What Did Ralph Say?
Filed Under: Canadian Affairs
While making my Sunday rounds within the Blogging Tories I came across this great piece about Ralph Goodale over at Angry in the Great White North.
I shouldn’t be so petty, but to brag about closing the barn door after the horses had bolted (horses barely able to move, laden as they were with bags of taxpayers’ money) goes to show how little good news there is in the Adscam mess.
Apparently the Prime Minister wanted to know if there was anyway money could be freed up for an event in the Prime Minister’s riding.
Mr. Goodale said no.
I wholeheartedly agree with Angry. But something else bothers me about this. Ralph Goodale almost brags about the fact he said no to Chretien. It then follows obviously that in order to say no, a request must have been made, right? Isn’t this contrary to the official line being spewed out by those involved in this mess, that is, there was no interference from the PMO? Doesn’t this prove that is was actually quite simple for the PMO to pick up the phone and make the request?
