—Don’t vote for these MPs in October.
Here are the Liberal MPs who voted to gag @Puglaas – and who voted to protect their masters in PMO from #LavScam. Let them know what you think. They should be ashamed of themselves. #cdnpoli@AHousefather @R_Boissonnault @AliEhsassi @ColinFraserMP @iamIqraKhalid @RonMcKinnonLib

Did Anthony Housefather actually vote? He’s the committee chair, so he normally wouldn’t vote unless there was a tie.
Which may be a distinction without a difference; but still, for the sake of complete accuracy…
No. He didn’t need to. The fix was in.
That’s what I thought.
I’m sure he’s glad he didn’t have to take a stand; but I also think that in the end, it won’t help his attempts to appear non-partisan. He’s implicated in this regardless.
Long time no see!
Yep! I guess I haven’t been checking in here for a while. But when the latest Liberal scandal broke, this was obviously the place to be.
Housefather is implicated as he recognized the Liberal member first and circumvented the due process of allowing the opposition to put forward their motion.
McKinnon and Boissoneault were going to be toast anyways, but Khalid and Elsassi could be vulnerable. Fraser is pretty safe and Housefather is ultra-safe (PET’s old seat).
Fraser has already announced that he’s not running for re-election. He’s one of the 4 NS MPs who have already said they’re not re-running (see Mark Eyking’s announcement at 5am this morning in the middle of a snowstorm)
Housefather is also a really nice guy. He tabled legislation to allow sperm donors to get paid. Also he looks like David Schwimmer.
Leave Housefather Alllloooonnneee!
