Canadian Ministry Links Tweet About Corona Figures to Porn Site

The Ministry of Health of the Canadian province of Quebec released very exciting corona figures on Thursday.   A tweet from the ministry briefly did not lead to the ministry's website with the latest corona figures but to a video on a porn website. That writes the Canadian newspaper La Presse. The message was online for about 40 minutes before the incorrect link was removed. The ministry later apologized for the "inconvenience" in a separate tweet. "Due to a situation beyond our control, a hyperlink containing inappropriate content was posted on our Twitter account," it said. The causes of the error are being investigated.

The prime minister tried to win votes at the last minute on Sunday by campaigning in key districts in Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia. The prime minister has headed a minority government for two years and is likely to remain so after the election. Still, it would be a historic achievement if his party were to be the biggest again. He would then be the eighth prime minister in Canad...
