Scott Moe Booed at the Brier

The Brier is basically Scott Moe’s base – older, white, rural – and he got booed?!?

I mean, a lot of grandparents have grandkids who are being screwed by the Sask Party’s unwillingness to negotiate in good faith with STF. Maybe it’s finally reaching people that Moe has to go?

Scott Moe gets booed at the Brier. The crowd immediately switches to cheers once their name is announced but everyone heard the boos for Moe. He has pissed off the wrong people in this province. Time To Go Moe. pic.twitter.com/25qpTZYy8z
