    Corruption among the Cons? Who'd have thought that could be true.

    Yes the Harper government was elected to clean up politics and govern with a honest and forthright manner.

    Very telling that not a single Con has posted yet if this were the Liberals .......

    Corruption is not a party thing, it's everywhere in politics.

    Yes it is. I've been saying that since day one against the Cons on this forum who actually believe their party would do things differently.

    So since riden posted this, is he still a partisan hack for posting negative information about the CPC?

    No he's a hack because he is the person claiming that they are a different kind of politician and mitigating it whenever the cons get caught with things like "I don't like this but ...".

    Poor Derby. :roll:

    I think this says more about Montreal's corrupt business practices but it's still a big embarassment. I don't believe that Montreal's corrupt business is a federal matter but we can't have senators who are corrupt so investigate annd replace him if nessesary.

    What part of the fact you never said that when it was Martin calling for an investigation when the Libs were under fire for the same thing? Back then as always any Lib in a similar position was proof of the entire parties corruption but not when its your party.
