A frequent contributor of provocative analyses and insights, The Salamander left a comment on one of yesterday's posts that I am taking the liberty of featuring here. I strongly recommend that you take a look at the Huffington Post link he provides at the outset, offering, as it does, some insights into the morally 'ambiguous' world of Harper cabinet minister Kellie Leith and her paid position with Dundee Reitt, which has large contracts with government tenants and widespread interests in the oil and resource industries.
Ms Leitch failed to reveal this relationship to the Federal Ethics Commissioner, despite the fact that she did not resign from the company until some five months after her election. Conflict of interest? You bet. At home in the world of Harper 'morality'? Right again:
.. I'm sure you've come across this bizarre info ..

The hits just keep on coming .. !
Since the Black Swans have arrived en masse
and are circling Stephen Harper
and dozens of his despicable lickspittles
I think it wise to consider who is the most dangerous person in Ottawa ?
No.. not the Duffster.. not Pammy..
and sorry, not 'The Distinguished' Globe n Mail's Yank, Tom Flanagan
Nope, not Ray Novak, Stephen Lecce or Fantino or Jenni Byrne
Conflict Oil Ezra ..? not even close..
Slack Jaw Joe Oliver ? Nope .. (thanks MoS)
the mysterious Quebecois Un F_ck Withable .. (maybe !! So watch out !!)
But.. how about an un-named IT geek or sysop or aide or contractor
tasked to search and delete n wipe all PMO email servers, drives
re ANY Wright/Duffy emails, comms
and ensure any hard copy binders, folders, memos, cc's
are gone, gone .. fried .. permanently redacted to black on black, dead !!
Now there's someone the RCMP can track and turn ..
After all .. somebody is paying them for that expertise .. and service
They have a name, a job description and hey !! An immediate supervisor !!
And that supervisor has someone above them ..
and likely, none of them will ever get to be on an ENERGY board of directors..
or be fabulously wealthy like the upper echelon of the Harper food chain
We can't identify this person (or team) who can blow Stephen Harper
out of the water.. and all his pompous trained n whipped seals ???
Any beat cop, detective would have ID'd such an obvious target
in the 1st 5 minutes..
So lets get real ..
This is Canada.. last time I took a breath ...
and if Stephen Harper has trouble recognizing that..
or has never understood us ..
c'est la vie ..
well that's his problem..
Remarkable. People in the Nasty Party have learned absolutely nothing.
ReplyDeleteThe greater the hubris, the greater the potential for a long fall, Owen.
DeleteI assume the PMO servers have backups available of their server data - this is a basic requirement for disaster recovery required of any organization, whether it be governmental or corporate.
ReplyDeleteThe RCMP could reconstitute the states of these servers at different points in time. That is to say, documents or emails deleted in the past could be recovered using the backups.
However, if the backups have been destroyed, then that's a whole other ballgame.
From the tantalizing information released by his lawyer, it would seem that Mr. Duffy has 'backups' of some of the contentious emails, even if the Harper regime has wiped their own servers clean, Anon.
DeleteTrue enough, Lorne. But if the the RCMP does its job, there might be even more 'tantalizing' information available from the source.
