Huh?!

You're fast, Kate. I literally just emailed this to you a minute ago as soon as I heard it on Sun TV News too. (Thank heavens the Jays just had their third out so I clicked back to Adler's show.)

BTW, was Al Gore in town at the time?

Maybe this election will have a happy ending after all?

Jack! off to the races?
Guess we don't know Jack!?
Jack! the Dripper?
Johnny come lately?
i'm too gobsmacked to go on...

Suddenly while the host and the Toronto sun reporter were talking about Jack's escapade the Sun News channel went blank.

Unreal - We were watching this on Sun TV, about 5 minutes in, and the station disappeared!!!

I'm calling Shaw (we're in Ottawa) now, but my friend who gets Sun TV free from HDTV antenna says it's still on the air...

I'm capping it right now.

This sort of thing rubs me the wrong way.

I see now I'm not the only one with a blank screen.

hmm, just came back onair as I hit post.

Yikes. I need to mark this date. This might be the only time in history that Jack doesn't want to have his mug displayed on the TV screens.

Nice timing. Rub and tug for Jack. How old was the girl?

Shaw back on air!

Beauty.

so why does Warren look so sad?

Still showing here in Halifax.

Sun News I mean, not Jack.

It is back on now and Warren Kinsella is being asked about it.

Wouldn't it be something if Jackoff had his big moment jerked out from under him???

It's back, all of a sudden, no explanation tho...

Guess we know why the song "Happy Jack" was so apropos!

OK...I get the jist of it...but details please.

And it was a private, for profit rub and tug!

At least he didn't go to the US for it.

Still nothing on Global, what about the other channels? Of course one doesn't want to seem to revel in another man's shame.

Iggy for one welcomes our Shiatsu overlords; Gesundheit.

back in '96? How was it kept quiet for so long?

Apparently NDP stands for Not Done Partying.

That's interesting - Sun TV on Rogers in T.O. is about 10 minutes behind. Combover boy just came on.

Was just saying that if they can have Kinsella in for an interview, they can hardly be blamed for being biased. Apparently, he writes for one of the Sun's papers.

This is quite the Federal Erection issue!!!

but will it be an erection tissue, er, election issue...

Talk of NDP election win just another case of premature Jack Layton.

Oh I'm using that one, Kathy!

how will it affect his poling?

Won't this firm up his support with swing voters?

Will support for Taliban Jack go soft?

Mpearl takes it!

During that same era I was walking back from a party and stopped on a street corner near Layton's office to wait for the light to change. Jack was standing there with one of his aides. (Oh, and there was also three guys passing around a bottle of whiskey, but they don't matter in this.)
It was pretty late so I figured jack must have been burning the proverbial midnight oil.
I suppose oil may have been involved.

That said, it took a long time for that story to blow!

Can we expect more such revelations this weekend?
What else might be in the bag of tricks?
Jack-off will be doing a quick re-examination of past 'boners'.

wow, there's just too many puns to be made of this. This will be a very long comments thread.

Jack wasn't nimble and Jack wasn't quick Jack got caught with his hand on his stick As the mess was cleaned up by the Toronto police Jack yelled, it's not me, but pass me a wipe!

after taking the orange pill, if your enthusiasm still remains firm after a full weekend, call your doctor...

Snagglepuss, he's got political boners galore. I'm astonished that they have been so little publicized.

Come on now don't be so hard on the guy. Taliban Jack felt stiff and sought relief in a massage. I'm sure this is common behavior among champagne socialists. His excuse will likely be that he was there undercover checking out the daycare facilities available for the women.

This is, I think the biggest scandal since the Francis Fox affair, when he was found forging his girlfriend's husband's name on a document for approval of an abortion, as it was in the old days when the father had a say on whether or not his child should die. To my mind, this was far,far worse. That said, most NDPers are moral castrates in these matters, and he is liable to pick up votes from idiots who think that he is being "judged" by others.

Come, come, folks. We're bigger than going for these low-blow puns.

I didn't see this, but people need to exercise caution here.

If this ends up being fake, he will benefit from this type of story.

Jack was doing real good with the women voters, no?

Jack's always struck me as a little "off," could never explain it. His relationship with Olivia also seems a little weird, and I've often wondered if it's some kind of beard ...

That Layton, as a Toronto councillor who was sticking up (pardon the pun) for the rights of women exploited by bawdy houses, apparently "didn't know" that the place in which he was having a shiatsu massage was, in fact, a bawdy house is, of course, beyond credible.

So, Olivia is supporting Jack? I wonder what her possible connection with the "massage parlour" is? She has extensive connections with the Chinese community in Toronto and, sometimes, it might be worth asking, how extensive?

So how big was it?

Well knowing what a shiatsu massage really is makes me believe that the excuse given to the police by eJackoLayton is a load of shiatsu that spread properly on a quarter section of land would yield a bumper crop!

Oh this is the way you rub and tug, rub and tug, rub and tug. This is the way you rub and tug so early in the election.

Wack Layton

I'm trying to get my receiver set up as I type and do not as yet get Sun News. Is this a put on?

While it's true that this doesn't look good for Layton I think it looks even worse for Sun TV. Why do I suddenly feel so dirty?

This whole story stinks. But Catsmeat says it's true?

If SH was the john, CBC would be all over this 24/7 nonstop. If this is what Sun News is delivering, then yeah!!!!! Palideau for GG!

(Ezra is the freshest face on TY in a decade.)

You could say he's had a lot of experience soaking the taxpayers.

"If this ends up being fake, he will benefit from this type of story. "

He's admitted to it, making a statement now, but claims he thought it was a therapeutic type massage.

The medium is the massage.

Obviously doing research,sort of like living in subsidized housing,or trying out private health care.

Maybe he was just recruiting for his "Riding" Association???

This will do him no harm at all in Quebec.

Yup, I knew he wanted to bend-over the tax payer!

Surprise! Surprise!

Checking out cbc.ca, there's no mention, that I can see, of this item.

It's not up anywhere ...

Interestinger...

"so why were you not wearing any clothes".

Also, the woman involved is from China.... I wonder what Olivia thought about that? I believe they were married at the time.

Ouch....

You actually forgot about this?

This was reported on 5 years ago .... successfuly jamned down the memory holy?

It's called 'whipping your caucus'!

My Sat Receiver just got tuned and "Holy $#it!!!"

Surprise, surprise. Nothing up, that I can see, at cbc.ca.

Harper 06: "Stand up!"
Iggy 11: "Rise up!"
Jack! 11: "Get it up!"

National Newswatch has a headline up,story to follow.

Jack is going to need a stiff drink

Love your tweet too, Kate.

I blame the mustache - if you look like a 70's porn star, pretty soon you'll start to act one.

Politically, I doubt that anyone besides his Jack's wife cares about his sex life.

Sun News: after his 'release' he rode his bike home.
OMG. I don't know if I should be laughing or crying.
Pass the tissues...

The workers controlled the means of seduction.

Well this could be a bit of a game changer, likely not with Quebecers though.

I blame the mustache - if you look like a 70's p#rn star (damn filter), pretty soon you'll start to act one.

Politically, I doubt that anyone besides his Jack's wife cares about his sex life.

Rise up! Riiiiiiiise Up! Now do you guys get it where I was going with that?

I understand that they ask you during the massage, if you want a "happy ending". I have been told that, I do not know it from first "hand" experience.

"You actually forgot about this?

This was reported on 5 years ago .... successfuly jamned down the memory holy?"

really? it was?

Tip of the iceberg!! Major slimeball. No wonder the scum bag supports human trafficing.

hard to say if this 'smear' will stick to him

Jocko found naked in a massage parlor? Kinda hard to swallow!

