Couple of things that make this a rather odd admission.

1) He resigned last week really before the story broke. So it's odd that he would resign for something he didn't do, well before the real media frenzy kicked in.

2) It makes Peter MacKay's comments from earlier this week very odd. MacKay said:


Seams to be a lot of smoke building up around this issue.
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out, if I were to put on my tin foil hat for a moment I'd say they threw little Mike Sona under the bus as soon as the story broke in the hopes that it would appear to just be one rouge employee in one office. But with reports of all the other ridings popping up 7 the official tone of the calls (french & english) it's looking less like "the intern did it" and more like a calculated effort.
