Pas de «complot»

 

Pour ceux qui croient que la fameuse vidéo de Stephen Harper où le premier ministre dit vouloir une majorité et attaque la coalition de «socialistes et de séparatistes», aurait été coulée par les Conservateurs eux-mêmes comme ballon politique, voici ce qu'en rapporte le Globe and Mail de ce matin.

Le fait serait plutôt, comme je l'avançais ce vendredi chez Christiane Charette, que tel n'était pas le cas.

(Mais disons tout de même qu'il est facile de soupçonner les Conservateurs d'être TOUJOURS obsédés par les stratégies et les tactiques)…

«Hot: (Or not, if you are a Tory) Justin Tetreault , 24, is being hailed as a hero by Liberals. The Young Liberal, who supported Michael Ignatieff in the 2006 leadership, is the university student who shot the controversial video of Stephen Harper speaking passionately about his need for a majority government and dissing the Liberals at a recent closed-door meeting in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.

In an e-mail exchange yesterday, he said he was invited to the event by the "Sault Ste. Marie Conservative Riding Association" and he brought his camera, a Canon Powershot, to get a picture with the Prime Minister.

He said he's a "political nerd" who just wanted to meet the Prime Minister and had no intention of taping the speech to pass along to the Liberals. He said he has pictures with every living PM except Kim Campbell .

And he thought a video of the speech would be a "good keepsake in case I did not get a picture." He said he was obvious in his taping of Mr. Harper, out in the open and in plain view. "After listening to the speech again when I got home and being disturbed by [Mr. Harper's] comments , I shared the video with some friends, some of whom are also Liberals." And then it was passed along to Mr. Ignatieff's office, which gave it to television networks. And Mr. Tetreault did get his picture with the PM.»
