| Wow they used to at least try and hide patronage. But they are so desperate for power that they are pulling out all the stops. They also know that they will get away with it because the electorate is sleeping. |

Tory MP says Liberals offered perks for budget support
Last Updated Wed, 18 May 2005 21:09:06 EDT
CBC News
OTTAWA - Conservative MP Gurmant Grewal alleges that the Liberals offered him plum posts if he helped their minority government survive.
Grewal said the Liberals promised him an ambassadorship or Senate seat for his wife Nina, also a Tory MP, if he didn't vote against their budget in a confidence vote on Thursday.
Grewal alleges he made an audio recording of the offer, which he said came from Liberal Health Minister Ujjal Dosanjh and Tim Murphy, Prime Minister Paul Martin's chief of staff.
"I was given an understanding that I would be rewarded in some fashion," Grewal said at a news conference Wednesday evening.
"Some of the options discussed were different diplomatic appointments or a future senate seat for Nina." The Liberals dismissed the claim as nonsense.
Grewal came under fire a few days ago after news broke that the federal government had asked police to investigate the MP over allegations of impropriety in immigration cases.
Grewal, an MP from Surrey, B.C., denied the accusation, saying it was completely unfounded.
Grewal's allegation came a day after Belinda Stronach, who ran for the leadership of the Conservative party in early 2004, crossed the floor to the Liberal party and joined Martin's cabinet.
* FROM MAY 17, 2005: Conservative Stronach joins Liberals
Her defection from the Conservatives gives the Liberal-NDP coalition on the budget a total of 151 votes, not including Speaker Peter Milliken, a Liberal MP who votes only in the case of a tie.
The Conservatives and Bloc Québécois, who had threatened to oppose the budget, hold a combined total of 152 votes.
There are three Independent MPs, only one of whom has said she will vote with the Liberals. |

The truth is finally coming out |
