Tories Modify Wikipedia Article On Jim Prentice
Government buffing Prentice's Wikipedia entry
Quote:

The government has been editing Minister of Industry Jim Prentice's Wikipedia entry, removing mentions of the recent copyright-reform controversy and hailing the minister as personifying "experience, confidence and competence, ability and capability."

Another statement that was deleted, this time on May 29, was: "The minister is planning on introducing a bill on June 5 2008 and is not communicating with the public or the press on the bill. The minister is being heavily influenced by foreign publishers and distributors."

The glowing comments about Prentice were added on May 29, Geist said, and included claims that "Prentice has been praised for his strong management of the Industry portfolio. He has been dubbed the unofficial deputy prime minister, and is seen as the strongest Minister in the Harper government."

The more I hear about the Tories, the more I think the Liberals were not all that bad after all.
