Default Ongoing YYCCC (Chu + Farkas) Transgressions Threat

I didn't see anything generic for this, but now with the buffoonery doubled in the Calgary City Council, maybe it is time for a YYCCC transgressions thread.


First is the latest news with the usual culprits, Chu and Farkas, attempting to pass off inaccuracies they gleaned off of social media as facts, and then acting defensive about it.

On Thursday, during a Transportation and Transit Committee meeting, there was a spat between councillors Evan Woolley and Sean Chu. Woolley criticized Chu about a statistic over the number of cyclists in the city, saying that Chu knowingly used a false number.
Chu then criticized Woolley for taking a personal shot at him, at which point Keating — the committee chair — intervened and said they do need to be more vocal about misinformation.

Earlier in the week, Keating used the same two words during a committee meeting when Ward 11’s Jeromy Farkas discussed the size of protests when federal Finance Minister Bill Morneau visited the city.
Farkas told reporters he received that information from social media.
