YEGmann Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) It was reported as more than speculation: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-notebook/ejections-at-campaign-rallies-a-staff-issue-harper-says/article1971383/ In your link - "Ms. Aslam told the London Free Press. He said … " All this horror story is presented from one source - the young girl. By the way, in the very first news about this incident, CBC wrote that the girl said something like "I do not know why they removed me. My only idea is I have a picture with Michael Ignatieff on the Facebook. Maybe because of that..." Later reports put the Facebook passage in the mouth of a mythical RCMP officer.

YEGmann Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Yes I do. Her name is Awish Aslam. If you look at her Facebook profile, you can see her pictuers with Iggy and Layton. She probably was trying to get one with Harper to add to her collection. No you do not. You do not have any evidence the girl was removed because of the pictures. You even do not have evidence RCMP officer removed her. Quote

I have the same suspicions. When I read that it was her own statements that she was removed and told it was because she had "Liberal connections (or something to that effect), the first thing that occurred to me was - why should we believe this girl? I'm already starting to suspect she's just another loser trying to make a name for herself by inventing a controversy. Maybe she's just going after her fifteen minutes of fame in an underhanded way. It certainly wouldn't be the first time. Quote My blog - bobinisrael.blogspot.com - I am writing on it, again!

Come on, you can do better than that. Tell us more about how bad a person you think she must be.

Scotty Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Come on, you can do better than that. Tell us more about how bad a person you think she must be. She's wearing a black towel on her head! That makes her a religious fanatic! Quote It is an inverted moral calculus that tries to persuade the world to demonize one state that tries its civilized best to abide in a difficult time and place, and rides merrily by the examples and practices of dozens of states and leaderships that drop into brutality every day without a twinge of regret or a whisper of condemnation. - Rex Murphy

Bob Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) Come on, you can do better than that. Tell us more about how bad a person you think she must be. Why is that possibility so hard to fathom? People hustling controversy for personal gain is hardly uncommon. We've already got a discrepancy in the events, with her originally saying she didn't know why she wasn't permitted to attend, and then she stated that the RCMP removed her claiming that the reason was because of "Liberal connections", apparently because of her Facebook profile photo.

I thought Harper was primarily "targetting" those wearing a crucifix? http://kairoscanada.org/en/ But I guess students and veterans make equally good "targets" for a megalomaniac dictator wannabe like Harper, eh...

Harry Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 There is no confusion. Awish Aslam was tossed from a Harper rally. After several days of the Conservatives going off message Harper apologized. It has been so damaging to Harper's campaign that now he has even agreed to meet with her. Quote
Saipan Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Come on, you can do better than that. Yes, but she can't. Quote

When will Chretien meet with students he pepper sprayed? When will he apologize instead making jokes about the incident? Quote
Melanie_ Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 After several days of the Conservatives going off message Harper apologized. Yes, but the apology only comes into effect if the budget is balanced in 2014!!

GWiz Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 When will Chretien meet with students he pepper sprayed? When will he apologize instead making jokes about the incident?

YEGmann Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 But I guess students and veterans make equally good "targets" for a megalomaniac dictator wannabe like Harper, eh... What veterans? Do you mean a carbon copy incident in Halifax? Liberal spin? Quote
GWiz Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 What veterans? Do you mean a carbon copy incident in Halifax? Liberal spin? Harper's washed up and dried out on this one...

YEGmann Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Harper's washed up and dried out on this one... No spin cycle required... So, I guess you admit that there were no veterans kicked out of Harper's press conference. Quote

The Harper campaign bubble: Students, vets tossed or barred from rallies Did you read your own link? It says no veteran was barred from the rally. However I agree, it is Harper's problem.

GWiz Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Oh boo hoo, the Liberal media... boohoo. If only that were true, which it very clearly isn't (Harper calls the shots as to what issue, like "coalition", the media covers) Harper would still be seen for what he is, a dictatorial control freak... Globe and Mail and National Post as "Liberal" media? Quote There are none so blind, deaf and dumb as those that fail to recognize, understand, and promote TRUTH...- GWiz
