Sourcing a cross-border smear

Well, here's something interesting, on ABC News in the U.S., no less.

A "source close to the Prime Minister's Office" has told ABC News who leaked some misinformation to CTV News this week about conversations between the Canadian government and Barack Obama's campaign. The alleged leaker? None other than Ian Brodie, chief of staff to Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Canadian government I suspected it was an attempted smear job by harper and his cronies. It seems harper is still taking his marching orders from the repubs in the US.
