Since the 1940's

Then, as USSR 1.0

Anyone not aware of who Storm 1516 is likely would brush this off, this group is a major player in disinformation. Its their entire job, these are the people who started the whole Kamala Harris hit and run story, and the story on mail in ballot fraud, not to mention multiple deep fakes targeting ukraine. This isnt some guy in his mother basement. Its a unit of Russian Military intelligence

For those who don't trust Canadian or European institutions worried about Russia, even the U.S. considers Storm 1516 a problem: an excerpt:

So as it happens Mr. Sandhu has an extensive history with David Parker, founder of the Centurion Project.

UCP staffer appears to have been more than just 'observing' the doxxing of Jason Kenney​

Smith now admits multiple staffers were on the call, but claims it was regular oversight. Yet none of them raised a red flag of every one on the call seeing Jason Kenny's personal information (Reportedly Rachel Notley's too). In the past, this kind of scandal has brought down governments.

All these UCP staffers in attendance, yet claimed earlier that it's somehow the ANDP's job/fault for not reporting it to her before going to Elections Alberta and the RCMP?

Meanwhile, no excuses now.

No referendum required: Pro-Canada petition can be voted on by Alberta MLAs, committee hears

Alberta officials told MLAs overseeing the anti-separation petition that the decision to hold a referendum is up to them.

Though there seems to be a belief that the UCP really will use it as a referendum vote, with the validity of the separatist petition signatures now being a massive question mark. Letting MLA's dodge having to make any separatist leanings public.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Lukaszuk said he is convinced the UCP government will put the question to a referendum, despite him explicitly saying he wants it to be voted on in the legislature.

“It is just unfortunate that our premier, our government and duly elected MLAs just don’t have the fortitude — frankly, don’t have the guts to stand up in the chamber in the legislature and declare whether they’re separatists or not,” Lukaszuk said.

With the level of stink rising per day, I think Smith might use this as the off ramp.

Before she got caught with the UCP hands in the cookie jar, I would have said the opposite.

There was a fair point made on The Line last week- we should absolutely expect that the government would have someone dialed in to a call like that that’s opened up to the public and at least half paying attention. It would be negligent of the government not to sign in and see what such an impactful movement is saying to the public. So, the bare fact of party staffers having been on the call doesn’t bother me… But, it’s absolutely in play for assessing who knew what, when, and it should have been obvious that there was a personal information problem, and that should have been communicated up the chain immediately. The government cannot plausibly claim ignorance, or that it was someone else’s fault for not flagging it sooner.

1 staffer sure, but multiple? Seems a little much
