RE: frustration with Smith. I am frustrated because of the political timing of the announcement. Turning the Arena deal into more of a political game than it already was is frustrating to watch.
She can be as suspicious as she likes, and even have legit reasons to do so. At this point i wouldn't be surprised by anything.

But she categorically stated there is some secret agreement that she was made aware of yesterday.

Well....what is it? Who benefits? Why not just disclose what she knows?

She is playing politics just as much as Smith is, and its pretty obvious as to why. She/NDP have been backed into a corner. Politically is was a very shrewd move by UCP to make this an election issue whether you like the move or not.

Also I believe this had to be announced before tomorrow or it would have to be shelved til after May 29.

Its actually pretty fascinating to be a spectator to this whole thing.
