GC Strategies Under the Microscope - Committee Tightens Noose In the ongoing saga that is the OGGO - Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates - meeting number 103 has unveiled a scene so absurd, it would be comical if the stakes weren't so high. Here we are, witnessing the relentless pursuit of truth as the Conservative and NDP forces join hands in a rare display of unity, demanding accountability from GC Strategies' Kristian Firth and Darren Anthony. And what's their defense? Mental health concerns. Well, join the club, because I, too, am mentally fatigued—fatigued from watching these two navigate through a swamp of taxpayer dollars, pocketing $20 million for an IT project that saw no actual IT work from their end, only subcontracting and skimming off the top. And in the midst of this debacle, the Liberals, ever so concerned about the RCMP investigation, are raising alarms over the Conservatives' access to investigative reports by the CBSA. But let's get something straight: these reports, allegedly provided by the defense—Cameron McDonald and Antonio Utano—outline nothing but the ‘alleged’ facts already within the defense's purview. How, then, does this transparency compromise the investigation? It doesn't. It simply exposes the Liberals' desperation to stall, to muddy the waters in a feeble attempt to obscure their own failings. The Liberal strategy, as personified by Irek Kusmierczyk's filibustering at the committee, is as transparent as it is futile. To run out the clock, to delay the inevitable, is their game. And accountability? Ethics? These words seem foreign to them, uttered without understanding or sincerity. The irony of Kusmierczyk's repeated use of these terms like ‘accountability,’ despite a glaring inability to embody them, would be laughable if it weren't so tragic. This, my fellow Canadians, is the crux of the issue: a tangled web of evasion, excuses, and a glaring lack of transparency. As we continue to navigate this scandal, one thing remains clear – the Canadian public deserves answers. The time for stalling is over, the time for the truth is now.
@DanKnightMMA Irek is a joke. Bye bye at the election
@DanKnightMMA @CTVNews is attempting to frame this as contract management irregularities, the inference being that some bureaucrat made a mistake, instead of calling it what it is, political corruption.
@DanKnightMMA Are we betting that this ends up like WE? Culminating in an election to shut down the committee and investigation? Or will they tell @theJagmeetSingh he isn’t getting his PharmaCare in the hopes that he forces a non confidence vote which will have the same result?
@DanKnightMMA They should NOT be permitted to filibuster constantly. It angers me so much that the people we employ show such disrespect for the taxpayer.
@DanKnightMMA I am wait for honest answers from this government that campaigned on transparency
@DanKnightMMA It amazes me that Trudeau and his gang of Liberal con artists have not been stripped of power!!!! Thanks @theJagmeetSingh your children will grow up and find out what a greedy father they have. Willing to sell out Canadians. Stop propping Trudeau up!
@DanKnightMMA ArriveScam be damned. The fact that a company pops up out of nowhere right as JT is elected, then becomes a preferred supplier overnight, and accumulates $250 million in contracts is reason enough for an investigation.
@DanKnightMMA Dan can’t wait for his Digital ID, though.

@DanKnightMMA The only reason to obstruct justice here would be to protect someone at the top of liberal party why wouldn't the Liberal MP's not want justice for the Canadian Taxpayer.
@DanKnightMMA Is there a way to force them to pay taxpayers back?
