Staffer fired as Conservatives scurry from sex film screening
OTTAWA - A provocative movie about the sex lives of young people is too hot for some Conservatives to handle - and a parliamentary staffer has been fired for ordering tickets to a special screening.

Tory MPs are denying they ever planned to watch the film "Young People F**king" even though several of their names appeared on an RSVP list for an Ottawa viewing Thursday night.

The movie has fuelled censorship debate around a Conservative bill that would deny tax credits to productions deemed "contrary to public policy" by the government.

An assistant to MP Gary Goodyear from Cambridge, Ont. was fired after Goodyear's name showed up on the screening guest list. She had in fact ordered the ticket for herself.
