Liberal MP threatens National Post editor by saying feds fund her salary
Liberal MP Taleeb Noormohamed (Vancouver Granville, BC) has told National Post Comment senior editor Terry Newman to stop criticizing the Canadian government.
This is because the Canadian government has been providing the National Post with media subsidies to keep it operating.
“Your paper wouldn't be in business were it not for the subsidies that the government that you hate put in place — the same subsidies your [Donald] Trump-adjacent foreign hedge fund owners gladly take to pay your salary,” tweeted Noormohamed.

Noormohamed was commenting on Newman saying the Liberals and Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Minister Marc Miller have harmed Canada since coming to power.
“Incredible how much damage a party and minister can do to a country in nine years,” said Newman.

Quillette associate editor Jonathan Kay joked about Noormohamed doing a good job.
“Where’s her gratitude for all that Liberal cash, right?” said Kay.
“Oh and maybe remind the lady that you know people who can audit her taxes.”
Good job, Taleeb
Where’s her gratitude for all that Liberal cash, right ?

Zayouna Law Firm lawyer Ryan O’Connor said Noormohamed was threatening Newman for criticizing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
“Liberal MP to media: our government pays your salaries, so shut up and stop criticizing the Prime Minister,” said O’Connor.

Trudeau said in February he is not trying to control the media with the various subsidies he has established.

To try to assist the media, Trudeau created a $595 million media bailout for various publications, provides the CBC with an additional $1.3 billion per year, and has spent money on subsidies for television stations.
“We’re trying to support journalism in this country and across this country, but no government can do it alone,” he said.

Wow!!!!! she’s pissed!! we all should be..
One really pissed-off CANADIAN citizen!!!
It appears that this Senator hit a sour chord with this young lady!!
Jeff Smith, a Senator from Quebec, calls senior citizens the "Greediest Generation" as he compared , Old Age Security to "a Milk Cow with over a million teats".
Here's a response in a letter from Patty Johnstone in Ontario ..
I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is!
"Hey Jeff, let's get a few things straight!!
1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole (tit) for FIFTY YEARS.
2. I have been paying CPP & OAS for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63). Being a Canadian citizen for over 20 years & paying my taxes, I am eligible at 65 to apply for Old Age Security - OAS (paid for through my taxes).
3. My Canada Pension payments, and those of millions of other Canadians, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid...
