Please note the source Steyn gives for his $50,000 figure. Notice that you won't find any such source.

According to the government, over $90 million has already been given to a variety of NGOs, with a further $300+ million to be paid over the next few years.

Here are the agencies that have already received money from the Canadian government:

But we can't let facts be an excuse to not bash Martin and the Liberal government, can we?
Ummm, where exactly did I bash your precious 'liberals'? Kinda funny how you defend them before anyone has even said anything.

If you read my comment I actually asked "if that is true?", I didn't jump to any conclusions.
