Sgroing Out The Vote

Angry extracts some numbers from the Sgro Report;

Buried on page 19 of the Sgro Report is a description of how Temporary Residency Permits were used to buy votes during the election campaign.
The bottom line:

  • 128 permits issued during the 5 weeks of the 2004 federal campaign
  • 43, or 33%, were issued in the final week of the campaign
  • 76, or 59%, of the TRPs were supported by an MP
  • of these 76 TRPs , 24, or 31%, were supported by Judy Sgro herself
  • 19, or 80%, of Judy Sgro’s TRPs were issued in the last 24 hours of the campaign
  • another 50, or 66%, of the MP-supported TRPs issued during the election went to Liberal MPs
  • only 2, or 3%, of the MP-supported TRPs issued during the election went to Conservative MPs
  • This post has a bonus quiz!

    1. feed us a story about how a Liberal scandal is the fault of Conservatives. A pitchfork is usually more appropriate though.

    2. Is there not one freakin Liberal in this country that has not flushed his/her ethics down the toilet? Seems like everyday they manage to find a lower level to sink to. It is becomming difficult to find words to describe these low-lifes.
      Possible answers to the question:
      1) Feed Puffy Duffy
      2) Go to the Liberal barnyard to pick up tomorrows top story.

    3. Liberals bought votes with TRPs

      Coincidence I’m sure. The Liberals would never do something like buy votes, I mean next you’ll be trying to tell me that they would exchange Ministerial appointments and Senate seats in exchange for support on a confidence motion.

    4. For unloading the billion dollars in taxpayers’ money driven up to their back gate every year.
      For this princely sum, we’re treated to shoddy rewrites of shoddy BBC stories.

    5. Strippergate Watch

      contacts in Romania have noted that strippers returning from Canada have complained of forced prostitution and when the pressure to comply was rejected by any of the women their exotic dancer visas were revoked and they were deported

    6. Stack bullshit higher than thought humanly possible, by tamping down the sides with lickspittle produced while groveling for their jobs in front of their elitist lieberal appointed propoganda overlords.
      Death to socialism!
      Jail for it’s propogandists!

    7. CBC Communist Brainwashing Channel
      They even brainwash themselves.
      Death to socialism!
      Death for it’s propogandists!
      Free medicare (which it isnt) or FREEDOM (pick 1)
