Now I understand the harper fetish of building more correctional facilities. He needs them to silence the people in the know that don't agree with him or his policies.<br /><br />Sad day indeed for Canadians.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-4379278559957706942013-08-29T21:01:06.090-07:002013-08-29T21:01:06.090-07:00Hi, Craig. I'm not sure if it's just one ...Hi, Craig. I'm not sure if it's just one person or a small group that's leaking information to Fife. However it's a carefully choreographed effort.<br /><br />In May it began with what were basically rumours floated by "anonymous sources." Those succeeded in eliciting denials. Only then was the first Duffy e-mail leaked to Fife that set the cat among the pigeons and triggered Nigel Wright's departure and a broad RCMP investigation.<br /><br />I was told it was a small group of Tory dissidents taking a shot at Harper. That's why I was wondering how the summer would play out. I expected Harper to batten the hatches and ferret out his enemies, silencing them if he could. Apparently he didn't succeed.<br /><br />I think the mid-August leaks were carefully timed. This is no coincidence, no accident. I'm wondering whether Harper didn't have advance notice that something else was coming that made him want to prorogue Parliament into October.<br /><br />There are signs that Harper is on the defensive but perhaps somewhat dangerously so. "Stay tuned" seems to be the buzzphrase in Ottawa these days.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-43556873113965265852013-08-29T19:57:21.137-07:002013-08-29T19:57:21.137-07:00It seems like someone is still leaking to CTV'...It seems like someone is still leaking to CTV's Robert Fife since he had some e-mails a few nights ago that apparently say Duffy was manipulated by the 2 CPC Senators.<br /><br />I hope whoever is leaking to Fife is able to keep giving him this info so that Canadians can put together the full story soon, whatever it may be.Craig Buntinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12467351647666211557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-18966959225373674762013-08-29T17:24:02.586-07:002013-08-29T17:24:02.586-07:00I've known one of these people for nearly 40-y...I've known one of these people for nearly 40-years although we've never been on the same team in politics.