I don't think this is going to change a thing: people who like him are going to vote for him anyway, although Quebeckers will probably scratch their heads and wonder why there was no ciggy and snifter of brandy involved.

Expect the Sun's competitors to criticize them for daring to go with the story.

I feel bad for the guy. He's out having a couple drinks. Feels a little melancholy. A little nostalgic perhaps. He goes back to the place where he met Olivia. He gets to hear those magic words again. "Hey Joe. Me love you long time".

Jumpin Jack Slash what a smash smash smash. If this is true, and does not, get play by the CBC CTV Globe etc well we all know what that means. This garbage has been covered up for years, when you are a "Lieberal" read Keith Richards book about little miss Maggie Turdough hussey following the Rolling Stones around to keep hotel beds warm, How much money changes hands to keep this stuff quiet, and just think if this was PMSH, Peter would be on it like stink on a baby diaper! There is a God after all, enjoy Jack.

"but honey, the prime minister did it too and his wife was OK with it..."

maybe this is why he ended up in the Shouldice clinic!?
-
nagging pulled groins can be a real problem...

Usually MSM outlets let each other have their big scoop exclusively for a while.

After the Iggy/Iraq fiasco I hope SNN is double and triple verifying.

So Olivia Chow comes out to make a statement....It isn't hard to see who wears the pants in that party...

Jack has admitted to it and giving statements (excuses) now.

Ha!

Searched for 'bawdyhouse' Results 1 - 2 of about 2.

http://www.cbc.ca/search/cbc?ie=utf8&site=CBC&output=xml_no_dtd&getfields=description&oe=utf8&safe=high&q=bawdyhouse

Was it a private or publicly funded clinic?

still nothing on CBC or CTV.
how will dudes ever get the address?

Of course Olivia should make the first statement, she is the only one whose business this is. Besides, any appearance by Jack at this time will only create unwelcome mental images of him engaged in various acts. Who wants that rolling in their brain?

Sun TV: [approximate] "The cops told Jack that Asian gangs sometimes videotaped activities in the bawdy house."

Gawd, I do not want to see that.

If the story is verified it will be on CBC/CTV/Global etc.

Jack's fans are going bonkers on the print story's comment board.

Prime Minister E-Jack-U-Layton

"I was just getting a Shiatsu"

I am so looking forward to seeing the Layton say this.

And will Bob Fife say the phrase "rub and tug"

Priceless.

I havent stopped laughing at this since I saw it on SUN TV.

Probably will help Jack in Quebec though.

News Flash. NDP will legalize prostitution of elected.

I just phoned some friends about this who are without Sun News. I think they'll try harder to get it now.

I remember GW and a DUI.

Thanks Jack, for bringing American-style politics to Canada.

People are asking how come this hasn't come "up" before.

Because there was no Sun News Network.

I'll bet Lloyd and Peter have known about this for a long, long time, and just kept it under wraps.

As I said in an earlier post, there's something off, weird, not quite right, about Jack. I've never been able to put my finger on it (good thing, too) but I'm thinking we're about to find out about what makes Jack ... tick.

"If the story is verified it will be on CBC/CTV/Global etc."
Perhaps but until then the Big Media will report on the much bigger more important stories that Canadians feel affect their lives. Like the Longest Wedding Ever.

I suppose this was the "April surprise" then?

It'll be like Iggy getting booed at the hockey game. They will HAVE to pay attention as it's going viral.

Jack was just supporting a woman's right to choose.

What a greasy bastard. Never trust a bald man with a mustache.

So in the early 2000's Clinton and Bush 41 wound up in the same barber shop getting shaves at the same time. The barbers were speechless, not wanting to say anything at all because they didn't want the two to start arguing. After Clinton was done, his barber asked him "Would you like some aftershave on that Mr. President?" and Clinton asked to smell it. One sniff later, Clinton burst out "Oh Gawd no, that smells like a whorehouse. Hillary would kill me!". At just that moment Bush's shave finished. His barber asked him "Would you like some aftershave on that Mr. President?". Without missing a beat, Bush responded "sure, neither Barbara nor I know what a whorehouse smells like."

I want to know if Jack is a lefty or a righty.

Or both?

"No, officer, I said I was into a Shih Tzu."

"If the Kleenex was wet, you must forget!"

The Sun reporter is cracking me up: "smear job" . . . "campaign starting to grow" . . . "lots of balls in the air."

Loosely related: Media, Shaw off air.

This is will sound parnoid but my pre-set recording of the Beck series of shows, keeps getting wiped (for those not familiar with PVR, you can set the digital recorder to record all of a series -- say all the Beck shows). Was talking with a good friend, a fellow Beck fan, and he's had the same problem. And he confirms that this pre-set series deletion happens on no other show, only Beck. I strongly suspect people at Shaw, who can look into the digital cable box, are fooking with my scheduled series recordings.

from the sun:

"When the policeman and his partner walked into a second-floor room at the Toronto massage parlour, they saw an attractive 5-foot-10 Asian woman who was in her mid-20s and the married, then-Metro councillor, lying on his back in bed."

bed? not a table?

Little Jack Dipper
Went to a stripper
Sampling some Asian Pie
Along came the Vice Squad
And said: 'Gotcha' You big Fraud!
And Jack went 'Wee, wee, wee, all the way home!

[So what if it's two different nursery rhymes?]

Was she qualified to give a massage? Did he check her credentials or did she have a certificate on the wall? Was this a certified clinic? come one MSM get some questions happening and clarify. Never mind his statements.

Video in about 15 minutes.

I know that plenty of Dipper supporters will be crying foul over this, but fair's fair. Max Bernier got booted out of caucus for dating some woman with vague biker gang connections. The MSM was all over that non-story for weeks and weeks. The Dippers like to dish it out, but they sure can't take it.

It's always about the oil, isn't it Jack?

No whore for oil!

"What wet Kleenex, officer? I was field testing the new NDP/Coalition immigration certificate?"

As long as the massage parlour was a union shop, he's got my vote!

The Toronto Star has Jack's apology / denial up. Say goodnight Jack.

http://www.thestar.com/

John? He'sJackLayton!

So Jack's defense is that he is too f%*king stupid to spot the difference between a massage therapist and a rub n tug?

Brilliant!

It was so well known that Tommy Douglas was an adulterer that his Minister use to call him "Tommy Tow Wives".

Seems like Jack-Off Layton is more like Tommy Douglas that any of us realized.

Perhaps he was just helping the girl with her family reunification plans. Apparently she had a younger sister Jack wanted to meet.

I wonder if Jack told Olivia about being naked and the cum soaked kleenex when he supposedly told her the story many years ago. No wrath like a Chinese wife....

By not issuing his own statement on the matter - by relying on his wife's and his lawyer's and Kathleen Monk's statements instead - Layton is acting more like a suspect than a leader.

He's going to have to address the issue sooner rather than later, but his choice of language in doing so is going to be problematic. It's a given that he'll say it's all a dirty-tactic smear, and he'll bring up the timing of it, but at some point he will have to address the specifics of the allegation by either denying that he knew it was a suspected bawdy house connected to organized Asian crime (which would be tantamount to admitting that it was) or he'll have to say that it wasn't that kind establishment." The first statement sounds implausible, while the latter would invite constantly-updated "fact-checking" about the establishment - including photos, background stories on organized Asian crime, and forced prostitution, and immigration abuse, etc., etc., -- in the news cycle.

On the most important issue - the election - it will be interesting to see whether this is the sort of thing that will greatly offend left-leaning voters, including left-leaning Quebecers. I suspect not.

Here are my predictions: the usual suspects in the left/prog MSM will redirect this story into an attack on Sun TV News; we will hear and read accusations of American-style "dirty politics" and suggestions that this is all about the Harper "regime."

