OTTAWA - A Conservative MP has issued a news release comparing Canadian police chiefs to a cult and suggesting Liberals should physically assault their leader, Michael Ignatieff.

Saskatchewan MP Garry Breitkreuz fired off the release Tuesday, angrily denouncing Ignatieff's decision to require all Liberal MPs to vote against a private member's bill that would scrap the controversial long-gun registry.

The Tories have launched an orchestrated campaign to ridicule Ignatieff's decision and to pressure eight Liberal MPs, who supported the bill at second reading, to stick to their guns when it comes up for a final vote next month.

The Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police also wound up in Breitkreuz's cross-hairs as he mocked opposition MPs' claims that the registry helps save lives.

"It's like a cult that is led by organizations of police chiefs who pretend the registry helps them do their jobs. They should be ashamed."

OTTAWA - A Conservative MP is apologizing for issuing a news release that compared Canadian police chiefs to a cult and urged Liberals to beat their leader, Michael Ignatieff, "black and blue."

Saskatchewan MP Garry Breitkreuz said late Tuesday that he did not write the release, issued under his name earlier in the day. "I want to apologize for the language in the news release. It was over the top," he said in a phone interview from his office.

"I don't know how that got out of here."

Musta been a fast nasty call from Harper! I wonder if Breitkreuz beeps when he backs up this fast?!

4. This statement is the perfect metaphor FOR gun control.

"I didn't write that release"
"I apologize"
"I don't know how that got out of here".


"I didn't shoot that kid"
"I apologize"
"I don't know how my son got ahold of my gun".

2. Conservatives are starting to disparage police more often

It's interesting how an extreme right wing mentality eventually devours all.

3. The law-and-order bunch looks down on cops,

much to the cop's amazement. This is a very strange crowd.
