Forgetful Phil Wrongly Accuses Another MP of Lying!

Yesterday in Ottawa, Phil McColeman called another Member of Parliament (MP) a liar. Phil said:

"Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order.

"During question period today, the member for Winnipeg Centre quoted this member as saying something that I categorically did not say. I would like him to table the document that he is referring to where that quote was made, as well as the source and the time that he is referring to for the quote he put forward."

Phil was referring to NDP MP Pat Martin, who had said earlier:

"Mr. Speaker, I have a quote of the member for Brant of April 14. He stated, “The Canadian Wheat Board...should be decided upon in terms of its existence by the farmers themselves in a plebiscite or a vote as to whether it should continue with the mandate it was originally given”."

In all fairness, Pat Martin actually meant April 13th, not 14th.

Well, Phil, do you remember what you were doing on April 13, 2011?  We here at DumpPhil do: you were at the Brant Federation of Agriculture All-Candidates Debate at the Brant Sports Complex.  Here's a video clip (watch 1:28:00–1:28:25):



So we have a video of Phil saying something, then an MP claims that Phil said that very thing, and then Phil calls that MP a liar.  Not very classy!