Come listen to a story ‘bout Taliban Jack
A poor little socialist looking for some crack
But things got kinda desparate with nothing round to screw
So he fired off his gun with the help of Madame Wu.

Well the next thing you know, Old Jack’s so debonair
Kin folks say “Jack move away from here”
“Ottawa with Iggy is the place you ought to be”
So he packed up the prius... but he died on SUN TV

Just saw the latest report from the campaign trail (I think in Courtnay) and he is talking about a "smear campaign". and though the colour on today's T.V. is very true to life, there appears to be no blush on his face. The least they could have done is put some rouge on his cheeks.

Fife just reported it. Lloyd asked for the address.

Who knew Wacky Jack had so many meanings?

Jack WOULD say that, wouldn't he?

come on Sun News TV:
get cameras down to that neighborhood.
show us the building.
get inside and show the rooms if possible.
does it look like it is or could have been a legit massage therapy clinic?

Sun TV video here

Gives new meaning to needing more cunning little runts in politics!

I guess the NDP have locked up the prostitute vote. Iggy stole the junky vote away so Jack made up for that.

Why don't Jack take on a real beauty right there in his own party! I'm speaking of the ravishing Libby Davis of course! More his type.

Mississauga Matt: Sun reporter was breaking me up too!
"We all know politics is a body contact sport"
"has this affected Jack's performance tonight"

@ Jamie MacMaster.
Well done sir.

It's not a very long clip, but there's video of the masseuse now online. Looks pretty young to me.
http://tinyurl.com/35rz82z

The lefty meltdown in the comments to the Toronto Sun story is quite spectacular.

Probably some bald mustched 15 year old runnin around TO Chitown about now just wishin mom had aborted him. Suck it up Jack, you live by the sword, Maxime Bernier is sending you a card no doubt. For to long bad people have been given a pass by our MSM, well the good people are now watching, your fun is over perverts.

Layton responds here.

Rosemary Barton from CBC said they will do their own investigation on this story. The National didn't have it on...no room...it was all taken up with Harper bashing and showing NFLD...ABC and Mildewski smearing the PM.

Guess this is why Jack-off voted against pedefiles(SP) sexually involved with minors, sentencing. Could be why he didn't like the budget...the crime bills??

This story could of been handed to the Sun by Liberals too...they are experts at digging...

Mississauga Matt, you're the greatest! That being said, if you get your hands on the triad extortion video, please don't post it!

He claims to be Canada's Barak Obama...now he can say he's Canda's Bill Clinton too!

Jack! Found Naked in Common Bawdy House:
dare I say,
the Emperor has No Clothes...

You people should be ashamed of yourselves for criticizing Jack Layton's youth employment initiatives.

Soo-she?

That's disgusting! "He came on a bicycle".

people are complaining at the Sun online story that the story is 15 years old.
So, how old is his 'masseuse'?

Was it a public or private clinic?

Hillary came to the rescue of Slick Willie, and Olivia has torn a leaf out of the same book for Jack.

The problem is that the only time the amoral left shows moral indignation is when conservatives are caught with their pants down/with their clothes off.

This would only hurt Harper. It won't hurt a lefty like Layton. The old media will circle the wagons.

I think you're right EBD. (Here are my predictions: the usual suspects in the left/prog MSM will redirect this story into an attack on Sun TV News; we will hear and read accusations of American-style "dirty politics" and suggestions that this is all about the Harper "regime.") I think it will backfire and should just be left alone. Those striving to make a story about it will be represented as petty and puritanical. The timing is suspect. Jack is rising in the polls (it's hard to avoid using certain words isn't it?) and we have to go all the way back to 1996 to find some dirt?

I don't care. I thought he was sleazy before and this story doesn't worsen my opinion. To those who are playing around with voting for him, for whatever incomprehensible reason, are unlikely to be swayed by this either. Consequently, I think that those pushing the story are more likely to cause damage to the Conservatives than to the NDP.

I suspect that in this country, we have reached the tipping point where more people feed out of the public trough than those who don't or can't. Hence, the weight of self-interest is shifting the tide against the responsible, hard-working citizen.

sasquatch

it's these small things that define a person, and if his wife can't trust him...........

Massaging poll data, Jack?

Seriously,
Would Warren be all hang dog depressed if he knew or suspected Liberals are responsible for springing this on John er-uh Jack and know that it will come back to bite them in the polls ?

He looked scared and kind of sad.

Double Dipper

Therapuetic Massage.....did he claim it back through the health plan that councillors would have had?

Someone might want to ask if he made the claim? And if not why not? Too bad the records are so old, I am sure they are gone.

"Would Warren be all hang dog depressed if he knew or suspected Liberals are responsible for springing this on John er-uh Jack and know that it will come back to bite them in the polls ? "

yup.. exactly my thought when I seen his face.

Global news led with this item on their 11 pm news. However, they made it clear Layton wasn't charged with any crime, and was simply released.

CTV news still going bonkers on the wedding.

Many, many licensed therapeutic massage establishments accept only cash. Ask Jack - he'll tell you.

Stimulus spending???

It would be nice to see his office budget for that year, I wouldn't be surprised if he used it to pay for his "massages". Douchebag Jack just lost a few women's votes.

the left likes to portray harper as a prick.
but at least he keeps it in his pants.
-
and i'll bet that steve won't comment on this.
he'll want to be the bigger man...

Sounds like Jack blew a wad on that massage.

Did Jack pay GST?

Lloyd and Fifer just did their best stoic (not embarrassed at all ) interpretation of the bawdy-house events,
Conspicously absent from the report were the words 'naked' and 'shiatsu'.

Fife did a quick job on the story ...no details...and was off on another story about PM Harper. No tears or kleenex.

Gee, I wouldn't want to shake Jacko's hand after this.

With political pork you get egg roll.

Actually, upon reflection, I've come to understand this is how Jack's going to pay for his election promises.

He's going to legalize prostitution AND pot, and tax them as much as he can. He figures he can balance his budget based on all the new US tourism dollars..

The true leftista will laugh this off as Jack being jack. But a lot of moderate liberals who convinced pollsters that Jack was the real deal may think twice. All this story needs to do is lower NDP support by a percentage or two to have a real impact. Mission accomplished!

And if the lamestream try to turn this into a SunNews story, well Palideau will owe Ailes big-time.

While many on the left and even on the right regard prostitution as a victimless crime, many feminist leftists regard prostitutes as victims and their "johns" as victimizers. Now that one of their own has been found financially supporting prostitution, I don't think this will go over very well with the feminist component of the NDP.

The first rule of jackoff's massage club is there is no massage club...

For anyone who is going to say this is just slime reporting, just tell me one thing:

What would be happening right now if this was Stephen Harper ?

CBC now covering story

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canadavotes2011/story/2011/04/29/cv-election-layton.html

albeit without mentioning the seedy details and only Layton's rebuttal.

Well CTV ran a thorough story on this just 5 minutes ago.

Robertson: 'Robert, there's a 'story out there' that NDP leader Jack Layton was mentioned in a police officer memorandum. What can you tell us about this?

Fife: Lloyd, Sun Media is saying that Jack Layton was found at a massage parlour 16 years ago. He was unaware that alleged illicit activities took place there, and his wife Olivia knew about the incident and stated nothing wrong had happened.'

Robertson: 'Alright, well moving on then Bob, ....'

How utterly stupid do they think we are?

There are more questions that need to be asked here other than "Jack, why were you naked as a jaybird"?

It would be interesting to know if anyone was charged that night. If so, who and why? And if there were charges, why did Layton NOT get charged? Political interference? More digging by the press is required.

