Bye Bye Sorbara

[Weekly]

Four search warrants served by the Mounties Tuesday morning say there are reasonable grounds to believe that Mr. Sorbara and others defrauded Royal Group shareholders in relation to the sale of a property in Brampton, Ont. in 1996. The RCMP is also investigating possible fraud charges against Mr. Sorbara and several Royal Group executives concerning related party transactions and the filing of a false or misleading prospectus.

Doesn't this belong in the Politics Forum?

Buisness as usual for a Liberal these days

Business fraud is basically promising somebody somthing and then not delivering on it. Is anybody surprised considering who it is? In the business comunity you are held to a higher standard of accountability.

 

[Cardinal Fang]

Both the Liberals and Conservatives are guilty of fraud. This includes all aspects and definitions of fraud.

There have been a number of scandals over the past few years, and White-Collar crime is becoming a focus of police investigation. It's about time, but you have to wonder when De Zen, Sorbara, Gagliano et al will start to cry out about racial profiling

Power...

Just another example of how power corrupts people. It is time to kick the Liberals out. For those that say that all parties are corrupt - you are correct (to a certain degree), however the Liberals have been in power for far too long and have gotten used to being able to rip the public off at will. Unfortunately most people are naive and when the Liberals bring out the bribes and the "carrots" they tend to forget all the scandals and lies and broken promises.

Vote them out - even if only for one term. Teach them that we can be pushed only so far. If you want honest politicians you can't give them to much power - or leave them in power for too long.

Change is GOOD!

This is the "Provincial Liberal Party" who's members generally fail an opportunity to trash their Federal counterparts. You should be advised that this group has been in power less than 3 years and have already fix the problems economically left to them by the previous Ontario Government, oh that happened to be a conservative.

Obviously you're a Harper Conservative (I say that because most real conservatives would like to see Harper gone), who has foot in mouth decease when it comes to the Liberals - blame, blame, without really thinking about what they are saying or doing.

If you want honest politicians, you need to be better informed than your post indicates.

Can't say I know much about Canadian provincial politics, but if "fixing a problem" involves raising taxes, it's not much of a fix..isn't it?
