    What was the bullshit question? Also, I don’t get what this piece is trying to convey, exactly, but I appreciate the lengths it goes to in order to technically not be slander.

    Fuck Polievre and all, but I don’t take kindly to smear campaign tactics, and neither should you - no matter how important the cause

      The question that Carney got asked was if he intended to repay for the flights to go meet Macron and the King last month. The journalist clearly wanted to paint Carney as a frivolous spender or something like that.

        The “journalist” was from Rebl “news”, IIRC.

        So less of a journalist and more of a lying right wing shit disturber.

        Yup. Gotta love it when the guy tries to call out Carney on doing what several Conservative premiers have done over and over these last few months without being questioned by media. Hell, Smith did a meet and greet in Florida just last week, and Ford gives more interviews to Fox News than any Canadian outlets it seems.

      While every ounce of my being agrees with you, I have a feeling that some people only respond to these kind of tactics.
