        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          I was told we’d have flying cars. Clearly I misunderstood.

            Ha… love the news reports of terrorism, bomb, and the car coming from the Canadian side. All incorrect. Honestly sounds like either suicide or drunk from the casino.

            I was there in 2019. I suppose a few drinks might make me think I could jump the river too.

                A fiery crash occurring on a bridge connecting Canada and the United States on Wednesday was initially and erroneously reported as a terrorist attack. In actuality, the driver of the vehicle was a 56-year-old man who had traveled to Ottawa to attend a KISS concert.

                The man, whose identity has not yet been revealed, was driving with his wife in a Bentley. The driver and the passenger died in the crash, and a Customs and Border Protection officer suffered minor injuries.bolded text

                        Meh. Regardless of the clip, Monsieur P.P. had a bad day today on this and another issue.

                        He doesn’t impress me any more than the current lightweight featherweight PM we have who doesn’t impress me at all.

                          @Renauda He’s fast with his retorts, I’ll give him that. I saw him do something similar while munching an apple a couple of weeks ago. The senior Trudeau would’ve needed fewer words. His son merely babbles,

                            Yeah, I posted that.

                            "Some people say that..."

                              @George-K said in FBI investigating explosion at US-Canadian border:

                              tl;dw "Please quote me accurately."

                              As it turns out, it would seem that Monsueur P. P.’s accuracy is also just tad suspect:

                              On Thursday, Poilievre only pointed to CTV when talking about the "media reports" to which he was referring. But it appears Poilievre asked his question in the House before CTV's reporting was published.

                              The timestamp on the article indicates that it was published at 2:39 p.m. ET on Wednesday. Subsequent tweets from the article's author and CTV itself were published at 2:40 p.m. and 2:50 p.m. respectively. Poilievre asked his question at 2:25 p.m.

                              A number of American news outlets had begun reporting the incident as a terrorist attack before CTV's article was published. A Fox News reporter tweeted that the explosion was a terrorist attack just before 2 p.m. on Wednesday.

                              full report:

                              https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7038425

                              Frankly, I think Monsieur P.P. handled the reporter’s question rather poorly.

                                Maybe alcohol or other substances were not involved after all.
