Ontario PC MPP was told to make misogynistic smear by his leader
The sad tale of PC MPP nobody Rick Nicholls’ idiocy is now well-known. He made an offensive statement, and was called to account for it by the Ontario NDP’s Gilles Bisson, the Legislature’s Speaker and his hometown media.
Last night, however, I finally got to see the video record, below. In it, Nicholls can be seen (around the two-minute mark) clearly reading from a prepared statement. He didn’t just say “squeeze” – he was told to say it. This morning, meanwhile, it’s been confirmed to me by two of the growing number of Ontario Tory Hudak-haters that their leader’s office instructed the hapless Nicholls to say what he said.
After Bisson’s intervention, Nicholls apologized. Will Hudak now do likewise?
Then why didn’t the honourable member from Chatham-Kent-Essex refuse to say it & thereby remain honourable?
I’m assuming your question is rhetorical!
He was only following orders.
Yep, it was clearly Hudak directed to target Lisa. I think the brilliant “squeeze” was Rick’s own though…”Baby”…
Completely rhetorical. I lament though that personal integrity has become a quaint anachronism in our House.
