By Montreal Simon Well as you know I’ve long predicted that Mike Duffy would be Stephen Harper’s nemesis. That he knew enough to expose the conniving thugs in the PMO and their shameless scams. And today he appears to have done just that. From the Globe and Mail: “Disgraced Senator Mike Duffy says the infamous […]
PMO
What’s in the Duffy e-mails?
By Alison@Creekside According to Mike Duffy, the PMO blackmailed him into taking a bribe to save his own skin and that of the Cons from the wrath of their base.
