KC & McQuire must be so proud of their team
This is a pretty good list of how The Conservatives have brought more accountability and transparency to government.
Larry Martin is libtard slime. Nobody takes this clown seriously w/ his all too predictable Tory bashing

Well if they were the Liberals saved their asses thanks to the Vikileaks cyberbullying campaign. The CPC can muddy the water on the issue to the point where the public will take the usual 'all politicians are scum' view of it & assume that they all do it. Not exactly good for instilling confidence but should save their bacon.

You admit that their bacon needs saving? Admitting they have wronged Canadians? Good for you McGuire, you really have come a long way.

Whenever did I say that?? Your side has still offered no proof that this was anything other than a rogue element within the party which has been dealt with. Where's the proof that the PM, the campaign leadership or the party hierarchy was involved in this?? Put up or shut up.

Not looking good-apparently out of the 42 ridings involved, only 10 actually did have their polling stations changed.

It's not the Liberals afterall
Robo-calls: Conservative backbencher lays blame for robo-calls with Elections Canada
OTTAWA—A maverick Conservative MP has taken a new tack in the robo-call affair, pointing a finger of blame at Elections Canada for sloppy voter lists.
Leave it to the Tories to leave no stone unturned. I thought they were further ahead blaming the Liberals but I should have know it would turn out to be Elections Canada. Well, for today anyway.

Personally, I don't think Harper knew about any of this. During an election campaign, the leaders are lead around like dogs on a leash. But... I bet you some higher ups in the Conservative Party knew about it and sanctioned it. Harper needs to get a grip on this and fire those in his party that are responsible for it.

You and I would be in rare agreement on this. There isn't one chance in a million he knew about this at the time. Thing is, when he demanded answers how long did it take to get them? The right ones that is. Cause the Prime Minister isn't going to be very happy having stood up in the House and make the statements he made last week about the Liberals and their American phone firm and only hours later made a fool of. He must have been furious.

The guelph end of this is getting more rotten by the day, the tories there handed over their reciepts and info on the robocalls made from racknine. Damn good of them, too bad the cash spent on that was not part of their expense claims filed with elections Canada. Who the hell is working for these guys? Bernie madoff

Well, they blamed the kid (who denies it), after they fired him.
They blamed the liberals, and demanded to see the Liberal call lists (even though they won't show theirs).
Are they pulling them in front of a committee now??
They are blaming elections canada? Because they asked for lists? Haha. Oh boy, someone's gonna get fired there now. haha
These CONS are just dirty.
Dirty.
Dirty.
