Ottawa deserves better.

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

Ottawa deserves better than @_MarkSutcliffe and @AlexLawsonOtt is it.

@bpellerin Somebody better tell council!

Who do you think City Hall is listening to?

#CityHall #LocalGovernment #GovernmentAccountability #Ottawa

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

Alex is proposing the strongest anti-corruption laws in Canada. @_MarkSutcliffe is defending favours for his lobbyist friends.

[Alex Lawson @AlexLawsonOtt]

If you help get someone elected, you shouldn’t get to profit lobbying them.

If you donated to a campaign, worked to get someone elected, you can’t come asking for favours for profit.

This is about making sure City Hall works for the public interest, not special interests.

Families should be able to enjoy Ottawa’s parks without feeling unsafe.

Good policy means balancing freedom, responsibility, and proper enforcement, not ignoring problems until they grow worse!

@matgravel hi Matt, can you point me to the $20 pasta on the menu at Fratelli’s?

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

In fact, Alex posted the complaint AND all the emails online so people can judge for themselves.

Is that how someone makes a “spurious” accusation?

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

If you see wrongdoing should you blow the whistle? @AlexLawsonOtt did when he saw what looks like improper lobbying in @_MarkSutcliffe’s office.

The firm responsible responded with outrage and legal threats.

Interesting strategy…

Access to information is a powerful tool. The mayor's office knows Jennifer Stewart isn't registered to lobby for Syntax clients. But they're still picking up the phone.

I've released 100 pages of emails between the mayor's office and Syntax on my website:

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

Doesn’t look good for @_MarkSutcliffe and team!

[Alex Lawson @AlexLawsonOtt]

Let's talk about integrity.

[Alex Lawson @AlexLawsonOtt]

Near misses matter too. Ottawa needs real traffic safety measures before accidents happen.

People have been asking for safer intersections for years.

The city shouldn’t wait for someone to get hurt before taking action. #ottawa #ottpoli

[Alex Lawson @AlexLawsonOtt]

Think $10,000,000 for 1,200 bikes is a good deal? Let's do the math. #ottawa #ottpoli

@mirgray @EvanHPotter @pollingcanada Tell that to Sutcliffe’s pollster, @DavidColetto.

@StewartGreen81 @AlexLawsonOtt …

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

@mirgray @bpellerin 1) He’s my brother through blood, not marriage.
2) I have thoughts and opinions too.
3) I am a volunteer.

But otherwise your opinion is noted.

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

After promising “safer, affordable, reliable” and accomplishing the opposite, @_MarkSutcliffe is doing what he does best.

In a single sentence he blames other “toxic and dysfunctional” people and then claims credit for getting them to work together.

Bold strategy…

[Quito Maggi @pollingcanada]

I assumed this was an honest mistake made by @Charlie_Senack and wrote the @Lookout editors earlier

Then I realized the City of #Ottawa & OC Transpo advertise heavily in their newsletters, so they've refused the corrections

Every man has to eat I suppose

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

We kept the receipts. @Charlie_Senack says he asked for comments on things he just never asked about.

Is this honest independent journalism? Or a biased smear job from an ideological opponent to a blue collar worker entering politics because the city needs help?

[Alex Lawson @AlexLawsonOtt]

I sure said a lot for this biased journalist to claim I made no comment. Does this seem right to you?

[Emrys Graefe @EmrysGraefe]

Couple of factually false items in @Charlie_Senack’s “article” this morning…

[Alex Lawson @AlexLawsonOtt]

You know you’re a threat to the establishment when biased media starts attacking.
