Twitter drama…is in the mist of BC politics, municipal vs. provincial. A Vancouver city councilor has apologized to BC Housing Minister Rich Coleman for venting her anger on Twitter. Coun. Andrea Reimer disagreed with Coleman’s policy contained in a bill called the Assistance to Shelter Act he introduced in the legislature this past Thursday. The bill gives police the power t force the homeless into shelter during extremely cold weather.
Reimer turned to Twitter to express her rage and wrote “Thinking about introducing a motion requiring police to pick up Minister Coleman next time he’s in Vancouver and drop him off at Jenny Craig.” Cruel. Reimer should’ve known better…seriously, it’s not Grade 4. The tweet quickly went viral and prompted Reimer to apologize. Lesson here is that you should NEVER tweet when you’re angry…it just makes you look stupid.
