Guergis: No One Has Told Me What the Allegations Are
Helena Guergis broke her silence Monday, telling the CBC in an exclusive interview that a month after her highly publicized ouster from the Conservative caucus she still doesn't know anything about the "serious allegations" that prompted her dismissal.
"I don't even know what the allegations are," the former junior cabinet minister said in an interview with Peter Mansbridge, the CBC's chief correspondent. "Just put it on the table. Let me see it. Let me defend myself. Give me the opportunity to stand up for myself."
.....
The former minister for the status of women accuses the Conservative Party of treating her unfairly.
"I feel as though they've thrown the rule books out the window, that they're not respecting due process at all. I find it very undemocratic.
"I'm hurt by the Prime Minister. I am hurt because I did consider him to be a friend as well, so I find that very hard to deal with."
....
"I feel as though I've gone through a trial, I have been convicted and now I'm been sentenced. And I still don't know what it is I'm supposed to have done."
