I’ve just sent the following to the CBC Ombudsman:
__________________________
I’m writing to file a complaint about CBC’s coverage of the Jack Layton/Massage story.
I’ve just listened to the noon news on CBC Radio2: it was altogether slanted in Mr. Layton’s favour. Not only were the most damaging details omitted—typical CBC strategy—but only Layton and his wife, Olivia Chow’s, responses—in full spin—were featured. And the CBC considers this professional journalism?
Here’s the SUN story: [I included the full text to the CBC. SDA readers may see the full text on the thread below this one.]
“By SAM PAZZANO ,Toronto Sun
“FIRST POSTED: FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 2011 9:18:44 EDT PM
“TORONTO – Jack Layton was found laying [sic] naked on a bed by Toronto Police at a suspected Chinatown bawdy house in 1996, a retired Toronto police officer told the Toronto Sun.
“The stunning revelation about the current leader of the New Democratic Party comes days before the federal election at a time when his popularity is soaring. . . .”
If this report is true, wouldn’t this situation put Mr. Layton in an extremely compromised position, security-wise? At the very least, it is the CBC’s obligation to check out the facts of the case—not deep six them. If this unsavoury revelation had anything remotely to do with Stephen Harper—whom the CBC treats with an utterly disrespectful and shameful disdain, as in persecution—this story would have legs—as on an octopus.
What else is new? I’ve been in contact with several CBC Ombudsmen over the decades: “Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose”. Could it be that things might be different this time? I’m hoping for change!
New NDP signs popping up in Chinatown in Toronto….they say:
“We’re pullin’ for Jack!”
There is a house on Dundas Street, so says the Toronto Sun
It’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And now we know Jack’s 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.
And those people who say this may hurt us: SUN TV NEWS is NOT the CPC.
It is a news outlet.
Conflating SUN TV NEWS with the CPC is inappropriate.
SUN TV NEWS is covering a story that hurts the Left, yes that is shockingly new.
Get used to it, enjoy it.
Iam actualy surprised No Media has dug up the dirt on how they lived when they were Toronto Councilers.
Living in Geared to Income Housing Under the guise It was Newly Imigrant Olivia’s mother’s house.
All this while both on Toronto City Council earning 100k combined(?)
Oh but for the downtrodden
And cant cut out CBC too much they actualy dug out the fact that the NDP has removed its constitution from their website, So I guess no-one will check out the fact the NDP party dont believe in Companies making Any Profit.
Since this story broke I have not been able to look at Layton without getting “that” visual. EWWWWW…
James 12:10
‘Did the place issue receipts? I.E., did Layton claim it on his medical expenses?’
James, what are you playing at? This incident is serious to all but the dim-witted. The character of a man who could be our PM has been revealed and it is wanting!
I did get a laugh from the journalistic requirements that you suggest are necessary for a legitimate news article. I think both of us know that meeting your requirements would constitute a ‘first’ in Canadian journalism.
There was another 15 year old incident by an MP that made the news, back in 2008.
Tom Lukiwskis drunken private video of him making disparaging remarks about a political opponent.
Anyone remember Tom Lukiwski being dragged through the mud with wall to wall coverage for weeks, until he tearfully begged for absolution from the media?
So there is a bit of a media template for old news by sitting members of Parliament – and considering that Lukiwski was not a party leader and potentially the next PM, perhaps this deserves even a bit more coverage than the old Lukiwski news
* Funny how the career politicians & mainstream journalists all lost their minds
over “child soldier” Omar Khadr… but, suddenly… nobody seems to give a
crap about “child prostitutes.”
*
I don’t believe this story will just go away. The difference this time is that SUN News is around.
IMO, no matter what its effect on the election, this really distasteful episode will be like a millstone around Layton’s neck. The Conservatives aren’t his only political enemies: like sharks, the Liberals smell blood too, and, if Jack moves up in the political food chain, this blood in the water is going to stick.
It couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.
Re: Grant 12:45
I do think this is a real story…don’t get me wrong. But if the story is going to continue, there needs to be more information –that’s sort of what I was driving at.
I’m crossing my fingers that they’ll be something new this morning and something else this evening.
Right now, it’s kinda easy for the rest of the media to just blow this off *ahem* as smear tactics, etc. Sun News needs to go above and beyond on this story (which I think they already have to some extent) and the best way they can do that is dominate the news cycle this weekend with ever more bits of the story.
This perfectly timed silver bullet can only come from a pissed off group of cop’s.
I suspect they have been fondling this story for years.

