Who’s taking fish oil supplements?
They were prescribed for me when I was getting eye surgery (for example) because the omega-3 fat acids are supposed to improve healing and reduce dryness.
They are also supposed to improve heart health and lower the chance of a heart attack. Edit: sorry, forgot to add that this article blows that up though.
As the elected Prime Minister, you get automatic top secret security clearance. The expectation is that the democratic process would have put the person in power, so we want that person to do whatever they wish with that top secret information. Otherwise, we would be losing the power of the people and putting it in the hands of CSIS.
All appointed ministers do get security screening, as that was put in place by Harper, I think. As a leader of the opposition, Poilievre wouldn’t be subject to those requirements.
As far as I know there’s nothing to indicate that he wouldn’t pass the check. He just doesn’t want to get the security check and get the inside info, because that would limit what attacks he could make. As an outsider he can spout off whatever drivel he wants.
So, if he doesn’t pass your security screening, citizen, get out and vote.
