Deputy Premier Thomas Lukaszuk says he’s rethinking his use of social media after getting a tongue lashing from the premier.

Last Tuesday, Lukaszuk uploaded a picture of a washed out road in Fairmont, B.C., joking that hotel rooms were going cheap because of all the mud.  

He removed the posting later and apologized saying he didn’t have all the facts.

Alison Redford said she was very disappointed by his comment.

Lukaszuk tells The Calgary Herald he will be more cautious before hitting the send button, making sure it can’t be taken the wrong way.