Vast numbers of voters literally know nothing about the NDP, Layton, or socialism. Their fascination with this new shiny object reminds me of the women fluttering about the early Trudeau mystique like hoards of moths.
Ridicule, puns, and bawdy humour are the surest fastest way to deflate this prig before his balloon gets any bigger. Screw decorum; no time left for PoliSci lectures.
(Getting rid of Canada’s commitments is exactly what Quebec relishes).
Thanks, ward. Here’s one of the many CBC reports about Tom Lukiwski. His “sin” was only words, 17 years before the CBC was all over him like a rash.
“Saskatchewan MP apologizes for anti-gay slur

“A Saskatchewan MP says that he’s sorry for homophobic comments he made on a videotape from 1991 that was released by the NDP on Thursday. [NB: the source of the story. Hmmm . . .]
“A flush-faced Tom Lukiwski offered his apologies to reporters in Ottawa, but would not answer questions on whether he would resign. . . .”

And what are Harper’s links to the (new Thule Society) Bilderberg group and that group attending the Cremation of Care ritualistic Giant Owl(possibly Satanic Moloch)ceremony at the Bohemian Grove??
Which is more dangerous??
Screw decorum; no time left for PoliSci lectures.
Actually, undermining your opponents character is a proven successful tactic taught to those who study PoliSci.
Fighting dirty when your opponent fights dirty is also demanded by Game Theory or you lose.
Let’s not forget why this election had to be called.
Remember what the opposition accused the CPC government of to bring this election about because they voted non-confidence on a SMEAR they made up.

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.
maz2@6:14 Thanks for reminding us of the Sidewinder Report – time for a trip down memory lane.
I see the Red Star has jumped on the bandwagon and is now endorsing the Dippers. Good to see that gang of lying hacks admitting their preference for Marxist stupidity openly.
Chinatown Brothel new marketing campaign……….
thursday night after 11pm
get the…. Jack special…..
Batb: deb coyne had pet donate his sperm – they were not lovers – at least that is the public story as I remember it.
2. There is now the possibility that mr. Layton could become the next prime minister of Canada. This story will not go away unless he fails in that bid.
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.
During either the 2006 or 2008 election some group asked Jack if he would shave his mustache off for charity or something and he made a very creepy reply about shaving it before a vacation so that he and Olivia could “try it out, hehehe”.
This story really isn’t a shocker, as Jack gave most people the creeps, this just confirms he’s a creep.
As far as whether or not it will hurt the NDP at the polls, it will. Only the most dedicated socialist will be able to vote for a sex addict, and this incident definitely proves that Jack Layton is a depraved sex addict.
One last thought; ask yourself if you could vote for your preferred party – whether it be Conservative, Liberal or Bloc – if the leader of that party was found to be a depraved sex addict who takes advantage of desperate young immigrant women? I know I couldn’t.
The Metro free newspaper’s front page of their weekend edition (last one before the election) is an NDP ad. It says in small letters that it is a paid political ad, but it comes across, to me at least, as part of the Metro campaign for the NDP. I’m sure it was planned that way weeks ago. Metro has a left-wing slant, just like the Edmonton Journal and other papers in that chain, and this really amounts to an endorsement by them of the NDP. The left-wing media is really pulling out all the stops for the NDP.
Please…please….a CPC majority on Monday otherwise Boogey Nights will be taking place at 24 Sussex starring Jack-where-are-my-clothes Layton.
If Layton ever has the opportunity to present himself as an option to the GG, the GG now has a resume that shows giving the reins of power to Layton would not be in the best interests of Canada. The BNA act calls for ‘Good Government’ and Layton’s ability to meet that requirement is in question. He is compromised and cannot be trusted. Layton’s halo is tarnished.
sex sells eh?
feel free to google ‘rob ford niece lingerie football league’.
Brief to NDP supporters: “When commenting in news threads/blogs, identify yourself first as a “Conservative/Liberal” and then add the NDP talking point… example: “I’m a conservative but I don’t believe that the media should be exposing the private lives of politicians even though they were cheating on their wives in illegal “rub-and-tug” establishments with Asian girls who were busted for prostitution only a week before… It’s believed that the girl in question was a union member and that Jack submitted receipts for his “massage” to OHIP through his civic benefit provider. After that, state how you’re voting for the NDP. Use some righteous indignation in your comments. Criticize the media for bringing the topic up.”
Ping, you’re more than a bit of a bonehead, aren’t you?
Last I heard, 1. there’s nothing illegal about lingerie football, and 2. she’s not running for public office. Neither of these applies in Layton’s case.
I would not be surprised however if you’ve got your application in for the job of tackling dummy. You’ve got the ‘dummy’ part down just fine.
BryanR, don’t be surprised about this. The media in Canada, particularly the Ottawa bureaus, routinely cover up this stuff. Every newspaper in Toronto every day reviews what’s on the police blotter. This was known and not discussed for years.
To be fair, what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?
Only thing is, this RCMP is female.
Mr. Harper has a lot on his plate. Pray for him.
To be fair, what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife…
If Laureen ever runs for office, we’ll ask that question…
johnbrooks
I assume you have some documentation to support that claim…something like a police officers notes or some such thing?
The timing on this thing was bad. It was a given that the legacy media was going to ignore this, but one weekend isn’t enough time for this to really percolate through the social media. Climategate did have a longlasting effect, but it took a few months for the news to get out. I’m guessing there are plenty of left-wing blogs written by people of colour who would be interested in exploring this further. It’s the story of an old white man who preaches morality and racial harmony who is caught apparently exploiting a young immigrant woman of colour while a white police force turns a blind eye, the white legacy media tries to cover things up, and largely white feminist groups pretend the whole thing never happened. It’s a good story, but these things take a while to develop on the blogs.

