@MerriamWebster If you're bothered by singular "their"
Of this you might not be aware:
One "you" should be "thou"
(But to talk that way now
Makes one sound like an old-fashioned square)
@PierrePoilievre This is Canada. You can’t “immediately lock up” anyone without due process. A serious “PM-in-waiting” would respect our laws and everyone’s human rights.
Arrest them. Charge them. Let them have their day in court.
We’re trying to have a civilization here.
@SoundDobad I know this may sound petty, but I can’t stand it when people put photoshop a meth pipe in my mouth. A crack pipe doesn’t have that little bowl at the end. This is why we can’t trust AI. Please make the appropriate edit. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
New statement from Scott Pelley:
“Last month, 60 Minutes lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos.
For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them. Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.
At 60 Minutes, we have fought harder than anyone knows to save the program that became an American icon. We owed that to our millions of viewers. I am deeply moved by the thousands of wishes we have received to “keep up the good fight.” Most of the men and women of CBS News are still in that fight. But now the collapse of values at the top has become untenable. The leadership of 60 Minutes is no longer recognizable. The principles I hold dear are gone, and so I must leave as well.”
I’m flattered that CPC MPs Lawton, Gunn, Majumdar, and Reid are visiting Carleton. I don’t know what they think they’re accomplishing, but I thank them for their tourism. I hope they have a chance to enjoy Carleton’s delicious apple crumble, and take some back to their ridings.
Pierre Poilievre: "I would encourage Liberals to stop the divisive rhetoric and work on uniting Canadians. I know the Liberal Party survives and thrives on divide and conquer politics."
