The only surprise to me is that the figure isn't higher. Then again, it probably is.

Elizabeth May as environment minister? No surprise to me there either. I predicted that about 50 pages back.

The only real surprise to me is that the Separatist Coalition actually has the nerve to trot out Jacques Parizeau to help sell this bill of goods to Quebecers.

As for the source of the $1.3 billion bribe story, didn't Duffy say it was Pauline Marois, leader of the PQ? That's a pretty credible source.

This is all so fubar'ed I don't know how anyone can still support this disgusting display of greed and disregard for the nation, for democracy, indeed for the rule of law. The coalition members are nothing but a bunch of liars and traitors. Too bad treason isn't still rewarded with a firing squad, because that's what Layton and Dion deserve. I can't blame Duceppe for this ... he's only being true to his mandate. But Dion, Layton and all the MPs who are their "loyal supporters" are all traitors.

Excuse me, I need to go grab an emesis bag.
