A little overkill. 200M over 8(?) years for the federal government is actually less of a loss relativily speaking then the millions lost when the Holy Cross hospital was sold for pennies on the dollar to Klein's good (American i believe) friends in the Health Care business (but remember privatization is good for the little guy!) or when his wife (And Chief of staff and his wife?) made millions on stock promoted by him questionably while abroad on tax payer paid 'business' or the billions made by power companies and saved by oil sands extractors (whose power intensive extraction techniques have been subsidized by artificially rising energy demand at peak to offset usage costs at non-peak) since evergy privatization, etc.
Corruption, greed, playing favorite's, padding friends pockets, etc are all pretty standard across the board, no need to self-rightously limit the accusations to Liberals only... not to mention buying vote's...

No kidding. Corruption is the end result of any government. The Convervatives don't exactly have a shining history of non-corrupt government. It seems like no one remembers Mulroney. The fact the Liberal party has dominated over the past 15 years is almost completely because of his government. Conservatives have no one else to blame.
