Today, I filed a Law Society conduct complaint against Alberta’s Justice Minister and lawyer Matthew Lindsay. Both, in my opinion, engaged in criminal obstruction of justice on the private surgery contracting file. Shortly, I will lay information with the RCMP. #ableg

I just met with Mohsen Mahdawi where he’s being held in Vermont. He was detained when he showed up for his citizenship interview. He should be released so he can become a citizen.

After demanding an election for the past two years, now a week away, piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre still hasn’t released a costed platform? The reason, of course, is he and Jenni Byrne don’t want the media, experts or voters any reasonable time to examine it and pick it apart. Vote wisely, 🇨🇦Canada

Boasberg says he doesn't have the power to issue a TRO given this would be an almost identical order to the one SCOTUS vacated. ACLU still has petitions pending before the 5th Circuit, the Northern District of TX, and SCOTUS.
