He was threatened, to take money to pay back public debt. In such an oddthing to force someone to do. Its why I dont have any issue with the money being given or even forced to be taken on this case. Heck they should have loaned him the money publicly.
I dont get why this started, why would anyone try to cover up a senator mis-using his expense account. That is not even a scandle anymore. We all know they all abuse their priveledges.
The problem for me here is the coverup, and if the emails showing that Harper had knowledge of the situation surface he needs to go. But who actually emails there illegal plans. If I am bribing a guy why would I give thatguy permenant documentation that I am bribing him.
This whoe thing would have been a non issue if they just came out and said the CPC repayed the money our senator stole from canadians and we have made arrangements for him to pay it back. Instead it gets covered uo and becomes a real integrity issue.
