In Canada we have a saying, "Absolute power corrupts absolutely." Many people around the world may use these same words in directly the same manner. However, it is in Canada that this saying could be the campaign slogan for the Liberal party and they would still win an election.

In recent days dramatic testimony has all but condemned the Liberal hierarchy for corrupt and criminal behavior. Yet the Liberals may yet come away as no worse the wear, as the complications and rebuttals are already in place or being prepared. The main stream media of Canada has a hard time sticking anything to the Liberals that will resonate with voters.

Well in turn the Conservatives or whatever name they run under are hampered by an election machine that can’t be defeated. Many pundits and for that matter Liberals themselves have repeatedly claimed that they are most successful at winning elections above all else.... well it is only now that we see how right they were. The covers are struggling to come off what could be the biggest corruption scandal in Canada's history. The Liberal election machine may be finely tuned for winning elections, but at what cost was this done?

As mainstream media has failed the public time and again in its coverage and explanation of Liberal strategy, it is the responsibility of the public to find new mediums for information. I hope to play a small part in this field and will provide more insight in the coming days. Tuesday, April 05, 2005 at 12:26 AM
