CPC Youth are chowing down

he CPC youth wing is crashing down in a ball of fire.  Apparently there are a number of Youth members who are acting like like they are adult CPCers and are practicing eating their own.

On a Facebook account one youth is complaining as follows:

To the National Councillors of the Conservative Party of Canada:
   I have already visited the office of my MP James Rajotte and I was advised to take my concerns to the party's National Councillors. As a long-time Conservative Party supporter it is with regret that I bring your attention the following blog which contains defamatory statements against myself and other members and/or supporters of the party:
http://noyouthwing.wordpress.com/
   This blog is linked to the following Facebook group which includes many current Conservative Party of Canada staffers:

   I am surprised that the party has so far decided to turn a blind eye to the activities of their own staff members against fellow conservatives. The party may not be able to control what its staff do in their spare time, but the party certainly is under no obligation to retain these staff members. In light of indecisiveness on the part of the party, I have created the following facebook group in response:
http://www.facebook.com/groups.php?ref=sb#/group.php?gid=107179696183&ref=ts
   If the party isn't willing to fire its staff members who are promoting this character defamation and libel, than those of us who have been subjected to it are obligated to take our case directly to party members, party donors and the media. I believe this matter could be easily resolved if the party made a public promise to fire any staff members involved in a group making defamatory statements about fellow party members and conservatives.
   The seriousness of this matter should not be doubted, as identity theft and libel are indictable offenses under the law. I don't think those of us who have been defamed ought to seek legal counsel at this point, as this matter can easily be solved internally by the Conservative Party of Canada. To move to that phase would surely cause further embarrassment for all parties involved.

Sincerely,
Graham Sproule

Cons are toast

When the infighting begins, the end is at hand. 

The social networking site has a new group that I was invited to join.  The invite came from a contact of mine who is a die-hard Con supporter. The group is labelled, "Fire CPC Staffers in the "No Youth Wing" and it shows how concerned Harper is to losing his digs at 24 Sussex and how even more concerned are the Con Hill staffers at losing their keys to the executive restrooms.

This is how the group is described: "The Conservative Party of Canada has chosen to turn a blind eye to the activities of its own staffers who - unsatisfied with only impugning the motives of grieving parents of fallen Canadian soldiers - have now decided to employ their defamatory rhetoric to create a "phony war" against fellow conservatives in the hopes of proving their loyalty to the PMO and keeping their cushy party jobs. The party cannot turn a blind eye to the activities of those under their employ. Here are the facts:

"The CPC staffers on the hill are becoming anxious about their job security. Their "No Youth Wing" facebook group is a spin-off of previous group called "Anti-AYCC" that was deleted by facebook for its defamatory content against at least one conservative. Most of the people on this "new group" are CPC Hill staffers. The campus clubs that supposedly support their group would require an executive meeting and a vote to do so. There is no question that the the CPC wants a new program to train its staffers, and these current staffers are worried about maintaining their jobs in the party."


Can you say... panic?

By the way, I decided not to join.
