CTV News vice-president Richard Gray told MPs that a recent video broadcast by the news outlet misrepresenting comments from the opposition leader was an unprecedented occurrence in his 33-year career.
Gray testified before the House of Commons ethics committee regarding a Sept. 22 video that was edited in a way that gave the impression that Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre had tabled a non-confidence motion against the Liberal government over dental care. Poilievre was actually discussing issues like crime and inflation and said, “That’s why it’s time to put forward a motion for a carbon tax election.”
