Reduce the Shitberal party to 2 seats like 1993, just keep Kirsty Duncan and Kamal Khera.

![]() .@RalphGoodale how did you vote on gay marriage in 2005? And while we are going back in history, where was Trudeau during that time? Oh ya- He was groping women and saying they experience it differently. Where’s that apology? You’re hooped in everyway on this one Ralph. 🇨🇦Verified account Replying to @RalphGoodale 12:28 PM - 22 Aug 2019 491 Retweets 1,122 Likes![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() Mr. Scheer has been an MP for 5,533 days, but hasn't found a single day to celebrate Pride, and thus defend EVERY Canadian's human rights. Where better to begin than this weekend at his very own hometown Pride in Ottawa? 6:31 AM - 22 Aug 2019 346 Retweets 1,251 Likes![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

NDP leader says he can't trust Andrew Scheer 'to champion the fundamental rights of Canadians'

![]() NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said today his party would not support a Conservative government led by Andrew Scheer in a minority Parliament scenario after October's federal election. The statement by Singh on Thursday came after the Liberals circulated a video of the Conservative leader speaking out against same-sex marriage during a debate in the House of Commons nearly 15 years ago. "The resurfacing of Andrew Scheer's disgusting prejudice against LGBTQI2S+ people and families is very painful for many Canadians," Singh said in his statement. "This is exactly why, if Canadians deliver a minority government in October, I will not prop up Andrew Scheer and the Conservatives. We can't trust Mr. Scheer or his caucus to champion the fundamental rights of Canadians." On Thursday, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale tweeted a video of a 2005 speech by Scheer in which he opposed the Civil Marriage Act, which legalized same-sex marriage in Canada later that year. The Liberals are pressing Scheer to attend the upcoming Ottawa Pride parade. The Pride parade in the national capital takes place Sunday, just a week after Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson came out as openly gay after decades in public life. A Conservative minority government needing the support of the NDP to survive in a minority Parliament is not an unlikely scenario. The polls suggest both the Liberals and Conservatives likely would fall short of a majority if an election were held today and would need the support of another party to govern. In the current context, the NDP is the only party likely to win enough seats to hold the balance of power. What Scheer said in 2005"There is nothing more important to society than the raising of children, for its very survival requires it," Scheer said in his 2005 speech to the Commons, delivered about a year after he was elected as the Conservative MP for the Saskatchewan riding of Regina-Qu'Appelle for the first time. "Homosexual unions are by nature contradictory to this," he continued. "There is no complementarity of the sexes. Two members of the same sex may use their God-given free will to engage in acts, to co-habit and to own property together. They may commit themselves to monogamy. They may pledge to remain in a loving relationship for life. "In that sense they have many of the collateral features of marriage, but they do not have its inherent feature, as they cannot commit to the natural procreation of children. They cannot therefore be married." Most Conservative MPs voted against the gay marriage bill. So did a number of Liberal MPs — as the Conservatives pointed out today in their reply to the Liberals' attack. Goodale himself voted in favour of legalizing same-sex marriage in 2005, but voted against a private member's motion calling for the recognition of same-sex spouses in 1995. In 1999, Goodale voted in favour of a motion embracing the definition of marriage as a bond between one man and one woman, and saying that Parliament should do what it can to protect it. Trudeau rails against Conservatives in foreign policy speech Opposition parties to push for ethics commissioner to testify on SNC-Lavalin scandal A campaign loss on climate change would turn the issue into a political 'loser': TrudeauThe Conservatives, meanwhile, accused the Liberals of trying to distract Canadians from the SNC-Lavalin scandal. "Andrew Scheer unequivocally supports equal LGBTQ rights, including same-sex marriage as defined in law," the Conservative Party said in a statement. "He has advocated in the House for marginalized LGBTQ communities around the world." Scheer has softened his stance on same-sex marriage since the debates over the Civil Marriage Act. He supported a move to erase the traditional definition of marriage from the Conservative Party of Canada's policy book at its 2016 convention, arguing Canadians already had their say in two elections where same-sex marriage was a major issue, and that it had been legal for more than a decade. But the Conservative leader has declined to march in Pride parades. With files from Canadian Press |

![]() In 2004, the @SCC_eng ruled that the marriage of same-sex couples is constitutional and in 2005 the law was changed. People of all stripes have supported #LGBTQ2 rights. The @CPC_HQ Leader should clearly state his position on this hard-fought human right. #LoveIsLove ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Let me love you Barefoot Barbie ![]() Shameful. In Canada, everyone should feel free to be who they are and love who they love — and our leaders should support them. Every person deserves the same rights and opportunities, no matter who they love. Be proud of who you are, Canada! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() Second retweet: reflecting on this from my life as clergy. I married literally hundreds of couples. Some would be blessed with children; others not. What is Scheer saying about a couple in their 60s who find love late in life? Not a marriage? He insults not only LGBTQ people. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() Be an ally, do everything in our power to ensure no Canadian experiences barriers to equality of opportunity, and support love without qualification. Let success on these fronts be measured by our actions, and refrain from using humans and their rights as political props.

About Liz May ![]() She’s part of the political establishment just like the others: in favour of big government, climate alarmist, globalist, pro mass immigration. Why would she want me to question all this nonsense at the debates? The PPC is taking votes away from her too.

They need to clean up the party for a while, while Andrew/Bernier clean up the country, then Chrystia Plutocrat can free my land.
