Ministry of Health accidentally posts foot fetish porn link instead of Covid data

The health agency, also known as Santé Québec, left the porn link up for approximately 30 minutes before realising their mortifying blunder. They later apologised on Thursday to their 103,000 followers.

The ministry later tweeted: "Due to a situation beyond our control, a link with inappropriate content was posted on our Twitter account. We are looking for the causes. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

The link directed Twitter users to a video titled: Femdom (female domination) foot worship – and it wasn't long until users picked up on the gaffe and inundated timelines with screenshots to mock the mistake.

Twitter user Pierre Langevin mocked the agency, saying it should be easy to find the person responsible for the error.

"Obviously ministry officials have time to waste on sites containing inappropriate content, do not look for the causes but rather the individual," they tweeted. "A clue some tissues on his desk."

Liam Allen-Millen, another Twitter user said: "My deepest sympathies go out to the Santé Québec employee who accidentally tweeted out foot fetish porn from the official government Twitter page along with the daily Covid-19 update."