Sid - EXACTLY! Indeed what would be happening? Hmmm.

My guess is that lots of people on Parliament Hill have known about this for a long time. Now that Jack has risen past the point of being a joke it comes out.

Expect more of the same this weekend.

I'll probably be laughing so hard by Monday that I'll have to be hospitalized.

You can't always trust the Urban dictionary,but then again,--- http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=layton

Jack is Tragically Hip.

*What should I expect during my visit?
The treatment is done on a low massage table or on the floor.

Unlike other forms of massage, with shiatsu no massage oil is applied, so you remain fully clothed during the treatment. You may be asked to bring comfortable clothing to wear.*

http://altmedicine.about.com/od/massage/a/shiatsu.htm

Maybe a calming massage will help you with that, Trent?

"... his wife Olivia knew about the incident and stated nothing wrong had happened...."

Ah yes. Reciting from the Book of John...

So Jack Layton admitted to it. He was caught naked in a Chinese massage parlour during a police raid. He wasn't caught doing anything illegal, and was let go. No crime was committed, but it's still a very sleazy thing for a so-called 'respectable' politician to do.

Why is Sun TV News being blamed? They didn't get naked massages from a young Chinese girl while married.

Happy Birthday Mr. Prime Minister Harper, Happy Birthday too you!
He does need something to make him laugh tomorrow.

It is sobering to realize that a far worse move would be to picket an abortion clinic.

"I'll take the BBQ Pork, Mr. Layton."

A lot of people were pulling for Jack. Some more than others.

Project Cobra, 26 bawdy houses busted in china town

I guess Jack (me-off) hasn't heard of the home delivery service known as "Feels on Wheels".

Not much chance you'd get busted there..... except, of course, for Olivia.

Wow!
I go to dinner and this new thread has 192 comments?
I gotta catch up.

Can you imagine the uproar and media frenzy if this was SH?

And you thought Harper had a firm grip on his Caucus.

I wonder about the cops not charging him, or at least not hauling him in and embarassing him at the time. If they all did hate him because they thought he was "anti-cop", why didn't they?

Of course, I'm a cynical person.

Jack keeps Vegas mom around his caucus for rub and tugs.

I cease to check SDA for one measly evening, and this happens. Better late than never, and a better reason to check SDA religiously every 10 minutes!

Since every paycheque Jack has ever collected has come from the public purse could this little episode called "Pulled Pork"?

On a slightly different note I can understand why the cops kept a lid on this at the time. EJackolayton was a cop bashing city councilor at the time of his 'exposure'. Had the cops brought the matter to the public attention at the time it would have appeared that the cops were targeting Ejackolayton in order to silence the crusading social activist.

The question that comes to my mind is how often did Jack avail himself of such services? The chances of getting caught the only time there is pretty minimal.

Asian Masseuse: Meeth-tah Laytoon, how you rike chiatzu with happy ending?
Green light is on, yes?

So, does this incident get the NDP more of the Chinese vote in B.C. or less?
(by the way is it a good thing that SUN TV is acting like the American Media here visa vi Obama in casting the aspersions as a proxy for the CPC?)

Anyone following some of these "journalists" on twitter? Wow these guys just don't want to report this stuff do they? If this was Stephen Harper it'd be right up their alley and even they can't deny that.

New article up in the Toronto Sun:

"What Jos Chiu remembers most is the sign. A long, red, illuminated sign with big white letters: MASSAGE. The sign was for years vertically attached to number 787 Dundas St. W.

"It was a massage parlour, but no ordinary massage parlour.

"It was the kind suspected by police as one of the many in the city where women were offering the 'extra service' of masturbation -- a place known on the street as a rub-and-tug...."

(...)

"'It was a big vertical sign on the side of the building,' said Chiu, who has owned and operated a custom T-shirt shop across the street for over 20 years.

"'It was a Chinese bookstore for a while downstairs, but upstairs it was a mystery..."

The whole thing here.

Hey, cut the guy a break, he rode his bike. A right-winger would have driven.

Ewww. Just ewww. The thought of a naked Jack! is just too much. Anyone got any spare brain bleach?

The comments on this story at the CBC are amusing! They're steaming mad at Sun News for breaking the story, however oddly they don't seem to mind the CBC reporting it later. weird isn't it?

It was innocent.
Jack was only there to share with the young lady a bowl of cream of sum dum jon.

"When the policeman and his partner walked into a second-floor room at the Toronto massage parlour, they saw an attractive 5-foot-10 Asian woman who was in her mid-20s and the married, then-Metro councillor, lying on his back in bed." Not many Asian "girls" that tall. Probably a TV.

So... if Jack helped you off a horse...

"I'm naked and we're just eatin' some KFC, officer"

Oz - that's better than a bowl of Cream of sum yung gai.

Hey, I made my own video of 787 Dundas St. West:

Where Jack! got whacked - 787 Dundas St. W., Toronto

Was he really "in bed"? Them Trawna chakra-releasin' parlours sure sound fancy.

The comments at CBC are hilarious. These people are calling Jack a nice man etc. WAKE THE HELL UP. This guy likely paid for a sexual act while married here people ok and he's running for the job of prime minister.

We now know where the " We can do this " slogan actualy started.

As a concerned citizen I'm not really sure the Endy Pees are ready to govern yet.
Baby wipes...er, baby steps, baby steps.

Well, the last time I was in a whore house...

Gawd, is this funny.

Notice how all the reports mention that people were videotaped and blackmailed? You're telling me that a Toronto councilor was in house and it didn't occur to the Triads running the joint to set up a camera? I bet Sun News has the video. They want to hear all the denials from the NDP camp first, and then it will be 'released' as it were.

Well, Jack said this week that he invited greater media scrutiny.

Welcome to the big leagues.

@kady's head would completely explode if there is video. please let this happen.

The fact that SunTV is even reporting this trash is enough to dismiss them for the time being as a serious news station. Why the hell should I care about what he's doing with some paid for flesh back in '96? It's what he's going to do to me and millions of Canadians that's the problem!

"The campaign also released a letter that Brian Iler, a Toronto-based lawyer representing the NDP, had sent to Sun News ahead of the report.

“The facts are that Mr. Layton had obtained a massage from a massage therapist, but had no knowledge whatsoever that the therapist’s location may have been used for illicit purposes,” Iler wrote in the letter, which also warned the network against publishing anything that would insinuate wrongdoing. "

http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/politics/article/983321--layton-camp-in-damage-control-over-massage-parlour-allegations?bn=1

I don't get it, they knew the story was going to be published before it was published and had time to get a lawyer to whip up a letter?

How did they know?

Everyhting is fair in love and "wor."

Perfect!
Let it be so.

The sun would have asked Jack for comment on this before running with it to make sure there wasn't some kind of crazy misunderstanding because they could be sued for libel. The fact they confirmed the story means that they were free to publish.

And sorry defenders but this man is running for Prime Minister ok. He claims to stand up for women's rights etc. If a national political figure is caught naked in a bawdy house you report on that ok. If you think that's ok behaviour great go vote for him but personally and let me be clear here I WOULD NEVER PAY A WOMAN FOR WHATEVER JACK DID IN THAT bawdy house married or not and I would expect someone running my country wouldn't either.

Nope, I'm pushing this "...quiddick" thing as hard as I can. "Masturquiddick."

BTW anyone else give up on following coyne? Gawd. It makes me sick now.

"How did they know?"

Sun news told them - gave them a heads up ... gave them time to get some responses together.

