The latest allegations against Harper's media bag carrier turned distinguished Senator, Mike Duffy, is that he paid a friend $65,000 for no apparent legitimate services. His friend described the work as looking up things on the Internet. Maybe he checked out my Blog?
The real question is why Senator Duffy has not resigned his seat? I called this one the day he was appointed. He was appointed a senator to raise money for Harper and the conservatives. He was the most partisan Tory ball washer in the Canadian media. His reward was a senate seat and he took full advantage of his entitlements and then some.
We learnt today that he tried to backdate contracts for his buddy but the senate bureaucrats refused to do so to their credit. This is the same man that tried to apply for a PEI health card through back channels to prove his primary residence was on the island. The local Liberal government refused to play along.
This is a man that longed for a senate appointment and the Order of Canada for years. There will be no Order of Canada medal and his legacy will be in tatters. He may be the man to bring down the institution of the Senate.
