Corruption, conflict of interest (Hazel), no big deal. It wasn't like they were alleged to be smoking pot.

P.S. The previous Montreal mayor Gerald Tremblay was forced to resigned under suspicion of corruption. Tremblay sounds like a Francophone name.

My goodness counsellor, it would seem you have formed an opinion without seeing the evidence. Are you just happy that the heat is off the Quebec Liberals and Charest for stonewalling the establishment of this commission for so many years ? Or that Laval's mayor was a Gilles Vaillancourt was a Liberal supporter.

You also appear to have come to the conclusion that this is not politically motivated (as your comments obviously are) or have anything to do with Marois earlier statements that all elected officials in Quebec need to be francophones.

Their special

6 current and former Quebec mayors have been arrested for one reason or another in recent years.
And can pretty well guarantee that they were NOT Tories !!!

But can pretty well guarantee that they were of the "entitled" left/Lib.

It's funny how they think they can avoid getting caught.

But let's be honest, it'd be really tempting to sort of, kind of ask for, you know, a little something when approving that zoning change that'll make some asshole developer obscenely rich. I'd be sorely tempted, anyhow.
