14 million a waste of taxpayer money on Mulroney
I noticed today that Warren Kinsella is all excited about the Mulroney inquiry and calling it a "Conservative nightmare". In reality this is a nightmare for the Canadian taxpayer. At a time when Obama is putting partisan politics aside and the economy first; the Liberal Party of Canada is ready for more partisan games. This time the cost will be $14,000,000 dollars to hold a public inquiry into Schreiber and Mulroney's dealings. The money could be better spent in a thousand different ways. This process of course will further delay Schreiber's deportation to Germany where they are waiting to bring the man to justice for alleged crimes over there. It is also interesting watching Liberals jump on a story that happened over a decade ago and attempt to link it to Stephen Harper ignoring the Liberal sponsorship scandal of recent memory. During this recession we need to be focused on matters that impact Canadians during these tough economic times. It is a shame that parliament and the media is going to be distracted with this partisan witch hunt that is of no concern to the average Canadian. At the end of the day it will be interesting to see if anything comes out of this. I suspect the biggest scandal here will be the money pissed down the drain on inquiry. Anyone care to comment on how you would like to see that 14 million spent instead?
Update: Look who is back in the Liberal Party. So much for that ban for life after the sponsorship scandal.
