Lee Getting Probed?

A tip of the hat to Tory MP Tory MP Rod Bruinooge who notified the ethics committee that he intends to introduce a motion for an investigation into the lobbying practices of Derek Lee. If we all believe that members of Parliament should not be actively employed as lobbyists while voting on behalf of constituents, then absolutely we need to investigate what he's done. I don't want to accuse Mr. Lee of any wrong doing, but I would like to encourage an investigation to ensure that he hasn't crossed that thin red line.

  1. A law firm that employs Derek Lee had a description of Lee as a lobbyist on the firm's website and Lee claimed he knew nothing about it. Yea right tell me another one.

  2. If we are to be fair and consistent Derek Lee should be invited after they are done the RJ and the busty hookers storyline.

  3. I have a feeling that a lot of other law firms are covering their asses right now. It is well known that lawyers KowTow to the Liberal Party to gain influence with the Natural Governing Party. Liberals increase their billing hours, don't ya know.

    Sad for them that the people are beginning to see through all the B.S. I have a feeling that the natural governing party will succumb soon to a decision between the NDP and The Conservatives. The Liberals will ,be the party of old men like me but who haven't been paying attention to the political landscape.
