Thanks this post about the Duffy scandal and obvious public deception in the PMO.
OMG. WTF?

The Duffy scandal has caused every single reporter in the country to lose their minds and ask the same question over and over and over for the last year and especially the last month. It's embarrassing to watch. It's an on going investigation so no one is going to be able to answer any questions anyway but reporters can't stop doing the same thing and expecting a different result. They just want to make sure everybody thinks this is a big deal and a terrible signal that everything the government does is crooked as a barrel of snakes. So in relative terms, the Duffy thing is way over blown and way out of proportion.
As of today, there is one person who can reasonably expect to get a vote in my riding and that is absolutely by design. No one wants to waste time or money on us rubes who are just going to vote like a herd of donkeys anyway. So we get a party who puts roughly thirty seconds of thought into their offering to us. I know which one I'm more insulted by. You're more than welcome to tilt at whatever windmill you like.
