I mean, you must've admired ol' Hunter enough to appoint him to Cabinet, right?Asked several times why he would not simply deny the accusations if they were not true, Mr. Tootoo continued to repeat what sounded like prepared remarks.Yessirree, it's like a breath of fresh air... a welcome change from that secretive controlling Harper oligarchy... wait a minute...
"His status with regard to the Liberal caucus remains unchanged."But, hang on... the Honourable™ Hunter Tootoo seems to be calling the Prime Minister a liar...
"Tootoo insisted it was his decision to leave the government. The decision to leave … was mine, and mine alone. I chose to step away from cabinet and from caucus."Not to get all obsessive-compulsive here... but isn't this where any "professional journalist" worth a donkey fart notices that either Tootoo or Trudeau is trying to pass off a big, fat lie... and aggressively pursues THAT story.
Yeah, that's a good one. Because it's 2016.

RELATED: Sorry, Mr Fife...
...we all knew what was going on back in early June...
Hunter Tootoo must have really crossed a line... even the Justin Network has been told he is no longer a "protected species"...Tootoo also evaded questions on CBC's Northbeat Wednesday night on what prompted him to resign in May.Amazing.
