the heart of our democracy. We stand with Parliamentarians against these unacceptable actions, and we will continue to defend human rights around the world with our international partners. https://t.co/gtMleSAaEd
