"In any event, this unseemly transaction pales to insignificance compared with the subsequent Liberal Adscam/Sponsorgate rip off of tens of millions of TAXPAYERS' DOLLARS involving dozens of Quebec Liberals and lobbyists on the take for almost a decade...."

I occasionally scan through comments on GM stories.  For the most part I have given up o that exercise as a complete waste of time as they are nothing more than a litany of nonsense spewed by old hyper-partisan trolls.  Your comment above is a case in point....see the following.

"...In the end, the Commission concluded that $2 million was awarded in contracts without a proper bidding system, $250,000 was added to one contract price for no additional work, and $1.5 million was awarded for work that was never done, of which $1.14 million was repaid. ..."

Hardly tens of millions ....   any comments on "in-and-out"?....on second thought...don't bother  I'm not about to bother with a troll reply.
