Props to Jason from Gauntlet who did a little digging in response to my post “propaganda peice” about the new Conservative Government’s “make-over” of the Government of Canada website into a press release generator for Conservative Party of Canada.
For those of you who may have had doubts about this allegation, check out the links Jason has provided in the comment section of that post:
Compare these archives of the Government of Canada site with these archives of the Liberal Party of Canada site.
There’s no question that the current situation is vastly different. Vastly.
When Harper said he had a problem with Liberals covertly using government resources to support their party’s political objectives, I thought the operative word was “government.” Evidently, it was “covertly.”
As long as you’re brazen about it, it’s OK.