Hmmm on NNW:

"Layton camp denies alleged massage parlour incident"

Actual article headline:

"Layton camp in damage control over massage parlour allegations"

With no actual denial in the article. If anything, they're confirming it:

"“The facts are that Mr. Layton had obtained a massage from a massage therapist, but had no knowledge whatsoever that the therapist’s location may have been used for illicit purposes,” Iler wrote in the letter, which also warned the network against publishing anything that would insinuate wrongdoing. "

libertariansarereallreallysmart @1:17 - yes, of course you're fine with prostitution. I don't care at all about the state of Jack's marriage either. Listen carefully: This. Will. Damage. The. NDP. As a libertarian, you want that.

Furthermore, I have a few questions I wouldn't mind answered about the massoosie's age, immigration status and relationship to her employers. It's a bad world out there.

Quo Pro QuidDicK?

Try typing "Jack Layton" into Google. "Jack Layton Massage" is the option that pops up as soon as you type in the 'L'. Not good optics.

Life, liberty and the pursuit of a happy ending will be the new NDP creed.

Loved his "but I didn't inhale" excuse that he didn't know what kind of establishment he was in.

The fact he rode his bicycle to this "treatment" was all I needed to confirm the story was true! It's as if the story wrote itself!

This is a "wedge" issue. The revelation won't bother the younger immoral relativists who make up the NDP big city base
(a la the Bill Clinton scandal) but it will be a major wake up call to wavering Liberals who were thinking of voting NDP
and others of the sanctimonious superiority set who will now be repelled.

Premature Jack Election?

I am with James. The fact is this guy is running to be Prime Minister of this country and has acted as though he has a natural halo over his head. Now we find that he is not as perfect as he claims. Will his party close ranks about him or will they treat him the same as Maxime Bernier, Helena Geurgis, Bev Oda.
In the meantime Jack tell us where you get your halo polished.

Sid (For anyone who is going to say this is just slime reporting, just tell me one thing:

What would be happening right now if this was Stephen Harper ?)

I totally agree there is a double standard, but not to take it into account means that any attempt to use the story to discredit Mr. Layton will backfire. If anything, it has generated more sympathy for Jack. An iffy encounter way back in 1996? If that's the best anyone can come up with, it's pretty lame.

And yes I know. If it had been Stephen Harper, the media would absolutely crucify him. But it's about Jack, and that makes all the difference.

Right now, everyone is enjoying the jokes and puns, and some of them are very clever. But actually it's reflecting very badly on the Conservatives who weren't even responsible for breaking the story. I think Mr. Harper should very quickly say something denouncing this sort of attack.

Does anyone even care about the election on Monday? This is SOOO good! I don't know if I'll ever stop laughing!

Harper and the CONtempt party will pay for this smear.

The possibility that there exists a video of Layton receiving the services of this young lady is extremely serious. The possibility that it is in the hands of criminal gangs is even more serious and what is extremely disturbing is that this man wants to be the leader of this country. He is wide open to undue influence and is therefore unfit to be in a position of power. He is honor bound to resign immediateley, that is if he has any honor.

"no knowledge whatsoever that the therapist’s location
may have been used for illicit purposes"

let's... despite occam's razor... just accept jack at face
value here.

lemme see... you can't tell a shabby whorehouse from
a medical clinic... yeah, that's the guy i want running the
country.

ps -- the cops weren't there for a noise complaint... they
were looking for, and i quote... "underage asian hookers."

Rita, this story isn't about Harper. Do you think the leaders of the other parties would be asking for everyone to remain calm if it were Harper that was caught in a rub 'n tug/steam and cream?

Fife and Criag and Jane would have had massive cornaries from their collective orgasms. They would have claimed Harper left his Hummer (pardon the pun) idling and double parked outside for the duration of his appointment and refused to leave a tip and kicked a puppy on his way out.

Seriously, give your head a shake. This wasn't a press release from CPC headquarters. Do you apply the same standard when CTV/CBC announce their lastest "gotcha" against Harper? Do you plead to the leadership of the LPC/NDP to take the high road? PU-LEEZE!

How is this a smear. You make it sound like it was just a lapse in judgement or something. Going into a known bawdy house and stripping naked face up on a bed and then who knows what happens. I'm not saying anything happened here I'm just saying he was naked face up on a bed here in a known bawdy house.

If you think people that do that kind of thing would make great prime ministers then I say great. But I can tell you as the most partisan hack if it came out that Stephen Harper did something like this I would demand his resignation. I'm serious.

BTW anyone remember the G8 AG report partial leak? What a smear!

An iffy encounter way back in 1996?

The place was a common bawdy house raided twice in a 2 week period by Metro Police.
Vladimir Layton was a T.O. city councilor for that exact district and he didn't know he was in the House of the Rising Sun?
He didn't know what goes on in the district that elected him, really?
Come on, rita, I hope that other voters can connect the dots a bit better.

"The revelation won't bother the younger immoral relativists who make up the NDP big city base..." -Sgt Lejaune

I don't know. This was a white man caught with a non-white woman (I assume) in what appeared to be an ugly and possibly exploitative situation. The NDP's younger, browner, immigrant demographic might be a little more disturbed by this than the lilywhite, well-established Andrew Coyne.

So was he really naked?

well, I would hope the feminists would be screaming about this one.....*crickets*

So was he really naked?

Is Helen Reddy?
That's what the po-po official report said.

"So was he really naked?"

yup.. but it was totally innocent you see, he had a pulled groin.

This incident highlights how much the MSM has pulled the wool over Canadians eye's for years. Protecting the likes of Jack Layton. And god knows who or what else. Harper must go over the top or this country's gonna blow.

.@Kady I guess all i can say is I'd rather be caught naked in a massage parlour than fully clothed working for SunNews

libertariansaresmarter, it's completely appropriate for Sun TV to report this story. Although SDA regulars don't need any convincing, it shows the average Canadian that Taliban Jacks judgment is non-existent. We know that he was caught once by the police in a "massage" parlor which had links to criminal gangs. He was informed by the police that individuals were filmed secretly for purposes of blackmail I very much doubt that this was Jacks only visit for a "massage".

Perhaps the triads have already used video evidence against him - this might explain his support of uncontrolled immigration. All it would take would be a video of him with a 16 year old and he'd probably do anything to prevent that evidence from going to the police.

The above is speculation, but given the potential risks of having him in a position of power, SH should be asking for him to resign immediately.

If houses of prostitution could legally exist (which I support BTW) then I'd have no problem with him frequenting one -- that would be a problem to be worked out between him and his wife. He could have availed himself of the services of a legal escort service and I'm sure the women that work for escort services perform "shiatsu massage". I'm sure for an additional fee the escort could have arrived at Jacks doorstep on a bicycle. Instead he choses to go to a place run by criminals and likely exploiting illegal immigrants.

The association with criminals even more indirectly than Jack did was used against a Conservative politician and this made news for weeks. This incident deserves all the publicity it can get.

"This incident deserves all the publicity it can get."

I'm sure this will be international over the weekend. ...and the rest of Canadian media will make the story about how mean Sun News is.

What about getting video of prominent politicians with global warming scam artists? That is a much larger scale crime than prostitution.

People understand something this simple, naked man with underage girl. What about selling out our entire economy to a foreign country that is flooding our markets with cheap junk and getting our resources at a discount while we jack up our taxes to pay for the middleman's billionaire lifestyle?

Anyone want to take that one on? Youtube?

See, this election was always about nothing. As if Iggy's residence in Boston was some big deal. All our politicians are basically bought and paid for by the Chinese -- and we need to understand that and get our country back from them.

Or we could just pretend it's getting warmer and warmer and warmer ... right Manitoba?

This incident is troubling.

The man is a security threat. You _can not_ have a head of state as a security threat. It's very bad joss.

I was over at both the TorStar and CBC sites reading the comments. There are a lot of people saying that it was a long time ago,forget about it.

