Is There Nothing The Harper-Cons Won’t Do With Phones?

“It appears that the CPC has engaged in other scam practices with phones. It’s not enough that companies were paid (more on that below) to contact voters and *prank* them with harassing calls, while pretending to be the other parties.


It engineered a campaign to call voters on Election Day, claim to be representing Elections Canada and deliberately direct them to a wrong location that was ^NOT a polling station. This Rovian tactic is called voter suppression. It is a criminal act for people to impersonate EC staff.

Now it appears the CONtempt Party been trying to pressure and scam vulnerable elders to donate money to it….

Now.
What will the response be?
“The other guys do it too!”
Which, of course will be shouted and spewed from rooftops and killing floors, both, by surrogates and shillophants until the cows come home and/or the microphones are turned off for the weekend.
Why?
It works:
“…Most Canadians believe Liberals (55%) and Conservatives (63%) are likely to provide false and misleading information to voters through telephone calls with pre-recorded messages during a political campaign…”
And why does it work?
Well, I’d like to suggest that it has a whole lot to do how the proMedia just keeps on playing the ‘he said/she said game, straight-up, despite the overwhelming evidence of extreme asymmetrical bouts of ethical phone screw-overs by one specific side.
OK?
