A Liberal cabinet minister denied Wednesday that he offered any position to a Conservative MP or his wife in return for support and said he's offended that the Tory MP kept coming back to ask for favours.
Health Minister Ujjal Dosanjh was responding to a charge from Tory MP Gurmant Grewal that he and his wife Nina, also a Tory MP, were offered positions in return for ditching their votes against the Liberal budget on Thursday.Mr. Grewal had told media earlier Wednesday evening that the Liberals offered him a diplomatic post or a Senate seat for his wife in return for scratching their crucial budget vote. The MP from Surrey, B.C., alleged he made an audio recording of an offer from Mr. Dosanjh and Tim Murphy, Prime Minister Paul Martin's chief of staff.
Neale News is also carrying this report from CTV. The National Post story is here. The Toronto Star, at the time I posted this was not carrying the report in their online edition but they were carrying a stories concerning the new powers of legislation and taxation Toronto City Council has been granted and one story on how McGirlieman is not satisfied with deal he worked out with PM Dithers and is reported to have said “We talked about a $23 billion gap, (and) that agreement that we've reached is only a small step." No one asked who would pay for all the largess though I suppose its time that the documented taxpayers put their shoulders to the grindstone and we all get a second job to pay for the next tier of taxation for the ever expending public purse. Perhaps McGirlieman can legislate that.
Ben at The Tiger in Winter also has a link for CTV’s audio clip of the alleged bribery tape.
I really think that Harper should make a personal appeal to the Queen in light of the allegations of influence peddling/vote buying that is alleged to being going on by the current Librano government and ask that British SAS be sent in to liberate us because only Lord knows with the Librano’s gun control legislation, we the law abiding citizens, cannot. The Librano’s almost total hobbling of the armed forces in last decade means that they cannot do so, so who is left but SAS?
Ben called it rightly. Canada is now a Banana Dominion.
