      They are not in prison....yet. Like everywhere else in the free world, there has to be a proper investigation, evidence, lawyers and a trial. Probably the saddest part of this whole (likely) corrupt situation (innocent until proven guilty) is that Mike Duffy, a political reporter, was one of the most trusted individuals on Canadian television....thought by everyone to be a person of impeccably high standards.        :(

        Because no one has brought charges against them?

          Can we borrow them once they are done rounding up your corrupt politicians?

          Sadly the RCs are just as corrupt as them all...if not more so!! They are called the "Queen's Henchmen" to this day!

          Well at least they are investigating. On capitol hill, investigating means finding a new place for pastries.

            He is just the tipsy tip of that iceburg lemme say...further down the page they start outing them..inclusive of the illustrious Pamela Walin...however THE three are mentioned near the bottom of said article...scheister #1,#2, and #3. Canadian politics just used to be street fighting back in the days of Mackenzie and et al hoodlums...seriously...if the 'boys' had an issue they would slog brews at either end of York Street and then go slip sliding in the mud and horse cookies, meet in the middle ground, have a great good row of it, and then stagger off to find somewhere dry to sober up...early Canada was a hoot! ...and that's your lesson in Canadienne politics pretty much in a nutshell!! (Move over Bullwinkle) lol

            Would be nice if that happened. Trouble is, the republicans are wimps. They wave the white flag when the dems say BOO!
