Facebook Party of Nunavut Dissolves in Acrimony

(IBC Investigative Division) An indignant Victor Tootoo today denied a story published on this blog last week, repudiating any involvement with the so-called 'Facebook Party of Nunavut' and stating categorically that "I am not and have never been associated with any Facebook faction, My Space movement, or Linked-In lobby."

As for calls that the Senate be abolished, Tootoo stated categorically that was not his opinion. "I may have said that the Ottawa SENATORS should be abolished. The Leafs, for sure. But not the Senate."

Asked how these extreme views came to be attributed to him, Tootoo was uncertain, but speculated: "People should always read press releases extra carefully when they're dated April 1st."
