Tony, Tony, Tony .... You're Toast!
.... or at least you should be!
"We don’t think that it’s appropriate for Tony Clement to continue sitting as a minister.’’
Thomas Mulcair, MP
Official Opposition House Leader
Note to the Editorial Boards of the Globe & Mail, National Post, Toronto Star, Montreal Gazette, Halifax Chronicle-Herald, Calgary Herald:
By letting Tony Clement off the hook with this disgusting abuse of tax dollars in his riding, you are telling the Harper Conservatives that you're prepared to turn a blind eye to their corrupt practices.
Is the main stream media of Canada TOTALLY in Mr. Harper's hip pocket?
When all is said and done the Sponsorship scandal that dominated Canadian media for half a decade was $2.5 million improperly disbursed, this is $50 million. The auditor refuses to re open the case now that there is evidence and the RCMP, haha ha.

If Harper has shown anything, it's that he's indifferent to this sort of chicanery unless and until it threatens his personal political aspirations. He doesn't give a fig what you or I think of Clement, not when he's got four safe years for it to blow over. Clement will go only when he's outlived his usefulness to Harper.
