@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ @AndrewScheer how conveniently you forgot your party's out-of-control spending. Canadians who were starving + struggling to survive during the 2008 economic crisis haven't forgot. If any Canadian has forgotten it is our duty + pleasure, as Canadians, to remind them. #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ In 2012 while Canadians were maxing out food banks, struggling + barely able to afford food, Conservatives gave $826,000 to Cardinal Meat Specialists Ltd., to help produce “a higher quality sausage that is more resistant to splitting or bursting while cooking.” #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ In 2015 while closing several #Veterans' Affairs offices nationwide, Conservatives chose to make an expensive fashion statement by returning to WWII-era ranks + insignia, forcing struggling taxpayers to buy $4.5MILLION worth of new dress uniforms for soldiers + navy

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ Conservatives ran *advertisements* to promote a nonexistent 'Economic Action Plan' during expensive primetime viewing slots like playoffs + the Oscars, for $5.2MILLION. Cons big Economic Action Plan was to stupidly invest all $ in o&g while denying #ClimateChange. #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ During that same time, while Canadians were losing their homes due to 2008's ensuing economic instability, the fucking Conservative Party spent another $24 MILLION on *advertisements* touting Canada-U.S. relations to increase support for the #KXL #pipeline. #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ Former Conservative MP Peter MacKay posed for a photo shoot in a fake F-35 fighter jet which was brought in from Texas. The staged photo op cost hardworking Canadian taxpayers $47 000 in 2010 while we struggled just to survive the crunch of 2008's economic crisis. #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ In 2013, during defence budget cuts, “to ensure best value for taxpayers,” Conservatives spent $14 000 to conduct a survey asking Canadians whether superheroes could fly, leap over skyscrapers, see through walls, become invisible and hear whispers from miles away. #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ Harper’s 2011 Labour Day weekend trip cost us $45 000 so he could take his daughter + 2 guests to Manhattan. This included pricey NY Yankees tickets + a Broadway show on taxpayers dime. It cost $34 633 to use the #ChallengerJet + staff expensed another $11 000. #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ Conservatives spent a record $1.1 billion hosting the 2010 G8/G20 events, including $160 million in hospitality, food, security + infrastructure bills.

@AndrewScheer, was that Conservative's idea of "making life more affordable for Canadians struggling to get by"? #cdnpoli

@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ Conservatives built a $2MILLION fake fucking lake! You did this while slashing funding to necessary social supports + services, closing veterans' offices + choking off eligibility for unemployment insurance (the premiums of which are automatically deducted from paychecks!).
10/10
@AndrewScheer @CPC_HQ In closing, @AndrewScheer and @CPC_HQ, I'd like to say fuck your nonexistent ability to "make life more affordable for Canadians struggling to get by". Fuck your Party's delusions that hardworking Canadian taxpayers can afford the opulent lifestyle you think you are entitled to.
