(I don't actually know anything about this, just wikipedia-ing it.)
Making false claims about refugees seems to be in vogue right now.
The NDP already have Fin Donnelly lying about and using the tragic circumstances in the death of a child for political gain.

That's the worst part of this long campaign - personall disgust for all of them grows daily.
