Susan Whelan’s Hard Work on behalf of DaimlerChrysler Helps Secure Essex Cty Jobs

So let me see if I've got this right. An ex-Chretien Liberal Cabinet Minister loses her seat in the Federal Election. Next comes an exemption from the Ethics Commissioner releasing her from those bothersome rules regarding ex-Ministers lobbying government.

“Susan Whelan’s hard-work for the Windsor-Essex automotive industry was an important factor in reaching an agreement between the Federal Government and DaimlerChrysler” said Prime Minister Martin. “Not only DaimlerChrysler, but many other local suppliers to DaimlerChrysler will benefit from this investment. This means jobs for hardworking Windsor and Essex County families."

The announcement was already overdue for months, and the local Windsor Star was reporting that an unnamed level of government was holding things up. I wonder which level of government that was? I guess it was just coincidental that the funding was finally announced after the election was called.

Where could the funding came from?

Could this have been one last round for the Liberal Cash Cow, or did they find something else to buy the taxpayers of Essex County with?

Kind of reminds me of drug dealers. Was this our free taste? Elect a Liberal and we get the rest of our stuff.

Certainly seems to be the message.
