When it comes to sniffing out dirty Liberal campaign tricks, New Democrat Party Leader Jack Layton is nobody's fool.
For canadafreepress.com, Layton's defrocking real life Liberal employees posing as "everyday average Canadians" voting Liberal in television ads makes up for his January 3, 2005 trip to tsunami-ravaged Sri Lanka with Prime Minister Paul Martin.
Ostensibly in Sri Lanka to assess tsunami damage, the Prime Minister of Canada took advantage of the human tragedy to promote the purified water of Zenon Environmental Inc., an Oakville-based company of which the prime minister's lifetime mentor Maurice Strong is a board member.
Brother Martin's water-swigging gesture–complete with excessive verbiage about the water's qualities--in the midst of thirsty Sri Lankans was captured in film footage shot by award-winning Canadian documentary journalist Garth Pritchard, on the scene prior to Martin's visit at the invitation of Canada's mercy mission DART.

This time it is Layton who caught the Liberals trying to pull a fast one on unsuspecting Canadian television viewers.
