👀 Today, I sat down with Ted Dzogan, PC Party member (and former rival to Grant Jackson for the Sprucewoods nomination), for a raw conversation about how we got here: a by-election in what was supposed to be a PC stronghold.

Why does it matter? Because their current candidate, Colleen Robbins, had over 3,000 deleted tweets resurface—showing a troubling record of controversial posts: from praising residential schools to spreading disinformation.

Then, right before the campaign, her social media was scrubbed.

❓ Who knew?

❓ Who’s responsible?

❓ How did the PC Party allow this candidacy?

I’ve personally read every resurfaced post—context included. These are not attacks, these are Robbins’ own words.

This is a deep dive into what went wrong, why it matters, and what accountability in politics should look like.

And how in Deveryn Ross’ words, did “the Progressive Conservative Party allow(ed) Robbins to run as that party’s candidate despite a history of offensive social media comments”?

Hit play, grab some popcorn, and don’t be afraid to smash that pause button when you need to. 🍿
