Definitely the correct verdict imo. But still think it was a moronic decision to head over and knowingly put himself in that situation in the first place.

The Jussie Smollett story is kinda funny. One of the most elaborate hoaxes I've seen in a while, but like most hoaxes, the truth came out in the end, and he was found guilty in court yesterday of faking a hate crime.

I'm listening to a Twitter space right now with Conservatives discussing O'Toole getting canned. What they are saying is what I was thinking, and what a friend was telling me yesterday who used to vote NDP but Conservative in 2021. And that is O'Toole was clearly spineless and dishonest.

When it comes to the trucker rally thing, he clearly showed that he's as spinless as Patton Oswalt who was willing to throw his friend of 35 years, Dave Chappelle, under the bus to make himself look good. This is disgusting in the eyes of most Canadians. My friend mentioned above tells me she regrets voting Conservative because of her disgust for O'Toole's spinelessness. Both her and I were shocked at how he dishonestly painted the Nazi carrying guy as part of the trucker movement. He was willing to throw the truckers under the bus to make himself look good.

Okay, now how about some humor....

I've spent some time on the Ottawa Reddit forum. Those poor residents. You can even hear that non stop blare on every video of the protest.
