Loading ...Harper sues Liberal Party over Cadman bribery accusations
Thursday, March 13th, 2008
March 3 to 13, 2008 - Stephen Harper is suing the Liberal Party for defamation and libel over accusations made on their website claiming Harper knew of an alleged attempt to bribe late independent MP Chuck Cadman in 2005.
Harper asked Stéphane Dion and other Liberals to apologize for the defamation, but they refused and continued their attacks in the House of Commons where they are protected by parliamentary privilege.
Outside the House, Liberals wrote the RCMP requesting a criminal investigation.

Harper IS a terrible prime minister. But don’t worry, he’s working his way up to General Secretary of Convservatist Party.
Anyone else notice how its not very clear that the statement is what Harper wants them to say.
Not to confident about the NDP (policies are great, but they’re new) …so Weed Party?
On a serious note, Harper scares me, and all he does is lower the taxes for his ultra rich buddies and widen the wealth gap to point where its slowed our economy…
