Peter Menzies- As if being booed by the public isn’t enough, reporters have taken to heckling each other at news conferences
It used to be a not in front of the children sort of argument. But in this election campaign, the scrap, the tea pot and the flying flatware all spilled into the front yard for all in the neighbourhood to see.
Blacklock’s- Vax Injury Fund Over Budget

Guys. This is absolutely 🤌 😘. I walked behind the Carney rally in Edmonton, to show you how gross this brand new neighborhood is. Mayor Amarjeet Sohi keeps up his Lib campaign office like he does the whole of Edmonton. Disgusting. Zero sense of civic pride. pic.twitter.com/W2Ww4mC4iX
