Some of the Government’s behaviour at #LACM this morning was abysmal and frankly embarrassing. Let the public and other members speak. Majority Government = Autocracy I guess? #nspoli@nsgov@nspc
Conservatives go on and on about needing more civics in school. I agree, since they can’t seem to tell the difference between a coalition and confidence and supply 🤦♂️ #cdnpoli#nspoli
