I just tuned in to CPAC to see what was happening with the budget vote only to see members of Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party of Canada pretending to have technical difficulties:

As you can see from the title image for this post it looks like Garnet Genuis was voting from inside, I don’t know, maybe a storage closet?
It went on further:

That led to the LPC Government Whip, Steve MacKinnon, calling out the CPC and their childish antics:
Then NDP MP Peter Julian to rise on a point on the CPC BS:
This isn’t the first time the Cons pulled this childish stunt.
They did so last Friday, and LPC MP Mark Gerretsen posted this edit of it:
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to filibustering in the 21st century.
Conservative after Conservative used every virtual delay tactic possible today to prevent the House from debating the Budget.

I want to add that Conservatives are still at it.
I just snapped this pic of Viersen with other CPC MPs in the background.
There’s filibustering, and then there’s this childish bullshit.
This is Pierre Poilievre’s Con Party of Canada.
Unserious. Unfit. Unqualified.
