At any rate, this is probably going to hurt the Conservatives more than the NDP (as ridiculous as that is) so you can just relax. Harper is still gonna "pay".
Its not a "potential crime days before an election" though. Its a non-crime (confirmed) about 15 years ago. If this took place tonight or last week then I'm all for it....but to bring up something that took place 15 years ago, where there was no wrong-doing and no charges or anything where the source isn't revealed - that is being done to smear a guy a couple of days before the vote. There is really no other reason to do that.

Also he is claiming he didn't know what they did there. How stupid does he think the Canadian public is? Do you really think his wife bought his story? Would yours?
Well according to his wife it was a registered massage clinic. I don't think my wife would care if I went for a massage....I know that when she goes I couldn't care less though.
