Video of Harper, Ford at BBQ removed from YouTube

Harper congratulates himself and Ford for cleaning up “left-wing mess” in Ottawa

A YouTube video of Prime Minister Stephen Harper congratulating himself for cleaning up the left-wing mess in Ottawa and Rob Ford for cleaning up the “NDP mess” in Toronto at a Ford-hosted tribute BBQ for Finance Minister Jim Flaherty was removed at Ottawa’s request. Other revelations in the video include Harper divulging details of a fishing trip he took with the Toronto mayor, and a statement revealing Harper’s support for Conservative candidate Tim Hudak in Ontario’s provincial election. The Conservative government contacted the guest who posted the video and asked for it to be removed.
