The Big Question - Where did the money go?? 
Posted to Jim Elve's Group Election Blog.

The Adscam specifics appear to be coming out slowly. Individuals or small businesses that were involved have been coming clean on their involvement with the sponsorship money that was siphoned off by the ad agencies. Today, Greg Weston details one such example regarding a Health Canada contract.

The question that remains unanswered is “Where did the money go?”

Did these advertising agencies pocket the money, funnel it to the Liberal party, or was it, as has been alleged, used to buy personal gifts for the families of politicians and senior beurocrats?

You have to believe that Martin and those in the PMO deciding on election timing have a pretty good idea what will be coming out still. I don't know what to think of their current actions and what it means with respect to these allegations.

One criticism of Martin over the past month has been that he went 'over the top' in condeming those involved in Adscam and getting 'mad as hell'. Would those criticisms exist if it became apparent that there were personal gains for Quebec politicians and their friends? Will Martin appear less connected to these future revelations than if he took a softer stance in February?

Mike Duffy laid out some serious allegations several weeks ago and not much has come of it yet. Remember his words: “..this will all come out. It may take a while but it will all come out and it's going to blow this town wide open.”
