#Poilievre had every chance to get his security clearance & no good reason for not doing it, just as Canada's national media had every chance to hold him to account for it & couldn't be bothered, some would say by design.

Every journalist like #JohnIbbitson that gave #Poilievre a FULL FREE PASS for inexplicably balking over & over again at taking a routine background check are working very hard today to turn the story onto PM #Trudeau. Damning.

@LALegault #JohnIbbitson at #TheGlobeAndMail called out #Liberal fence sitting on this today. Still no definitive statement, it seems. He notes the caucus itself is divided - Anthony Housefather and Marco Mendocino are clearly on the #Israeli side while others like Salma Zahid want the atrocities to stop.

Liberals trying to play both sides in Gaza conflict

Changing demographics and divisions among progressives are reflected in the Liberal caucus and in the uncertain response of the Trudeau government to accusations of Israeli genocide in Gaza

Will this decade be called the "Dark Twenties", in post-pandemic economic sociology? #JohnIbbitson writes:
> It took years for Western economies to fully recover from the economic shock of 2008-09. This shock is far worse. How much worse? No one can be sure. [....]

> We are entering the Dark Twenties. No one knows when or how it will end.

It’s increasingly clear our tough road ahead has no end in sight

There’s no indication of when businesses will be able to reopen again, and it may be that we are entering the Dark Twenties
