Political favours influencing H1N1 vaccine
November 5, 2009 · Filed Under Politics
Stephen Harper has long campaigned on a promise to end Liberal political patronage in Ottawa. That’s why many Canadians were surprised when he appointed 18 CPC friendly senators at a time when he didn’t have the confidence of the House of Commons. It’s now been revealed that senators are costing taxpayers almost 220 per cent more for expenses while working less and less.
And as if political patronage when it comes to the Senate wasn’t disturbing enough, it turns out political patronage has played a role in the distribution, or lack thereof, of lifesaving H1N1 vaccines.
Stephen Harper proves once again: Liberal, Tory, same old story.
