Liberal MP Dominic LeBlanc asked the RCMP to investigate the allegations, and today released the the RCMP’s response. Despite the RCMP findings, Stéphane Dion and other Liberals say they will continue to press the government on the alleged attempted bribery of the deceased MP.
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.
