Recently Jack Layton has been complaining that the Prime Minister or Senior Members of his staff have been interfering in the American Presidential Election, and yet he has clearly taken sides in the elections himself. What hypocrisy!
According to a Toronto Star Article (http://www.thestar.com/News/World/article/309460), Jack made the following insinuations:
"NDP leader Jack Layton said [Stephen Harper's Chief of Staff Ian] Brodie should be dumped for his 'interference' and wondered whether the senior aide wasn't acting on Harper's own orders.
"'Is it possible that the Prime Minister himself knew about this information and authorized the leaks in order to discredit the campaign of Mr. Obama for president of the United States?' Layton said in the Commons."
On the NDP website, Jack and the Party proclaim to Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama "You have an ally with the NDP on NAFTA" (http://www.ndp.ca/page/6236).
Opening declaring yourself and your parties as allies to two of the contenders is a blatant case of interference in the presidential election. Taking sides and encouraging both candidates and a renegotiation of NAFTA shows Jack's arrogance and disregard for the sovereignty and independence of the United States.
Jack, you can't have it both ways: you can't complain about unlikely and unproven allegations of interference and then go off on your own and interfere in the election!
