The Trudeau PMO Is Spreading Disinformation Online

Yet we see once again that the ‘rules’ only apply to those who criticize the Trudeau government.

The Trudeau Liberals have made a big deal about their supposed ‘fight against disinformation.’

Of course, they’ve been using that as an excuse to crack down on social media and restrict the ability for their political opponents to get their message out.

We can see how deceptive and hypocritical the Liberals are being by the fact that some of their top level operatives are blatantly spreading disinformation online.

Consider this Tweet from Cameron Ahmad, the director of communications at the Trudeau PMO:

“When he was Prime Minister, Stephen Harper refused to meet with Premiers. His government froze funding for services like health care, childcare, & housing. He refused to work with provinces on climate change. His ministers disrespected Indigenous governments & communities.”

Really?

Harper didn’t meet with Premiers?

Then what’s this?

How about this?

And this?

This?

Oh, what’s this?

Huh.

It almost seems as if Harper met with Premiers.

And what about Ahmad’s claim that Harper froze funding for healthcare?

In fact, funding for healthcare grew by either 6% or 3% in every year of the Harper Government:

“Under the old formula for calculating the transfers, which fell to the former Harper government to renew, transfers got a six per cent bump each year. Under the updated formula, introduced in 2012, transfers would grow by six per cent through the 2016/17 fiscal year, after which they would increase by an amount tied to the growth rate of Canada’s gross domestic product — or, alternatively, by three per cent per year, if the economy performed poorly.

In other words, the transfers would still increase every year — but the rate at which they would was vulnerable to fluctuation.”

When it comes to “working with provinces on climate change,” the Liberals have zero credibility, considering the massive provincial backlash against the carbon tax they’re forcing on unwilling provinces.

And finally, perhaps Ahmed has forgotten that Trudeau is now less popular among Indigenous Canadians than Scheer, gets overwhelmingly negative job performance ratings from Indigenous Canadians, and arrogantly told an Indigenous protester worried about mercury contamination “thanks for your donation.”

It’s clear that the Liberals are spreading disinformation, which is supposedly against their own rules.

As Rachel Curran points out on Twitter, the Trudeau government is spreading “brazen lies:”

“All shameless, brazen lies – every single point. This is classic and deliberate #disinformation which should be addressed by the new election monitoring committee and social media platforms. Government officials must be held to a higher standard than internet trolls.”

So, will the Liberals hold themselves to their own standards?

Don’t hold your breath.
