Do you think we would see a Canadian PM in jail for similar actions/charges?
Again, I don't know why, I just don't see it. No proof to support my position as with before.
I don't mean to derail this thread, I bring up Canada as a point that it may not be American partisan that prevents jail time, just the office itself.
