And Conservatives across Canada went batshit.Le système de santé public et universel du Canada est l’une de nos plus grandes forces. L’an dernier, en pleine pandémie, Erin O’Toole s’est fait demander s’il envisagerait la privatisation du système de santé. Il a répondu oui sans hésiter! pic.twitter.com/dcCwfaguLr

Then @gill_godwin sniffed out some relationships - between the public relations professional who was originally outraged that Freeland had chopped up her O'Toole "interview" where he made the truncated remarks about Canadian healthcare, and her friendship with Twitter's public policy manager who used to be a parliamentary assistant to Harper. So maybe this helps to explain why Twitter was ON IT!!!It it me, or did twitter just start giving a shit about edited clips just because of Chrystia Freeland?

We all know that @Jack's virtue is like. He let trump and his merry band of nazis roam free for years.
Ms. Harrison has an acquaintance in Conservative circles.

This would be Michelle Austin who is currently Head of Public Policy for Twitter in Canada.
This connection can't be ignored if we are to have a fair election. pic.twitter.com/9Mgca4UTrp
Dean makes an interesting point about the larger issues here:So this begs the question, if the complainer has an acquaintance who is Head of Twitter Policy in Canada, was there an inside track to flagging @cafreeland for a tweet ?

I think Canada deserves answers on this. ASAP#cdnpoli #cdnmedia
Trudeau has Freeland's back:If there was a misstatement in Chrystia Freeland’s tweet it’s this:

The tweet claimed O’Toole wanted to privatize the system, when what he said was he would allow privatization within the system, which is different, but eventually the same. #cdnpoli

Sounds good to me:Did the #Liberals roll the dice and come up snake eyes? This #Election2021 'win a majority' may be a gamble they lose. My prediction at this point: Liberals with reduced seat minority, #NDP up a couple seats, #CPC steady where they were before.

Kicking out military members who refuse to get the COVID19 vaccine would probably also eliminate the vast majority of the Proud Boys, white supremacists, and Neo-Nazis who have infested the military. So, a win-win!

I opposed Twitter doing this stuff to Trump, I oppose doing this to Freeland, and I & folks like Jimmy Doore and Nikos warned folks that it would blow up in the let's face, not the the Libs are the left, but my point still stands.
And doubling down on this video is a huge mistake, it'll just keep this issue in the media and make this thing worse for you.
To get out of a tail spin one has to stop panicking and think clearly, but that clearly isn't happening.
Hmmm - interesting point. Myself, I think these platforms have to exercise more control over what is being posted, just like publishers are responsible for the Letters to the Editor that get printed in their newspapers. But I agree its a difficult task to undertake and the Libs have to get onto their own game instead of reacting to what the Cons are doing.
