So.. what your saying, is it costs us about $738,845.03 per day to beat a dead horse in Parliament for no other reason than to give a desperate Liberal government SOMETHING to motivate the electorate to vote for them.
Because the detainee issue was dealt with. So it's not a current issue.
November 1st 2009 represents the fourth anniversary of the first report of the Commission of Inquiry into the Sponsorship Program and Advertising Activities, presided over by Justice Gomery. Despite the time that has passed, we are no closer to knowing which Federal Liberal riding associations benefited from the stolen taxpayer funds or where the missing $43 million dollars highlighted by Justice Gomery ultimately wound up.
The Standing committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics calls on the Auditor General of Canada to conduct a full audit of the sponsorship program to determine which federal Liberal riding associations received stolen funds and to clarify for Canadians who received the missing $43 million dollars.
Hmmm....seems about right. Apparently, it costs about $600 million a year for our parliament - and Harper shuts it down.
ReplyDeleteHarper's like a kid who got hold of daddy's credit card.
..hmm..

Good grief
Let the opposition ask for it publicly.
