- With tricks this good, you need to be where folks can see you … on TV! #lastlinebeforebed #
- Vic Toews's contention that we accept warrantless violations of our policy or we're "with the child pornographers" is fear-mongering shite. #
- It was bullshit when the US insisted "you're with us or you're w/ the terrorists" and it's bullshit now. Fear-mongering at its most cowardly #
- How about we let the police warrantlessly open our postal mail too, because child pornographers use the mail too! What do you have to hide? #
- Sigh. *Privacy. Not policy. Argh. So many RTs. #
- Vic Toews's contention that we accept warrantless violations of our privacy or we're "with the child pornographers" is fear-mongering shite. #
- MT @bcbusiness: YVR "vigilantes" use bait bikes to catch bike thieves in new web series, via @OpenFileVAN: http://t.co/350lwz2B #bikeyvr #
- CPC's CBC budget cuts? Option 1: Sell it off RT @stevecbc: Missed the CBC memo on this one… #starspangledbanter http://t.co/IommafTR #
- Wait, C30 is actually called the "Protecting Children from Internet Predators Act"!? Unholy CPC obfuscation Batman! #cdnpoli #
- A fake #heart by my true #heart #febphotoaday http://t.co/QVVgJF8f #
- OMG. Hopped up on too much Valentines Day chocolate. http://t.co/tYLRXxxS #
- The 3 yr old countered "I'll give you 5 bucks!" when I said no more TV. Damn pigeon. #dontletthepigeonwatchtv @The_Pigeon #
- There are many things that highlight the desperate need for a global filter built right into @twitter. #pinterest is one of those things. #
- I, of all people, know that you can't be everything for everyone, but I'd love to mute certain things to make it seem like some of you are. #
- MT @vancouver_mom: VancouverMom.ca Podcast: Jessie van Rijn (@jessierelephant) of Carousel Theatre (@carouseltheatre) http://t.co/3J4dq8lh #
- Wow, strong revocation of endorsement: RT @CityCaucus: @TheProvince Editorial: Tories weren't elected to spy on us http://t.co/pLr69h63 #C30 #
- I enabled the 'Me-Fee-Free' Bonus on Empire Avenue. #SMRocketFuel #EAv http://t.co/hTvUxiGJ via @AddThis #
- That moment where you realized you just repartitioned and reformatted the wrong disk. Yeah, that one. :headdesk: #fail #
- Fortunately, the disk I nuked was just my "home backup at work" drive. Unfortunately it takes a _long time_ to rsync 300 GB over the net. #
- Micro #phone #febphotoaday http://t.co/fUglZ2az #
- C-30 allows for warrantless matching of IPs to accounts. Is *real* driver entertainment industry lobby, not anti-kiddie porn? #cdnpoli #
- Because the CRIA and ilk have been pushing for IP-to-account info legislation for years, and C-30 gives it to them! #cdnpoli #
- Dear @toewsvic Kid #2 (you already know his name) is off the wall this morning. Please let his preschool know. #TellVicEverything #
- Dear @toewsvic I swear it was hot young cats I was looking at. I stand with the felinophiles. #TellVicEverything #cdnpoli #
- The minister can unilaterally decide that all refugee claims from any country are bogus? This government is out of control. #cdnpoli #
- To recap: Our Conservative gov't strips us of rights, invades our privacy, supports torture, and rejects basic human rights. #cdnpoli #
- Awesome! Shafted by @cityofvancouver's DPCC reorg of preschool classes means after 3 yrs there, suddenly Q doesn't have a preschool spot. #
- And we didn't find out until today! And b/c we had priority, didn't expect need to find another preschool! Whose deadlines have all passed! #
- So, Douglas Park Community Centre administrators who both communicated poorly and lied about the process: screw you. #
- Huh. Ex-Expo catcher Gary Carter died. As a young catcher in the early-80s, Carter was THE GUY you looked up to. #
- Just ask @ToewsVic! RT @findchico: Wonder how much his severance will be? RT @News1130radio Chris Olsen no longer on Christy Clark's side #
- I see some *weird* tweets sometimes. MT @Seanfunk: I am on the ferry desperately looking for a traffic cone and some rags #tweetsfromthecone #
- Quinn's Quizz caller refers to host as "Steve". Somehow finds questions impossible to answer. Wins the Ezra Levant book anyway. #otc #