‘To be fair, what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?’
WTF!
to be fair??–to be fair?? Did you just make this up? Are you at home sobbing? Yes, your leader has frailties!
To be fair- you have all the attributes of a dipper.
This massage parlour is located in the riding of Trinity-Spadina. The MP for this riding must be fuming. Her name,Olivia Chow.
If I was Jack my main concern would be her,not what the public thinks.
Who says the NDP is a party with no new ideas?
From Ed Broadbent’s “ordinary working Canadians”, to E. Jack’s “ordinary jerking Canadians”.
That’s progressivism!
Jack did not just stumble into this parlour. He must have been aware of the illicit activities. The Mackenzie Institute did a research paper in 1995 concerning prostitution,strippers,lap-dancing,etc. Jack was mentioned as working closely with the club owners,and also having an unusual relationship with a former dancer. This may well have been above board and professional (no,not that way). However,it does indicate that Jack wss knowledgable about the sex trade at that time.
I contend that Jack went into that parlour under the cover of darkness with his eyes wide open. He was a married city councillor. Anyone in his position should have not come with-in a 100 yards of the place.This transgression shows an alarming lack of judgement and integrity,and likely some issues with women and his own pride.
Jack should do the right thing and resign to spare his family and his party any further public humiliation. I truly feel sorry for Olivia. Sun Media did not put a naked Jack in that bed. Jack did it on his own.
No one with functioning synapses could believe that everything was legitimate. However, one might call Jack “Teflon Jack” (aside from some rather rude titles) because nothing is allowed to stick to him. This man came from a well-off politically oriented family, rode to work on a bike while he used a limo to transport his paperwork, lived in subsidized housing and his policies will bankrupt (morally and financially) the average citizen. People should be mortified this crook was even allowed to run.
Amazing when you google search Jack L … As soon as you hit the L, how fast ‘massage’ comes up.
Shawn Taylor at 12:15
Check out page A6 of today’s National Post.
Layton was in a Triad Whorehouse getting a hand job from an immigrant prostitute at 9:30 at night. One of the same whorehouses that was part of an organized crime crackdown by Metro Vice.
How much influence does the tape of this hooker/client sex act have on Layton? How many times has it been used to leverage his cooperation? What will the government of China do with it? How badly will this tarnish the professional reputation and judgement of Canada’s elected officials?
Cut his security clearances and restrict his travel until CSIS has done a complete investigation.
what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?
Even IF that were true, since when are affairs illegal?
Being found to be in a common body house is illegal,(it’s a summary offence) clothes on or not.
“Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?”
This is not a rumour. This is one of your sticky night time fantasies about a woman far better looking than anyone you’ll ever get your clammy, hairy little palms on.
Although for sheer stupidity, I have to hand it to Ted’s comment about how this might help Layton. Yes, indeed, right now politicians are bugging their cop buddies to get something like this in their files to help them on to victory. What a maroon.

