Heather Leung is the Con candidate in the B.C. riding of Burnaby-North Seymour, and a bit of a mystery woman.
One who hasn't granted the media an interview since she was nominated in May.
So most people wouldn't have known anything about her, if she hadn't made a terrible mistake.
And doctored a Rick Mercer message to young people by adding the words "vote Conservative."
Which needless to say Mercer didn't find amusing.
Rick Mercer is calling out the Conservative candidate in Burnaby North-Seymour for sharing a doctored quote from the TV personality on social media.
The funnyman, who wasn’t amused to have his face and words turned into a fake political endorsement, appealed to Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer to put a stop to it. “Dear @AndrewScheer & good folks at @Cpc_hq — Your candidate in Burnaby North-Seymour is distributing a meme on social media with my face and the words “Vote Conservative” indicating it is a quote from me. Not true. All fake. Please Stop,” Mercer said in a Tweet.
Although I'm sure he must have had a good chuckle over the excuse the Cons offered up.
The meme was posted by Ariane Eckardt, who is listed on the CPC website as being the president of its Burnaby North-Seymour electoral district association. Eckardt, who says she runs the Facebook page and is “lightly involved” in the campaign, told Postmedia that the fake Mercer meme was never meant be taken serious.
“It was a joke, but all the lefties took umbrage with it, so we took it down” she said. “We were very surprised when people took it serious.”
Because it couldn't be more pathetic.
But what isn't so funny is the reason the Cons didn't fire Leung for electoral fraud.
And that's because she's a Scheer favourite.
Who like him is viciously homophobic, such a religious fanatic she doesn't believe that women can have an abortion even if they are raped.
Apart from not respecting a woman’s right to choose what to do with her own body, it’s the last question that I find particularly disturbing.
It asks if there are “any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to an abortion.” Leung answered “no.”
So if a woman gets pregnant after being raped, Leung is all for forcing that woman to carry the baby to term.
Which as you can imagine must have Scheer praising her to high heaven for being yet another member of his secret anti-abortion army.
And this murderous meme can't hurt either...
But what all of this should make clear is that the Cons are not a party any decent Canadians should support.
And if they want to stop those bestial religious fanatics.
This is the only leader who can do that...

Why isn't this woman in jail for threatening the prime minister? Reporting the Burnaby riding association to Elections Canada isn't nearly enough. They're all about "Trudeau must go to jail" but it's long overdue that the Cons and their fellow travelers started facing serious consequences for fomenting a culture of violence against this man. Disagree with him all you like but this shit is unacceptable. I wouldn't even tolerate it if it was a Con. FFS, Justin Trudeau is a husband, a brother, a father of three -- and a son. God forbid something ever did happen to him. They don't care that Margaret would have to bury another child???
I've met quite a few Chinese women who are pro white nationalist. Just sayin'
The real question is ; has a reformatory ever told the truth ?
Huh?! When did Leung threaten the PM? The article makes it clear that she's a member in good standing of the Christan Taliban, a forced-birther, an anti-LGBT bigot and willing to put false words into Rick Mercer's mouth. That's it. Calm down. We don't jail people for their beliefs and "jokes" and the day we do you'll know the Cons are in power.
Accidentall, yes but they usually apologize later.
