Okay, I thought you were linking the meeting in the context of the tweet, not in the context of the date the motion ultimately passed.

If anything attempting to show context to the Liberal MP makes him look worse. Why even going to go through the trouble of perusing through a multi hour clip for a transcript to excuse his fiction claim, which doesn't make him look better.

I'm not trying to make the Liberal MP look better, I'm trying to give the full context of a 34-second tweet that has been edited to make a point that... I might not go as far as to say it's a "lie", but it's certainly an exaggeration and misconstruing of what the Liberal MP was saying.
The Liberal MP was not saying "the AG's report is fiction", he was saying "saying the ArriveCan app was only supposed to cost $80k and now it's $60M" is fiction. Because the $80k number does not include the full costs of the program and is an entirely irrelevant point of comparison.
Scheer's motion went on to chastise the two guys from GC Strategies for refusing to appear before the committee, but the Bloc MP who spoke after (Vignola) was quick to point out that the one of them (Firth)
did appear before them last November.
Twice.
It's all bull####-peddling at this point, which, again, is why I'm not keen to follow the news cycle about this crap at this time.

Yet you pass yourself as non-partisan? You solely come to the defense of Liberals all the time. Why even try to correct on this as you just did?

I've complained about the Liberal government many times, I think a lot of what they've done in the last nine years is hot trash. I've repeatedly said I've never voted for them before and don't intend to now. The problem here seems to be that you think anything less than rabid, frothing-at-the-mouth vitriol directed at them, and me pointing out that the Conservative opposition are also a bunch of lying pieces of ####, means I'm endorsing the Liberals.
