Topaz Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 A Sun journalist thought NDP MP Cash maybe in conflict of interest and wrote of article about his views. Turns out the Ethics Com Dawson says the NDP MP isn't in conflict. I do think that maybe journalist better do a better jobs of getting thie facts about any MP before writing any article that could damage their character. Why didn't the journalist find out first from the Ethics Com. before writing the article? by the "code of conduct" in the following article. http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/inside-politics-blog/2013/02/no-reason-to-believe-ndp-mp-broke-conflict-rules-ethics-watchdog.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash must resign! PIK... from the CBC's comment section??? Really? C'mon... anyone can write a comment - even you! Imagine... you'd put more emphasis on an online anonymous comment than the ruling from the Ethics Commissioner - go figure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradox Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 This is a complete non-issue. Ms. Mary Dawson, the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner, has already ruled that there was no violation of the Code. The commissioner stated that there could only be a violation of the Code were the member to vote on a motion that both related to the CBC in a way that affected his private interests. Since the contract between the member and CBC is already executed, and its performance is underway, motions related to the general funding CBC (even substantial increases of decreases) do not affect his private interests unless the bill seeks to somehow alter the CBC's compensation to Mr. Cash under an already-executed contract (which, as you might guess, is sensationally unlikely). It seems to me that Her Majesty's Government for Canada is latching onto this issue to distract Canadians from the real ethical dilemmas, which are the resignation of a Conservative minister for interference in the work of the Tax Court; interference in the independent work of the CRTC by two Conservative parliamentary secretaries, and even the Conservative finance minister himself. In the case of the parliamentary secretaries and the finance minister, the commissioner even issued official orders under her office. There is no moral authority on the part of the Conservative Government to lecture anyone else on accountability or ethics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boges Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Fords problems had nothing to do with raising money for a charity, and you know that. Seems too. People are still complaining even after he took City Letterhead off his fundraising letters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstone Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Fords problems had nothing to do with raising money for a charity, and you know that. Ford's problems have everything to do with the fact that he is conservative.In todays Ottawa Citizen,a big piece about him allegedly grabbing the ass of some lefty feminist......and while he is supposedly doing this.......she has a big smile on her face!(This made much bigger headlines than that radical environmentalist from the CBC who demands female escorts at his speaking engagements). Another baseless accusation from the loony left,they will stop at nothing to remove Rob Ford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Fords problems had nothing to do with raising money for a charity, and you know that. You're right, they had more to do with the complete lack of ethics of the left that they would try to use such an issue to get rid of someone they didn't like.
