NDP radio ad fabricates Brad Wall quote: Saskatchewan Party

Jul 20, 2011 | 12:59 PM

Saskatchewan Party MLA Bill Boyd calls a recent NDP radio ad desperate after his party discovered two completely different statements from Premier Brad Wall were spliced together to fabricate a quote.

The different statements allegedly come about ten minutes apart in a scrum that was held during the crop insurance strike.

The Saskatchewan NDP issued a statement saying the Wall government's reaction to the ad is “childish” and “over the top”.

“We stand by the advertisement which displays in Brad Wall's own words the disdain he has shown for middle class, working families from teachers to health care professionals, from Crown workers to government employees,” said NDP House Leader Kevin Yates in the written statement.

“The ad is an accurate reflection of the government's attitude toward working people, and we will continue to expose that attitude.”

Boyd believes the ad should be pulled and the NDP should pay for it instead of the taxpayers.

Boyd calls the ad an act of a desperate man way behind in the polls leading up to the provincial election.
