CBC reviewing claim

The CBC has begun an internal investigation and possible disciplinary process after one of its parliamentary reporters suggested questions to a Liberal MP on the Commons ethics committee.

This will be the third time CBC has had to do an internal investigation about anti-conservative reporting.

In 2004 an email from Stephanie Matteis of CBC's The National exposed the CBC's search for Canadians that would not vote for the Conservatives because they were "scared, freaked out or worried about the Conservatives, the Conservative agenda or its leader."

The CBC was also forced on August 21, 2006 to express "regret" over a story by CBC reporter Christina Lawand that misrepresented an answer given by Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Mulroney didn't receive Airbus kickback

He said that allegations of Mulroney's involvement in securing an Air Canada contract for the purchase of planes from the European company were laughable.

Remind me again, what was this ethics committee trying to achieve?
Greenspan was right,this whole political charade is Cirque de Soleil, and thanks to the NDP and Liberals a total waste of taxpayer time and money.
But hey, the opposition will pay for it in the next election.

Other forums are paying people to post.
Are people  getting paid to post on MLW,by MLW?  Or maybe by other sources?

Dion has isolated himself from all those who work with him.He knows better, and this is probably why 18 Liberal MP's are packing it up.

At the present time, Dion is a lone man who has isolated himself from the people in charge of his campaign and from the people in his office, Liberals say.

A couple of Liberal MPs told The Hill Times last week that they have “approached him many times offering our support since his election last year in Montreal. He did not call once.” One Liberal strategist who once supported Dion told The Hill Times last week that Dion “is alone. He is a person who hears you, but doesn’t listen.” The former supporter says that a conversation with Dion is “like being in a restaurant talking to the person sitting in front of you who, instead of listening to you, looks continuously to the guest seating in another table or at the clouds outside.” Another Liberal strategist, again who did not want to be identified and who never supported Dion, told The Hill Times that “even his close friends are fed up and have left him alone.” Another Liberal MP, who did not want to go public either, said that Dion “pays attention only to his wife and his dog Kyoto,” and completely disregards advice from the people working with him “and the results are those we see every day at Question Period.”

He really should get a copy of Dale Carnegie's book-How to Win Friends and Influence People...he could read it to Kyoto,maybe his dog is a good listener.

Probe finds 'phantom' jobs created for ex-political staffers

The Public Service Commission of Canada has uncovered 24 cases of "unsatisfactory staffing actions" involving the movement of public servants to and from political jobs, the commission said in a report released Tuesday.

The commission said an audit revealed the creation of "phantom" jobs for political staffers after they left a minister's office. The investigation began in 2006 when the Public Service Commission (PSC) looked into two cases of public servants who were on leave from appointed positions to work in minister's offices.

The commission found that the two positions existed only on paper, and launched a full review of the movements between government offices and the public service.  

The audit spanned the actions of 15 organizations from 1990 to 2006,and examined 157 movements. Of these movements, 99 were excluded from the audit as "low-risk", the report said, while 24 became cases of interest.

Most of these incidents occurred under the Liberal government after 1996.

The old laundry is being pulled from the Liberal hamper and it doesn't smell any better than the old laundry that Dion claims the Conservatives have. Looks like a game of who's got the dirtiest laundry......maybe Chretien's  and Martin's will find their way on top of the pile next.
