A federal Liberal riding association executive with a penchant for bad behaviour online would shed no tears for COVID-19 quarantine-breakers shot dead by government snipers.
Mark Elyas, who in 2018 ended up in hot water over profane Facebook rants calling for Trump supporters to lose custody of their children and be exiled to detention camps, posted on Facebook last month support for now-discredited comments by Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte urging police to kill citizens defying coronavirus lockdown.
“I hate Duerte (sic,) but he 100% right on this one,” Elyas wrote in response to an April 2 post by YouTuber and podcast host Kyle Orvis.
