Perspective matters.
clarification – the trust fund proportion is indicated by a red dot in the expanded view. You may have to increase your text size to see it. (My apologies to colour blind readers about whom I thought after selecting the colors.)
If perspective does matter you better shrink that green spot about 80%. And how did the Liebral thieves come up with the $750 G number? Are they saying every stuffed envelope filled with hundred dollar bills was carefully notated by the mobsters running this scam? If so, where’s the proof of da proof of da proof?
Of course they were carefully annotated. Weren’t they overseen by an accountant?
The slender green slice is the $100 million that went missing. The tiny red dot in the corner is the size of the trust fund. I realize it may be hard to see, even with the blowup circle
Developing:
Conservative MP Gurmant Grewal says the Liberals
offered him a diplomatic post or a Senate seat for his wife in return for scratching his crucial budget vote.
The MP from Surrey, B.C., whose wife Nina is also a Tory MP, alleges he made an audio recording of the offer from Liberal cabinet minister Ujjal Dosanjh and Tim Murphy, Prime Minister Paul Martin’s chief of staff.
“I was approached early this week by Ujjal Dosanjh and asked to abstain or vote with the government on the budget vote,” said Grewal, a three-term MP.
“In exchange, I was given an understanding that I would be rewarded in some fashion.”
Grewal said the options included a diplomatic appointment for him or a Senate seat in the future for Nina Grewal, who was first elected to Parliament just last June.
The Liberals immediately denied the allegation.
“This not what happened,” said Scott Reid, Martin’s director of communications.
“(Grewal) asked for a post and was told no.”
The allegation comes a day after Belinda Stronach shocked her Tory caucus colleagues by jumping to the Liberal cabinet.
Martin insisted the move was Stronach’s initiative and that the Liberals were not actively attempting to poach from Conservative ranks.
But Grewal said Murphy told him the Liberals were approaching “three or four” other Conservative MPs, as well.
Stronach’s defection left the House of Commons deadlocked between the Liberal-NDP camp and the Conservative-Bloc Quebecois alignment less than 24 hours before a crucial budget vote Thursday that could kill the minority government.
Two Independent MPs hold the balance of power.
Lets hope he produces the audio quicker than Inky mark has produced the phone records!
Anon. Is Gurmant Grewal going to release that recording? Now would be a good time.
Question for anyone: I know that funds flowing to foundations are above the scope of the Auditor-General, but I’m wondering if this can be changed when the conservatives form the government. Can the house order an inquiry(s)? Or do laws have to be changed? If so can that be retroactive?
Liberals look to repay donations
Right out of the Liberal playbook, note the word donations. The machine is on:
…
Tape has just been released. It sounds very much like Tim Murphy offering a foreign posting to Grewal or a Senate seat to his wife.
but they’re “nice”, so “fugetaboudit”
Who is Tim Murphy?
Oh, sorry.
You mean, Tim Murphy, PM Martin’s chief of staff.
I thought Tim had moved on to the Senate? or was it the Mint? No, it was the VIA Rail, wasn’t it? Warden at Kingston Pen? Wait, give him a call.
So the motherfukers knew they had
stollen our tax-payers money.
Nothing more to be said. An admission
OF GUILT.
But do the sleepy, satisfied sheep of Canadar even care? And how would the RCMP even consider looking at this when they are involved with the Liebral Mafia, sucking up the tax-payers’ money just like the rest of the Family.
So, if the tape has been released, what does that do for tomorrow? And can anyone be charged? As I understand it, it is illegal to buy, coerce, or bribe anyone to cross the floor.
So if I go to Canada and rob a bank and get say $800,000 does that mean even if I’m caught I only have to pay back $8000?
Will I also get a government pension out of it?
Jay, if you go to the Embassy, they’ll know who has the keys and can arrange a limo so you can break in in comfort. The biggest violation would be to not bring enough brown envelopes.
Tell me though, is the money actually coming from the Liberal party, itself or was it somehow funneled from the taxpayer? Oh Ontario— do vote them in again!!! Alberta better build that wall soon!!!
Lou Lou, wall won’t do any good, we need a missle defense shield for the moonbars hopping over the fence.
Where’s the money coming from? Supposedly they are broke. Had a $13 million dollar debt. Is Rae over at PowerCorp going to phone the bank for them again?
I’ll believe it when I am told the money is there by a reputable auditor who hasn’t contributed to the Liberals. I suspect that it will only be a bond, a promise to pay.
Oh my god.. the government spent our money on ADVERTISING?? WTF do they think they are doing with our money. I want a refund. Mwah Mwah Mwah..
Okay Rob, I’m packing – uh . . . I don’t really have to register my gun with the Gun Registry do I?
Jay – my understanding is only if it’s with a ‘long’ gun. Anything under, say, 12″ is probably ok. Depending on who you talk to. And what province you live in. And who you “know” vs. who you know. And whether or not we know where you live.
etc.
I’m in a state, not a province. But 12″ is no problem, I’ll just attach the silencer.
Lots of guns in Canada.
They tried to set up a system here in Toronto so little old widows could give the local constabulary their desceased husbands old moose rifles because they didn’t want to fill out all the impossible paperwork and install big gun locker in their homes.
The guns were to be destroyed in a giant press.
So the cops could make it look like they were “getting guns off the streets”, like we’re tripping over them laying around.
Beautiful Italian overunders and lots of fine 1000 dollar deer and moose rifles started to be destroyed in public, the pictures were disgusting.
I remember seeing one amazing 12 guage upland bird gun that had gold inlay, crushed by the giant hydrolic scissors on TV.
So of course some of the cops started stealing the good guns and even selling them.
Quickly put an end to anyone else turning them in and rightly put an end to such a lame policy.
It’s pretty sad when neither right nor wrong means anything, your only hope is that the endemic corruption goes your way once and awhile.
Im thinking we may have reached a new low in canada or I just wasnt aware of it before.
Where does it go from here. The libs have to be removed for starters and Harper will have to clean up the country. Everyone on the take gets cut off,trouble is that seems like half the country and they of course will not want to be weaned from the bottle.
I can only believe that most canadians want this country cleaned up.
