Canadian TV: Obama is Lying About NAFTA (!) (Video)

Update#2: CTV continues to stand by the story and states that its sources are "at the highest levels of the Canadian government." (Thanks Bobb999!) Update: "A spokesman for the Canadian Embassy to the United States, Tristan Landry, flatly denied the CTV report." Yet CTV stands by its story.

Whoa! Canadian TV says Sen. Obama is lying to the American people about his NAFTA position. Lying to the American people in order to get votes in Ohio! Whoa!!

CTV: Obama's NAFTA Stand is Empty Campaign Rhetoric



CTV Canada: "Barack Obama has ratcheted up his attacks on NAFTA, but a senior member of his campaign team told a Canadian official not to take his criticisms seriously, CTV News has learned. Within the last month, a top staff member for Obama's campaign telephoned Michael Wilson, Canada's ambassador to the United States, and warned him that Obama would speak out against NAFTA, according to Canadian sources. The staff member reassured Wilson that the criticisms would only be campaign rhetoric, and should not be taken at face value."