Ping, you’re more than a bit of a bonehead, aren’t you?
Last I heard, 1. there’s nothing illegal about lingerie football, and 2. she’s not running for public office. Neither of these applies in Layton’s case.
I would not be surprised however if you’ve got your application in for the job of tackling dummy. You’ve got the ‘dummy’ part down just fine.
BryanR, don’t be surprised about this. The media in Canada, particularly the Ottawa bureaus, routinely cover up this stuff. Every newspaper in Toronto every day reviews what’s on the police blotter. This was known and not discussed for years.
To be fair, what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?
Only thing is, this RCMP is female.
Mr. Harper has a lot on his plate. Pray for him.
Any buried inconvenient stories involving Nettie Wiebe?
http://www.Electionprediction.org is giving her the nod for some reason.
To be fair, what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife…
If Laureen ever runs for office, we’ll ask that question…

I assume you have some documentation to support that claim…something like a police officers notes or some such thing?
The timing on this thing was bad. It was a given that the legacy media was going to ignore this, but one weekend isn’t enough time for this to really percolate through the social media. Climategate did have a longlasting effect, but it took a few months for the news to get out. I’m guessing there are plenty of left-wing blogs written by people of colour who would be interested in exploring this further. It’s the story of an old white man who preaches morality and racial harmony who is caught apparently exploiting a young immigrant woman of colour while a white police force turns a blind eye, the white legacy media tries to cover things up, and largely white feminist groups pretend the whole thing never happened. It’s a good story, but these things take a while to develop on the blogs.
UPDATED: Just tried the test in the video.
Now, J-A-C suggests “Jack Layton Massage” 3rd from top.
Add K and it climbs to 2nd.
J-A-C-K ranks it 1st.

‘To be fair, what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?’
WTF!
to be fair??–to be fair?? Did you just make this up? Are you at home sobbing? Yes, your leader has frailties!
To be fair- you have all the attributes of a dipper.
This massage parlour is located in the riding of Trinity-Spadina. The MP for this riding must be fuming. Her name,Olivia Chow.
If I was Jack my main concern would be her,not what the public thinks.
Who says the NDP is a party with no new ideas?
From Ed Broadbent’s “ordinary working Canadians”, to E. Jack’s “ordinary jerking Canadians”.
That’s progressivism!
Jack did not just stumble into this parlour. He must have been aware of the illicit activities. The Mackenzie Institute did a research paper in 1995 concerning prostitution,strippers,lap-dancing,etc. Jack was mentioned as working closely with the club owners,and also having an unusual relationship with a former dancer. This may well have been above board and professional (no,not that way). However,it does indicate that Jack wss knowledgable about the sex trade at that time.
I contend that Jack went into that parlour under the cover of darkness with his eyes wide open. He was a married city councillor. Anyone in his position should have not come with-in a 100 yards of the place.This transgression shows an alarming lack of judgement and integrity,and likely some issues with women and his own pride.
Jack should do the right thing and resign to spare his family and his party any further public humiliation. I truly feel sorry for Olivia. Sun Media did not put a naked Jack in that bed. Jack did it on his own.

No one with functioning synapses could believe that everything was legitimate. However, one might call Jack “Teflon Jack” (aside from some rather rude titles) because nothing is allowed to stick to him. This man came from a well-off politically oriented family, rode to work on a bike while he used a limo to transport his paperwork, lived in subsidized housing and his policies will bankrupt (morally and financially) the average citizen. People should be mortified this crook was even allowed to run.
Amazing when you google search Jack L … As soon as you hit the L, how fast ‘massage’ comes up.

Check out page A6 of today’s National Post.
Layton was in a Triad Whorehouse getting a hand job from an immigrant prostitute at 9:30 at night. One of the same whorehouses that was part of an organized crime crackdown by Metro Vice.
How much influence does the tape of this hooker/client sex act have on Layton? How many times has it been used to leverage his cooperation? What will the government of China do with it? How badly will this tarnish the professional reputation and judgement of Canada’s elected officials?
Cut his security clearances and restrict his travel until CSIS has done a complete investigation.
what’s the truth on Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?
Even IF that were true, since when are affairs illegal?
Being found to be in a common body house is illegal,(it’s a summary offence) clothes on or not.
“Mr. Harper’s wife having an affair with an RCMP officer/bodyguard/driver?”
This is not a rumour. This is one of your sticky night time fantasies about a woman far better looking than anyone you’ll ever get your clammy, hairy little palms on.
Although for sheer stupidity, I have to hand it to Ted’s comment about how this might help Layton. Yes, indeed, right now politicians are bugging their cop buddies to get something like this in their files to help them on to victory. What a maroon.
