Okay Vic, Fess Up

Treasury Board president Vic Toews is nothing if not "holier than thou" and that leaves him with some explaining to do. It concerns the guy who runs Vic's regional office in Winnipeg or, more precisely, that guy's wife. It concerns how Patricia Haasbeek scored a $124,000 a year cushy post on the National Parole Board.

Vic, of course, says he had nothing to do with it, couldn't even if he tried. Well then, who did? If Patricia Haasbeek has some genuine qualifications for the job, let's hear about them. Let's also hear about who actually gave her the job and how she was chosen over other candidates.

C'mon Vic, fess up. It's all in the name of transparency and accountability after all.
