’Dirty, sleazy Internet tricks’

Seven times during QP this morning—six times by John Baird, once by Ted Menzies—the government alleged the NDP was behind a “sleazy, dirty” Internet campaign. (Note: the evidence in this regard is decidedly flimsy.) Vic Toews is apparently seeking an investigation.

In an interview with Evan Solomon, host of CBC Radio’s The House, to air Saturday, Toews says he’s going to send a letter to Commons Speaker Andrew Scheer to request an investigation.
