The lie machine at its most incompetent

Cheech and Cons: Up in smoke

Good people of Scarborough-Agincourt, we give you Liberal Party candidate Arnold Chan. You should vote for him not so much for what Arnold has done - but for what the Conservative Party hasn't.

To be precise, the Conservative Party hasn't behaved itself in the Toronto riding, which was formerly the domain of one Jim Karygiannis. This week, the ruling party circulated noxious flyers all over Scarborough-Agincourt, much in the way the Axis used to drop propaganda leaflets on advancing Allied troops. As in that case, the Tory propaganda is unlikely to defeat the Grit forces.

Take a look at the leaflet in question, if you don't believe us. On one side, there is a photograph of Karygiannis, alongside a quote in which he is critical of the Liberal Party under leader Justin Trudeau. The Conservatives apparently think this is a big deal. Apparently they are unaware that Karygiannis - who stood astride Scarborough-Agincourt, like a Greek colossus of Rhodes, for more than 25 years - has disparaged every Liberal leader for a generation. Karygiannis being critical of Liberal leaders isn't in any way news.
