Phil Does the Time Warp

The other day Phil was talking to his boss. He asked his boss to give him credit for doing a good job on a project. The boss responded that the project had been completed before Phil was even hired.

That's basically how the Chamber of Commerce all-candidates debate went down on Wednesday. Phil tried to take credit for funding a new water treatment facility in Ohsweken. Well we here at DumpPhil.ca were naturally suspicious of this claim, so we did a little digging and found this press release:

The funding was ANNOUNCED IN 2005, THREE MONTHS before Stephen Harper became Prime Minister, and a solid THREE YEARS before Phil even came into office. Lyin' Phil is tryin' to take credit for other people's work!

So unless Phil has a time machine in his office, there is no way that he or his government were responsible for the treatment plant.



The worst part is that Phil has been telling this lie for years, even though people called him on it long ago.

Phil on Immigration

Stephen Harper let Phil speak in the House of Commons. Here's what Phil said:

Mr. Speaker, our government is standing up for new immigrants who choose to come to Canada; the immigrants who make the choice to work hard and play by the rules. Our Conservative government stands up for immigrants who choose to make a home in Canada.

The obvious fact is that Phil is again parroting the party line. What's less obvious is that he's deliberately hiding the fact that the new Conservative Bill C-49 is a literal assault on the Constitutional rights of new Canadians (and those seeking refugee status).
