The Conservatives are basically making an election rigging claim in their most recent fundraising email.
Yes, really. CBC News first reported this, and I have also independently confirmed it (because the Conservatives sent this email straight to my inbox).
The subject of the email, which was sent from CPC HQ, reads “the Liberals want more seats.” It warns that “the Liberals are working to flip just enough seats to edge closer to a majority.”
Pardon me?
But the most egregious line is right near the bottom — complete with a link to donate. It reads:
“The Liberals are fighting hard to tip the scales. Help us hold the line in these critical recounts. Chip in now.”
Pardon me?!?
I’ll break down this email, then we’ll have a little lookahead chat about the cabinet announcement next week — since I’ll be away!
I’m taking next week off for some much-needed post-election rest before Parliament returns.
(It’s also my birthday on May 19th! So I’ll be back online May 20th.)
I always feel a bit guilty taking time off, because I want to make sure your support is continually earned with regular, quality information. I am so incredibly grateful you’re here, and I never want you to think I take it for granted.
That said, my videos will get really awful if I allow my brain to shrivel to a prune due to burnout. So, with that in mind, I’ll see you when I’m older, wiser, and better rested!
Until then. 💞
