Mr. Speaker, I wish he had the courage to make those accusations outside so that we could sue him.
On February 7, 2013, the Prime Minister's chief of staff wrote the following to his colleagues: “A purpose of this is to put Mike in a different bucket and to prevent him from going squirrelly in a bunch of weekend panel shows.”
That is what people in the Prime Minister's entourage were doing to protect Senator Duffy.
Was the Prime Minister okay with his chief of staff playing a part in the schemes to protect Senator Duffy and prevent his excessive and illegal spending from turning into a political scandal?
