Despite
the suspensions from the Senate of Pamela Wallin, Mike Duffy and Patrick
Brazeau, the Senate expense scandal isn't over by a long shot. Prime
Minister Minister Harper is expected to face more grilling during
Question Period in the House of Commons which resumes this week.
Beausejour
Liberal M-P Dominic Leblanc tells Tide News the Prime Minister won't be
able to put this behind him because most people don't buy his version
of events. Leblanc goes on to say Harper is known as the most
controlling Prime Minister in a generation so it defies belief to think
he didn't know what was going on in his own office.
Leblanc
also points out it is not out of the realm of possibility that Harper
could be called to testify under oath at a criminal trial if charges are
laid.
The
Conservatives, meantime, have begun a new attack campaign against
federal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau. Federal Justice Minister Peter
McKay is comparing Trudeau to Toronto Mayor Rob Ford both of whom he
says used drugs while in office.