Tom Lukwiski made some comments at a party 15 years beforehand about gays,and Jack Layton wanted him removed from his position as parliamentary secretary. I don't think Jack will remove himself from anything over this hooker incident. Olivia should remove him though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZFeQB8XCJE

Oz - apparently it was a hetro establishment. In other words no, it wasn't a house of the rising son....

So, let's get this straight. If a conservative of any stripe is caught anywhere near a whore house, it's the end of the career NO MATTER the circumstance. But if it's an NDP politician the Toronto Police Service suppress this? Hmm, there's a deeper scandal here than meets the eye.

Move along, conservatives nothing to see here - we can't throw you under a bus so it's all good.

The important queston, how young was the girl who eased his muscle pain and was she legally in Canada. A whole new meaning to the Lib's stripper gate.

What are the chances that the only time that Jack went for a massage the place got busted? Jack has either incredibly bad luck or he made frequent trips. Hopefully the Sun News will ask him or Olivia about any other' appointments'and are appointments really necessary at these 'private health-care' facilities?

"Massage parlour ‘a mystery’"

"TORONTO -

What Jos Chiu remembers most is the sign. A long, red, illuminated sign with big white letters: MASSAGE. The sign was for years vertically attached to number 787 Dundas St. W.

It was a massage parlour, but no ordinary massage parlour."

http://www.torontosun.com/2011/04/29/massage-parlour-a-mystery

Longest thread I have ever read.
Whoever mentioned Libby Davies made me shudder with that mental picture. Ewwww

It could all be settled if the "regestered massage therapist" came forward and said it was a legatimate massage. I am sure a "professional" would have his name on record, address, time, date, area of treatment, number of visits etc.... and a business licance in building regestered in city hall.

There; now it is up to Jack to get that information public as soon as possable. If he can not, then let the press have its way. He might become "religious" right now, "praying" that she come forward and tell what happened. I am quite sure the police have her name on record in the same police report.

These are the questions that must be answered - yet the MSM will not ask one of these questions - except perhaps Sun TV.

What I feel is the most important point of the story is why the police where there in the first place.
They raided the "establishment" as part of an effort to crack down on illegal activities, such as extortion and human smuggling.
The police would have a very good motivation for keeping reports of a raid quiet so the gangs would not go underground. But seeing as we may have legislation pending in parliament dealing with human smuggling it serves the public interest to know which politicians could be compromised because of the possible existence of a compromising vid.

No wonder why the NDP are against Human Smuggling and Harpers crack down on crime. It would ruin their evenings. When Jack now mouths off about how Minorities are getting screwed in Canada, he speaks with experience. I wonder how much of the 1M in Taxdollars that Olivia and Jack-Off Layton spend on living expenses went for Jack's Comfort Girls...

Just what we need: a Prime Minister with such poor judgement that he puts himself at risk of being extorted. In a democracy, what fool would choose to give power to one with such demonstrably poor judgement? Do you want this man having the power to order your child into military action?

My guess, and it is only a guess, is that this story is a Librano job: brilliant doing it through Sun - Sun is vilified and CPC gets the blame.

Regardless of how the story broke, or who broke it, nobody so foolish should be handed the keys to our war machine, let alone make laws.

Anyone remember Bob Coates?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Coates_%28politician%29

it's all been done before; 'Citizen Kane'.

life imitating art .......

Of PET's Cemetery and Disgrace.

Arguably, Taliban Jack LaytoNDP's portrait will be hung elsewhere along with that of Hazen Argue.

MIA: Jack Layton and Hazen Argue.

"Argue is the only former leader of the CCF or NDP whose portrait is not on the walls of NDP headquarters."

Argue jumped into bed with PET; PET appointed Argue a Senator; the end.

"Senator Argue faced disgrace in 1988 when criminal charges of fraud were filed against him but he died before the case came to court."

http://www.economicexpert.com/a/Hazen:Argue.htm

The more I think about it, the more it looks like a Liberal plant.

This would have been a great Sword of Damocles hanging over the NDP in a coalition. Too bad for the Liberals that their own leader is so unpalatable that they never got to use it under the cover of a caucus meeting.

So, faced with 18% in the polls, the Liberal war room goes nuclear: Releasing the story to Sun TV, where it'll be assumed it's a Tory story.

Result? Liberals bounce back, stave off destruction, and live to fight another day.

So that's why Jack's limping around with that cane.

"Sun news told them - gave them a heads up ... gave them time to get some responses together"

as opposed to how the rest of the MSM would just run with a psuedo scandal and then go to the CPC for a "statement" or even better - question the PM about something in front of a rally crowd.

Yeah - our upstanding MSM - always taking the high road!!

Andycanuck,

I'm afraid this election could have a HIPPY ending

Get out and vote, people.

Is it too late to add a question to the CBC Compass online Liberal vote catcher?

"If your party leader exchanges money for hand jobs from asians, would this make you more or less of a Liberal?"

Was there a city license for that location at that time indicating type of business?

If we are to believe Jack or Olivia, then surely, there will be a record for that building issuing a license for a massage parlor.

facts are terrible things.

The main media are trying their best to flush this story, but the media from other countries will not.

Oh it's all just a misunderstanding, according to CBC. He was getting a professional massage at a registered massage clinic!

I'm not sure what would make me happier about a leaked surveillance video... Layton being removed from the Canadian political landscape, or the MSM tripping over themselves, trying to explain their cover-up of the story.

Did Jack ensure that the place was unionized?

Or that there were no illegal(slave traffic women) or underagers?

It's not about prudery: this was the two-facer who called for lap dancing to be banned in (straigh) Toronto strip clubs.

It's called Karma.

Eskimo (Rita, this story isn't about Harper. Do you think the leaders of the other parties would be asking for everyone to remain calm if it were Harper that was caught in a rub 'n tug/steam and cream?)

I'm not disagreeing with you. But I think the way the media will handle it, it might work out in Jack's favor. That's all. I don't care if Jack is embarrassed and it would be much better if his party would fade into irrelevance. But in this topsy-turvy world, I think the Conservatives need to be ready to do damage control. There are lots of people who will want to shoot the messenger--even if they've got the wrong messenger. Have you not noticed how many Canadians blame everything on Harper no matter how far-fetched? This event will work in their narrative. Mind you, those people already hate Harper so it doesn't matter. But for those sitting on the fence and looking for some precipitating factor to make a decision...who knows how they will react?

I find the story that the Laytons lived in subsidized accommodation while pulling their generous salaries a lot more compelling--but I guess that doesn't resonate as much as being caught with your pants down in a nookie factory.

Jack Laydown hoped to come up in the polls.

I guess he pulled it off.

Excellent summary from Rita above. I like Kate's pithy remark also. Well said, ladies!

We need a government with looser immigration so everybone can have more affordable services close to home.

Thanks for your comments Rita. The difference between Sun News breaking this story and CTV/CBC with their "gotcha" pieces against the CPC is that the LPC/NDP enjoy not even having to lift a finger for breaking news that will harm the CPC. THe MSM operates at arms length from the left wing parites giving the anti Harper parties the much important "plausible deniability" if the crap hits the fan.

Personally I'd rather not have to pardon Jack's indiscretion in hope of not offending a potentail voter. I don't think I want someone who would excuse his behavior as a member of my party. It's been said here many times before that pleasing your enemy doesn't make him your friend.

And YES, let's have a look at Jack and Olivia's subsidy scam. Therein lies the true definition of their characters.

Here we have Jack supporting the gun registry and he goes shooting off in a dozen different directions.

James and dance, Coyne's tweet was also the last straw for me. In fact my subscription renewal to Maclean's was in the to do file, but I was already wavering in renewing and this was the last straw. I wrote cancelled on the bill with an explanation and put it in the mail.

