    - McGuinty's government was getting corrupt - as most "in too long" gov'ts get, I acknowledge. Wynn was complicit and lied about it. The end. - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:02

        I was referring to the leaders, but even then, he was busted because of higher disclosure requirements that have come in recently. - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:09 2
        
        the Duffy thing is crazy. if the RCMP gets their hands on invoices for his hotel stays in PEI he is dun. -- nm - Beaker Jun 9, 08:10 1
        
        I think he goes to jail for a few months before this is all said and done. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:13
      - The Redford stuff was ridiculous. - Reagen Jun 9, 08:02 5
        
        The apartment she ordered built into the government building? The Mandela funeral trip? Come on. That's not higher standard. That's taking advantage. - Name Withheld By Request Jun 9, 08:07 4

        I kind of forsee a "flip the table" moment for Harper in the next little bit. He's turning into Nixon. -- nm - Reagen Jun 9, 08:06 1
