  Tracking the Lie: The CPC has cut funding for womens programs.

  Posted: September 7th, 2008, 9:31am MST

  Tags:  smear   [edit]

  I need your help. (Please see this previous post) I am going to attempt to track one of the biggest lies that the Conservatives have faced from almost the beginning of their time in government.
  
  The Lie: The Conservative Government has cut funding to Women's programs. i.e. The Status of Women.
  
  The Truth: News release: The budget of the Women's Program has been increased by 42 percent, bringing it to its highest level ever of $15.3 million.
  
  If you see/hear this lie being used please drop a link into the comments and I will update this post as necessary.
  
  
  It is much harder to spread lies like this if those spreading the lies know they are being watched and know they will be called out on their smears.
  
  _________
  
  
  Sept 07, 2008 less than 2 hours after the writ is dropped the Canadian Press spreads lies:"The autumn of their first year in power, the Conservatives galvanized one angry constituency with $2 billion in spending cuts that targeted such things as the court challenges program, adult literacy and women's programs - while posting a $13 billion surplus for 2005-2006" * * (26 Google hits for this story)
  
  Please add your finds in the comments.

  Game on!
