Is there anything to substantiate Duffy's claims about the 1.3 billion bribe to Quebec? If there's traction on that rumor, then the GG needs to seriously weigh the actual motivations of the coalition against the best interests of Canadians. To hand power to a coalition promoting a man for PM who was just rejected by voters, backed by secret dealings and billion dollar bribes would be irresponsible on Jean's part IMO. I still think the best way out of this (as distaste as it is) is go back to the polls with all the political cards on the table and let the voters decide. If the Conservatives are toppled by the public vote then, so be life.
