Even more conflicting information about Ms. Brosseau

A few days ago I posted about the apparent disconnect between the newly elected Ms. Brosseau's reported language abilities and parliamentary language preference.

One might think that Ms. Brosseau has already dealt with enough media coverage, but it seems that she might be in for a fair bit more because reports are now coming out that the post-secondary experience reported on Ms. Brosseau's NDP profile page did not actually occur as claimed. It seems that the school in question has indicated that Ms. Brosseau did not complete the program that it has been claimed she completed. Drama.

Now it seems that the NDP profile been modified to reflect the claim of the school.

Anyway, while I can't say that I am glad to hear about this development I am quite pleased that CBC's reporting on the topic has at least resulted in a second picture of Ms. Brosseau. The overwhelming presence of the first photo was starting to become a little disconcerting. Was there only one picture of this woman? That being said, the new photo being used by the CBC has the same strange background. What's up with that?

Anyway, I am curious to see how much longer this story will manage to attract coverage. Mustn't there be more important stories for the parliamentary press corps to be following?

The real story is yet to come:

She doesn't exist.

The NDP has been frantically grooming a paid actress, forging documents and the like.

This might suggest otherwise