Excellent point rita, but we now have Sun News to keep the others more honest. Jack and Olivia's subsidized housing should be front and center, but they were given a pass by the media. We already have seen Coyne showing his true colours.

This looks good on Comrade Jack and his comeuppance was way overdue.

"... his wife Olivia knew about the incident and stated nothing wrong had happened...."

Kinda makes me wonder where they met...

Hmm! Didn't know it was subsidized housing.
Hmm! Didn't know Scholtice Clinic was private.
Hmm! Didn't know it was a bawdyhouse.
Now we know why we've called him "Jack Off" all these years.

BTW, either above or in one of the other threads someone posted the definition of a shiatsu massage and for shiatsu the client keeps their clothes on for the entire massage. (Although it's recommended that the client wear loose clothing.)

I also think this story was leaked by the liberals.

Great comments! I, however, can't see what the problem is. Jack thought it was a sperm bank and he was just making a donation. Probably picked up a $20 for his time.

Typical lefty - just won't do a damn thing himself.

Now we know why he's called "Smiling Jack".

I don't think that the Cons or the Libs are behind the release of this info. There are undoubtably plenty of Cops who not-so-fondly recall Jack and Olivia's tenure at Toronto City Hall and might harbour animosity towards them.

Radio ad Layton to clean up Ottawa. His tools for the "JOB" young girls and lots of kleenx.

Was Jack getting whacked off during company time?

Ah...Kate's hyenas have been thrown some fresh meat. You guys can't win a policy debate or with your leader, so you resort to the gutter. I'm not surprised. Oh well, this won't affect anything on election day. :-)

Hey, this just makes Jack! seem more Kennedyesque. He's got the election in the bag now!

Here's more on the arrogance and opportunism of Jack and his partner in rank hypocrisy:

The Toronto Star: Saturday, November 6, 2010

“Layton and Chow: The million-dollar power couple

“OTTAWA—Toronto's Jack Layton and Olivia Chow are Ottawa's million-dollar couple.

“According to recently released House of Commons records, the NDP leader and his long-time wife, Chow, who is MP for Trinity Spadina, charged Canadian taxpayers about $1.16 million in MP expenses last year for running their offices, living in Ottawa and paying for associated travel costs.

“’Yes, it is (a lot of money) and we appreciate the compensation that's been established . . . but it is a lot less than the leaders of two of the other political parties,’ Layton, who is MP for Toronto Danforth, told the Toronto Star. . . .

“To stay in their home away from home, they charged a total of $42,478 for accommodation and per diem expenses.

“Chow was reimbursed $17,010.20, while Layton charged the maximum of $25,468 [but they live together, so why did they BOTH take the allowance?].”

Here is the bottom line. Anyone who can screw over their mate won't hesitate to screw over every one.

Laws covering Common Bawdy Houses, like the one Jack Layton was in:

http://tinyurl.com/3h3gkhu

The police should have arrested him just for being there.
And remember the police report said he was naked so they would have be totally justified and probably gotten a conviction.

Just asking.

Why didn’t Jack use this* as a rejoinder to the “allegations” of “smear”?

This is a more compelling case for Jack than the one-word response: "smear".

“*My head exploded that year.”

Would that not have garnered sympathy?

OTOH, perhaps Jack remembered where sympathy is found in the dictionary.

http://www.gendercide.org/case_montreal.html

Having this on his resume disqualifies him from being the Prime Minister. IF he is in a position to go to the GG and claim that he has the confidence of the house, the GG will be perfectly correct to tell him that because of this black mark on his resume he cannot govern in the best interests of Canada. He is compromised and subject to undue influence. He is the laughing stock of the world and will harm Canada's international reputation. Layton CANNOT be the Prime Minister.

To the people who think the CPC needs to do damage control: SUN NEWS is NOT the CPC.

They are a news outlet and are not an organ of the Conservative Party of Canada and the people who work for SUN TV are not candidates, MPs, or otherwise officially affiliated with the CPC.

SUN NEWS is simply doing what all the other NEWS organs do, the only difference is that this story hurts the Left.
Shockingly new idea, I know, but get used to it.

MSM and Dipper partisan message..............."It was only a massage, and it happened so long ago....nothing to see here, move along.......Jack's an entertaining speaker, just like Obama...what's not to like?"

Licensed legitimate businesses which provide therapeutic massage, by college trained and licenced
Registered Massage Therapists, are never called "Massage Parlours" They are referred to as clinics.
They are professionally run and have their licences, and the qualifications of the therapists in clear and prominent view for all patients to see.

Juxtaposing their coverage of this with their coverage of that and showing them for the hypocrites that they are.

With the years of history and spin those 2 news outlets have, such a feature could be a regular part of SUN TV’s programing.

I wonder how the lesbo and wymyns groups feel about their dear leader abusing innocent young Asian gals.

Paging Judy Rebbick, paging Judy Rebbick.

That's one big ugly lez that has NEVER been at a loss for words. Perhaps Sun News could chase her down, and her comrades for comments.......

Film of the potential head of Canada's Government in the hands of the Triads or more than likely in the hands of China itself by now.

Cancel his security clearances until CSIS has done a thorough investigation of this. This is bad news for Canada if he gets any power at all.

lets hope his erection massage had a better "happy ending" than his election message.

Busted at 1:30am, naked at a massage parlour and Olivia thinks it is OK.

She is as stupid as Jack is mendacious.

Maybe Jack was/is being blackmailed. That would explain subsidized housing.

Besides Handjobs by illegal immigrants Jack's Other Hidden Agenda...Apr 29, 2011 – 8:28 PM ET | Last Updated: Apr 29, 2011 8:35 PM ET

NDP’s hidden constitution opposes profits, backs ‘social ownership’

With the NDP’s public election platform already packed with more than 200 extreme, unworkable, radical and mostly undesirable promises, it might surprise some to learn that Jack Layton’s current power trip packs at lot more baggage under the floorboards.

How much more can there be? They’ve got plans for what amounts to a 10¢-a-litre cap-and-trade tax on gasoline, doubled pension plan contributions, corporate tax increases, plus a long list of plans and schemes to newly regulate pharmaceuticals, banking, oil, food, telecom, railways and many other industries. As for monetary policy, not mentioned in the platform but recently the subject of comment, Mr. Layton says that he wants to maintain an “arm’s length” relationship with the Bank of Canada, although he apparently at the same time intends to jawbone the bank over interest rates and the value of the dollar.

This is all bad enough, but now let’s have a rummage through the baggage rack and under the floorboards. We’re looking for plans Mr. Layton didn’t mention in the platform, long-standing NDP agenda items, ideological positions they don’t talk much about but which underlie everything the party does. Does the NDP have any “hidden agendas”?

The CBC’s Leslie MacKinnon recently reported on the NDP’s official constitution, a 2003 document that specifies why the NDP exists. It turns out the NDP constitution is itself a hidden agenda.

First, here’s a core statement from the preamble outlining the “principles of democratic socialism” that guide the party:

That the production and distribution of goods and services shall be directed to meeting the social and individual needs of people within a sustainable environment and economy and not to the making of profit;
To modify and control the operations of the monopolistic productive and distributive organizations through economic and social planning. Towards these ends and where necessary, the extension of the principle of social ownership….
The New Democratic Party is proud to be associated with the democratic socialist parties of the world and to share the struggle for peace, international co-operation and the abolition of poverty.

Wow, you guys should be ashamed of all this dirty talk and smearing. This is so low I wouldn't touch it with a 3 inch somewhat flacid pole (well at least thats what the underage tranny asian hooker told me!)

weeeeeee this is fun!!!! Don't let the msm bury this. I already noticed on CTV website you had to dig to find the story.

