Nice to see so many young volunteers for the Liberals. Your energy, enthusiasm and positive political activism are very much appreciated by all generations across Canada.

I can't stand the Conservatives, but who had the great idea to plant fake "scandalous" buttons at a Conservative event? That ridiculous behaviour has no place in the Liberal party and the person who dreamed this up should be fired.
Mark Carney has apologised and those involved have been reassigned.
It should've never happened in the first place. Reassigned isn't good enough. Giving the Cons and PP any ammo is worth getting the boot.
Your frustration is understandable. It was a dumb prank that backfired. However, it wasn't a crime as far as I know. It's now a lesson that the pranksters and other amateurs won't forget. Meanwhile, CPC supporters/staff are vandalizing or removing Liberal signs. That is a crime.
That he doesn't throw people under the bus as a knee-jerk reaction makes me appreciate him more. I am so tired of knee-jerk reactions.
Throwing the immature pranksters under the bus would have assigned too much importance to what was just a foolish incident that caused no real harm. I think PM Carney made the right call.
This wasn't a small mistake someone made. This was planned and executed by someone in the Liberal party and it's disgusting. Letting someone go who thinks this behaviour is ok wouldn't be a knee-jerk reaction, it would be completely justifiable.
It was a couple of young people who did something stupid. Planting some buttons is old hat. It is just laying out bait and no one took the bait.
It doesn't matter how old they are. It also doesn't matter that nobody took the bait because at the end of the day it tarnishes the party and gives PP something else to whine about.
Perfection is the enemy of the good.
Their actions don't have to be perfect. But they weren't even good, they were idiotic.
I'm talking about his response. You want a stronger response and I personally find it refreshing.
I’m still waiting for my lawn sign. Requested online and when phoned, requested again. Convinced a neighbour to consider voting strategically. NDP candidate has strong background. Want to keep Dan Vandal are Liberal, let’s get Ginette’s name out there. ginettelavack.liberal.ca
