Frobisher Food Bank Fakeout 

A campaign tactic whereby a sitting Prime Minister, dropping fast in the polls, appears at a northern Food Bank to act as if he cares about Indigenous kids - despite taking Indigenous kids to court after being found to have violated their Human Rights by a Federal Human Rights Tribunal.
Liberal Aide: "Oh my God, I'm going to have to move back in with my mom, we're polling at 29%!"
