They Said It First!! Gas Tax!

I usually don't watch CTV's Question Period, but a comment from Fay on a previous post, made me look into it. Was I in for a shock! They started off showing the new Conservative ad, then quickly forgot all about it, in their discussion of....wait for it.....the Liberal GAS TAX!! Yup, I have the evidence.



They start by saying that Dion has promised it won't be a tax on gas, but by the end, they were all calling it a gas tax, not a carbon tax. They also mentioned that it might be both a carbon (GAS) tax, and cap and trade (another tax). Even these Liberal cheerleaders couldn't spin it positively for Dion. I think they were broadsided by the ads, and their actual non-spun attitudes came out in the interview. It was very telling, but I'm sure the Liberal spin machine will be fixed by tomorrow and they will all be back on script. You can see the whole interview, here.

But, they said it first, GAS TAX! I'm not making this up, I'm not allowed to! HA!