I could just see all the Uber-Militant Lesbian & Wymyn's groups having a group orgasm is they found Stephen Harper hiring an immigrant prostitute in a whorehouse run by a Triad.

As usual, if it isn't a pro-state control of our lives and redistribution of wealth party they won't support it. They're as phony as their strap-on.

Jack Layton is just living the Leftie mantra:

live off other people's money, do what I want, take no responsibility.

cant wait to see Jack and Olivia on sun news again with a 12 pack of beer ???

song:
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)
What you say?
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.)
(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.)
feel free to change the lyrics

Can you imagine a PM Layton and Berlusconi having a bunga-bunga confrence? Yeah that'll improve Canada's standing on the world stage

Who cares? If Jack Layton was a eunuch, I still wouldn't vote for him.

The paperwork for libel lawsuits is being prepared. The Sun will have the crap sued out of it, as will blog sites and individuals posting libelous material. Enjoy.

David Bowie - Little China Girl

That song's been running through my head since I read this.

LOL

rove:

Are you writing as an NDP insider?

Or from your own fantasies?

What is libelous about the facts?

Jack Layton found naked in a bawdy house by Toronto police is the story - fact he wasn't charged does not absolve him of any wrong doing- either criminally or morally.
It would be best if the CBC just gave Canadians all the facts and not filter the story so Canadians can decide for themselves.
If one question has yet to be answered for all Canadians and possibly for Olivia Chow as well - Why were you naked?
The question that may have been answered for Canadians is, we possibly now have an explanation for that lavish expense account that surpassed any other MP or leader.

Wasn't it Chretien, that sage of Liberalism, who stated theat 'the proof is the proof ---' Naked on a bed in a massage parlor at 1.45 am? His legitamacy is shot to pieces.

Naked on a bed in a massage parlor at 1.45 am?

2nd time it's been claimed that it was after midnight.(links anyone?)
If true, it's an important point.
If false, it could be troubling.

Links people?

"I knew about This appointment, as I always do". Olivia Chow's statement. How many other appointments were there, Olivia?

If there is no libel, there is nothing to worry about, right?

And on another note, people have to undress to get a massage.

I knew about This appointment, as I always do". Olivia Chow's statement.....
honey can you book me another appt at the same massage parlour,any time around 2 am works..to funny and it looks good on them

Help wanted. New leader.Apply A.S.A.P. N.D.P.of Canada.

Where is the appointment book and if this was an innocent appointment how many times did Jack go back for more innocent appointments?
Inquiring minds would like to know.

people have to undress to get a massage.

With some massage techniques they do have to get undressed to a point.
Shiatzu is not one of those massage techniques that requires any disrobing at all let alone complete nudity which isn't required for any massage technique.

I wish to issue a disclaimer:

I do not believe that God interferes in elections, but I did pray yesterday that considering how serious the election of the NDP would be for Canada (reminding him of the disastrous Bob Rae reign in Ontario), would He allow something to break that would help prevent PM Layton from gaining power.

That's all I said, your Honour. I never said massage parlour, naked body, or wet kleenex.

" shiatsu "

Had to look it up.

Substitute dish served by Chinese Restaurants when they're out of Chownochew...

I have heard 9:30 at night, not the middle of the night. There's enough here, no need to embellish the facts.

I think it's time to interview the "rubber", wonder what she might have to say. Or did her bank account suddenly get bigger??

Overall though I don't get it. I don't always agree with some of the government's decisions or some of their policies, no will ever will, but the alternatives to the CPC are scary (yes, I said it) even before this episode. What has happened to my country?

Just remember friends, the Left has set the rules on this stuff and the rule they set is this:

Its not the nature of the evidence that's important, its the seriousness of the allegation.

I must also say that I'm freakin' out with GLEE here, that finallyfinallyFINALLY we get a real scandal on this socialist piece of dog excrement that the MSM cannot bury, despite their best efforts. It is on TV, it is in the paper, it is on the radio, it is exploding on the internet.

LEFTIES, ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Just maybe when the vice dicks were cautioning ass naked Jack, they were addressing the wrong head.

...I imagine they're both bald!

Be sure to use Purell after shaking hands with Jack.

What else does cats meat kinsella have in his back pocket..?

Good actor by the way.

Ten to one he had some hand in, or knowledge of this.

And do you think the liebranos would make a deal with the chinese? Get the tape, sink taliban eJack? Could chairman maosthlong be a conduit? What's the payoff for rescuing the liebranos from obscurity? Hmmmm

~trappedintrudeaupia

The question I have is how can the Dippers work with the Libs in a coalition after this if the Dippers can see the Lib hand on the dagger behind this expose'?

Layton is not only a liar...he is a pathetic human being. Anybody that has to go to a whorehouse to get there jollies is a complete and utter loser. I also got a charge out of Olivia's defense...she is just as pathetic. Do they all think we are idiots out here in the real world. The blogosphere rules, you can't even fart and get away with it nowadays...politicians should pay attention here.

politicians should pay attention here.
~mot

They are.
That's why they're trying to regulate the net in such a facist way.

500,000 people in Tiannemen Square?
Now 5+ Million people can get together on the net and they can't even run them down with tanks.

The elite are aware and they are scared.
Their only hope is the general stupidity of the gereral masses and that fact has ME scared.

"Its not the nature of the evidence that's important, its the seriousness of the allegation."

Ooooh, scary...he wasn't arrested, he wasn't charged, and his wife doesn't care. Yes, that sure sounds serious.

The only people who care wouldn't vote NDP anyway, but there are quite a few people who see this as a Conservative smear and will vote for Jack, if only for that reason.

Why would they vote for Jack?
Is he their member of parliament?

Why would they see it as a Conservative smear?
This information comes from a news outlet not the Conservative Party?
This breaking news is because purportedly a retired Metro Police officer has just revealed some notes which some people think are newsworthy.
SUN TV reports this revelation, Canadians get to decide the importance of it for themselves.

Just SUN TV NEWS, not the Conservative party.
You're just shocked to experience what I and other conservatives have experience for, oh I don't know 10+years.(conservative estimate)

Boo hoo.

If the Liberals combine with the NDP in a coalition after this then it really brands them as sleazy and capable of stooping to a new low in order to be in power. The honor of Liberalism would be severly tarnished. The Liberals would be the junior partner and the junior partner to a discredited and untrustworthy leader.
On a side note it is too funny that Bob Rae and Ujjal Dosanjh switched horses to the Liberals to fulfill their ambition of becoming the Prime Minister. Way to climb on the wrong horse boys.

In the time-honoured traditions of American politics, where so much emphasis is placed on recognizing great historical events - e.g., "Abe Lincoln slept here" - isn't it time we Canadians followed suit?

Proposed plaque for 787 Dundas St. W. ....

"Jack Layton wet here."

C,mon Jack! If this was really "therapeutic massage" you were receiving, just produce your benefits plan claims for the "treatment".

OZ. You seem to care allot about the time. But it does not matter what time it is when you are asked the Question. Why if you are only getting a massage are you naked?

rove, rove, rove.

There will be no lawsuit because then there would be a trial and then there would be more questions and then and then and then.

Since the Toronto Sun has copies of the notes taken at the scene they probably have the upper hand.

So enjoy may day. Cheers

Tasha Kheiriddin on CBC got out the fact that the tip was offered first from Liberal sources. No link to CPC exists anywhere. The link is from cop to Sun News.

Ford Prefect at May 1, 2011 9:43 AM,

The time matters inasmuch as some posters here seem to be pegging the time at being after regular business hours and if that isn't true then it leaves other information surrounding the incident to charges of inaccuracy.(true or not)
