http://www.canada.com/sports/Paradis+stayed+former+Nordiques+owner+lodge+during+federal+lobby+arena+Report/6362785/story.html One day after Quebec City announced it will move ahead — with the help of the province — with an NHL-calibre arena, CTV reported that federal Industry Minister Christian Paradis spent time at the hunting lodge of a former owner of the Quebec Nordiques when federal money was still being sought. On Monday night, CTV reported that Paradis, when he was public works minister in 2009, stayed at the exclusive lodge of Marcel Aubut. At the time, Aubut was seeking federal money for the $400-million project.

That seems to be this governments MO, ala Tony Clements slush fund

In exchange for them adopting the Loonie, I'd be down with that

Oh, that is bad, can't wait to read the scathing AG report on this Derek doesn't seem to mind corruption

You mean the military that got caught trying to cover up Peter MacKay's misdeeds and searching for information to smear opposition mps? that military?

He has great confidence in the Jet that has had all kinds of set backs? I'm sorry man, but no one believes that crap.

Can't wait to see them put the oil sands on one of the bills! haha or a Tony Clement gazebo and fake lake

So, a ship named after a Norwegian explorer, an arctic icebreaker which we don't have many of.. and replaced were women's rights and the UN declaration of human rights which are historical in Canada's history I guess the Conservatives are going to scare off the Russians by putting the arctic on our 50 dollar bill! http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/new-50-bill-out-womens-rights-un-charter-in-arctic-icebreaker/article2382179/ Gone from the new bill are images of human-rights causes, like the women’s liberation movement and the UN Declaration on Human Rights. Added is an image of an Arctic icebreaker, the Canadian Coast Guard research ship Amundsen.

Might as well give them a chance to screw up big time like the other two

Somebody probably got paid big time by the U.S Lockheed .. ala Airbus affair

he went through the election probably knowing his cancer was back. I think it took everything out of him.

Didn't realize the conservatives have designated you, Derek, as their damage control stooge. The federal government didn't follow normal procurement procedures to buy the F-35 fighter jets and the plane fails to meet at least one critical feature the government stipulated must be met, documents viewed by CBC News suggest. Why would CBC be reporting this if it were untrue? Do you have your tin foil hat on Derek?! You are calling Evan Solomon a liar basically. Yes you are, don't deny it.

Dexter is the only show where I watch it only because of one character.. Dexter Morgan. I really don't care if any of the rest live or die. The trinity killer has been the best baddie for Dexter and I enjoyed the Ice Truck killer too. The plot is really blah sometimes but Michael C Hall keeps me watching..that character alone makes it worth all the hassle. Michael C Hall is a brilliant actor, he was in Six Feet Under as David Fisher and he is here too. Michael C Hall, Bryan Cranston, Timothy Olyphant, Walton Goggins, Michael Chiklis are some of the best tv actors in the last 20 years of TV IMO

Why did they make up their own requirements if they were just going to ignore them anyway? That is what befuddles me. If you're just going to say f the process you there really is no point in trying to make it look like you followed your rules. Is this one of the issues the conservatives were found in contempt of or was that just the pricing?

I suppose so, but if he isn't gonna say anything new there really is no point in him doing this

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/story/2012/03/26/pol-elections-canada-committee-thursday.html Chief Electoral Officer Marc Mayrand will appear before the procedure and House affairs committee Thursday morning after putting out a statement asking for the chance to update MPs about the ongoing investigation in Guelph, Ont. coming out of the May 2, 2011 election. A notice for the committee meeting says the subject is "allegations of wrongdoing" during the 41st general election.

@glen_mcgregor: Does everyone understand that Chief Electoral Officer Marc Mayrand can't and won't talk about #robocalls investigation at committee Thurs? @glen_mcgregor: Mayrand isn't conducting the #robocalls investigation. It's led by Comm of Elections William Corbett, who hasn't been invited to #PROC. @glen_mcgregor: So, best we'll get from Mayrand is general discussion and maybe his thoughts on revisions to Elections Act re #robocalls.

Its what you suggested

This is worse than the Airbus scandal

Nah, this pretty much kills the whole deal.. if they did not meet the requirements

I've been following Acoyne on twitter for a year. I haven't seen him this excited. I've never seen him use the word epic either.

The shit hit the fan did it?

Neither PC nor NDP are anywhere ready for another election

I voted NDP, Liberals are not my party

Not really. Just thinking like the CpC in regards to attacks
