Liberal MP Joël Lightbound lightly criticized some of the stances of Canadian Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday. Within hours, the peer and party pressure upon him led to his removal from his position as Chairman of the Quebec caucus.
Lightbound encouraged the Trudeau government to provide targets to lifting restrictions; he was not implying that public health measures should be lifted immediately. He also committed the cardinal sin against COVID by asking for epidemiological data behind restrictions to be published, so people can see the information determining what measures need to be in place.
Transparency is against the interests of those within the government who weaponize covid fear. The Liberal MP also spoke about the ongoing anti-mandate protests that started as a response to cross-border vaccine mandates, saying that messaging amid the demonstrations is dividing Canadians. WATCH:
“I fear that this politicization of the pandemic risks undermining the public’s trust in our public health institutions. This is not a risk we ought to be taking lightly. I have enough respect for my fellow Canadians not to engage in these easy and absurd labels.”
The response was immediate and severe. There can be no dissent from leftist orthodoxy.
Keep in mind that Lightbound is in the same party as Trudeau. And he WAS Chairman of the Quebec caucus.

Different opinions will NOT be tolerated!
Tabernak!!!
Awesome. Lines are being drawn.
Those bastards know, at least for now; they have the upper hand and have you by the balls and will not tolerate any objection. The ones we have here in our own government are no different, as far as hat goes it is pretty much the same story worldwide when it comes to socialism. What will be interesting to see is what kind of an event will it take to bring about a change for the better.
Very rarely that people change on their own unless it severely hurts their pocketbooks, or their health and we are not quite there yet. But if and when we get there, better hang on to your hats.
It seems to me we’re not appreciating the degree to which Canadians are left wing.
I will predict a 75 percent chance we are going there. There needs to be Trudeax and claws schwab (and lots of others) doing the spandeax ballet from lampposts.
“””It seems to me we’re not appreciating the degree to which Canadians are left wing”””
What we are not appreciating is that the big cities control the Canadian Government.
The only thing that saves the United States from a similar situation is our Electoral College.
Vancouver, Toronto, Quebec City, Montreal have more votes in Parliament than do the people who live outside those cities.
Yes. But he is a Quebec City MP. If he jumps Caucuses life will begin to get a bit more lively on the hill.
I think we’ve reached the point where the majority of people in the developed nations are now quite aware that this is no longer about concern for health, if it ever was.
Democrats seem to be cancelling mandates at a record pace, as if they know people are at last beginning to think good and hard about what’s been going on for the past two years, and starting to wonder who might be behind it all.
You may be right. Could be time to look into lamp post stocks.
Yep. Plenty of people in Alberta think those people are a bunch of “damn communists” from what someone told me.
Look how swift and ruthless the Liberal Party is to their own leaders compared to how meek and soft the Republican Party is to traitors Lizard Cheney and Kinzinger.
Off with his head.
I think we are on the same page my friend, if I may say so.

Castroite Marxism is strong in that group led by Comrade Trudeau, Jr.
