He has a wife, children and grandchildren. Those who know him are all saying the same thing - they never suspected - didn't see this coming - etc, etc.

I highly doubt even if the relationship was "in the crapper" that somehow will make it any easier on them.

Point one, is a bigger issue. I didn't know he was on "official bidniss" at the time.
For his constituents and Albertans as a whole, yes that's the bigger issue - to his wife and family - not so much.

I like a couple of the quotes from this piece.

No one looks at a case of sexual exploitation, whether it be a child or otherwise, and thinks ‘I’m OK with this.” That disgust should be transferred to what Allen got himself involved in. It was (in his own words) a “profound lapse of personal judgement.”
