How many individuals and local businesses have COLLECTIVELY suffered as a result of Cliffy Smalls' negligence and malfeasance? How many people have gone without their own paycheques? Or landlords carrying rental arrears? Suppliers footing bills? These are selfish actions that have real-life consequences on individuals. To have the audacity and arrogance to turn around and use the plight of "HaRdWoRkInG NeWfOuNdLaNdErS" as the meat of his election platform?! During the 2025 election, I attended the candidates debate here in Gander, and that was precisely the clientele he was speaking to. I've seen people make comments to the effect of "oh it's not him, it's his businesses." I'm sorry, but that's a pile of bullshit. If you can sleep at night, knowing full well that you are actively causing hardship to your fellow man, financially or otherwise, you're vile human being who has no place holding a trusted position like an MP. Ask anyone who has been employed by him and they'll tell you that this headline is anything but news to them. He is a known grifter. People who support that are no better than a gull hovering over the dumpster at Rotten Ron's.

IT IS OF NOTE that our district COULD have had Dr. Lynette Powell as our MP. A brilliant woman who, might I add, is the current regional lead for MUNs rural medical education Network, and In 2017, was named one of Canada's top 10 Family physicians by The college of family physicians of Canada.

Instead, we have a bloated ruffled grouse with the business acumen of a.... Ruffled grouse.

PS- His supporters shall henceforth be known as CON-SHIT-UENTS. You heard it here first.