- And with that, @cbcstephenquinn loses any chance of running for the #CPC Crazy right-wing, gun-wielding, religious … what now? #otc #qq #
- This is why we like @CBCStephenQuinn's interviews: Q: Why does criminal negl. causing death get cond. sentence but rioter gets 17 mo jail?? #
- I'm sure many people are asking the same thing. I don't buy the defense of the sentencing. There needs to be consistency across all crimes! #
- Seriously? http://t.co/WBzLURJG via @coffeefilter #
- What nonsense will the Conservative government serve up to us *tomorrow*? #cdnpoli #
- .@unambig Well after C-30 and C-31, I figure they must have a doozie to bury at 4pm on a Friday afternoon #cdnpoli #
- It's 10 pm and we're all in bed, @toewsvic. But, you knew that already, right? #TellVicEverything #
- Classy. RT @davidakin: Baird again accuses NDP of being behind Vikileak, says NDP stands for "No Decency Party" #qp #
- You know, that's what I like about our parliament. It allows otherwise civil adults to become degenerate toddlers w/o being held accountable #
- Where else can you go to work, make stuff up and call people names without repercussions? Well, other than Fox News and Sun News. #
- If you just don't get why people are upset about the "Protecting Kids from Online Predators Act" read THIS: http://t.co/sQ0fCWnj #cdnpoli #
- So the *minister* can appoint anyone, w/o judicial oversight, power to enter any telecom + examine, open, search *anything* #c30 #cdnpoli #
- The *minister* can therefore appoint his own "telecom cops" with sweeping powers w/o any *suggestion* of judicial oversight. #cdnpoli #c30 #
- These telecom cops do *not* require warrants. Astonishing. #
- I maintain this offensive bill is driven by the "entertainment" industry and not an altruistic hunt for paedophiles. #c30 #cdnpoli #
- Sitting in Aidan's piano lesson. This is seriously awesome. I wish I had piano lessons as a kid. #
- Bill C-30 should be renamed the ASL? Law #cdnpoli #
- .@604Heather Oooh, I feel a meme coming on #FailedStephenQuinnSignOffLines @CBCStephenQuinn #
- Be good, stay safe, don't run me over at Costco #FailedStephenQuinnSignOffLines @CBCStephenQuinn #
- Remember: It's all fun and games until the off-leash dog pees on smokers at the playground #FailedStephenQuinnSignOffLines @CBCStephenQuinn #
- The weekend's here: two jazz-free days! #FailedStephenQuinnSignOffLines @CBCStephenQuinn #
- #Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana. #febphotoaday http://t.co/qpxXnfSn #
- Good lord. If your apology begins w/ "If…" then stop right there. You don't mean it. I'm looking at you, @toewsvic #cdnpoli #
- Most flabbergasting, damning tweet *ever*: RT @cbcalerts: Toews surprised by content of online surveillance bill. #cdnpoli #
- How can you be a complete + utter jackass defending a horrible bill, then a week later, declare you're surprised by its content!? #cdnpoli #
- If you're surprised by the content of your *own bill*, you do not deserve to represent *anyone* in our Parliament #cdnpol #tellviceverything #
- So, when Toews didn't understand why ppl were upset by C-30, it was because HE HADN'T READ IT!? #cdnpoli #
- Who writes these bill that cabinet ministers table in Parliament without even reading? Who is ACCOUNTABLE for this shite? #cdnpoli #c30 #
- Sleet. Ugh. #wxyvr #
- Another typically softball interview from Soloman. Section 17? Tell Toews to look at Section 34. What's that? That's the section that says.. #
- …"The inspector may…examine any document, information or thing found in the place and open or cause to be opened any container or thing" #
- Those are inspectors appointed by the Minister, and the place is any ISP. Oh, and they don't need warrants. #
- Whew, busy day. Pleased to report @carouseltheatre's Aesop's Fables was great and thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family! #
- Dessert thing in the oven for tomorrow's #sweetspot12 and the second Sherlock series on the tube. Oh, the life. #
- #drink #febphotoaday http://t.co/QeYeCL0e #
- .@aidanfloyd and @quinlanfloyd review @carouseltheatre's "Aesop's Fables": http://t.co/Fh4052KR #
- 3.5 hrs of video editing to get 3.5 minutes of final video. Oh well. #
