Straight from the pages of the How Low Will They Go department, Jack Layton's NDP party has officially launched a game titled 'The Great Paul Martin Credibility Hunt'. The organizers of this game are promising actual prizes for winners. The prizes being offered include hotel and airfare to places such as The Bahamas, Cyprus, Liberia, Malta, Panama or Vanuatu.
From the NDP official website game page, organizers promise "you and a friend are going on an all-expense paid trip to any of the countries whose flag Martin flew on his ships to get out of paying Canadian taxes, hiring Canadian workers or following Canadian environmental law".
The rules are simple: the winner must provide proof that Paul Martin's Canadian values platform is real and not a ploy "to try and manipulate people just long enough to get their vote." The first person to prove Martin's values are more than a convenient re-election ploy wins a vacation prize package for two. The winners will be announced on January 20, according to the website at http://www.ndp.ca/credibilityhunt .
At press time a request for clarification by HalifaxLive on the validity of the Great Paul Martin Credibility Hunt went unanswered.*Updated to add* - HalifaxLive received confirmation late this afternoon from Communications Director Brad Lavigne that the contest is indeed real.
