Good work, Andrew.

The real bottom line here though is:

The huge honesty gap!

You simply can not rely on anything Peter MacKay says, or Stephen Harper for that matter.

The price gap is quite probably in the ballpark this article suggests, if not higher - after all they have not finished designing or 'mass' producing them yet have they and we all know how that goes.

It is interesting that the con MacKay and Harper are now trying to hand us that the "yawning" 10 billion price gap is simply a matter of "accounting" took over a week for them to come up with after the AG shone his light into this dark corners of government and assisted the process of holding governments accountable.

I wonder how many focus groups they held to find that not so true but plausible explanation.

Anybody check out the Pete-pic at:

Pete-pic

and compared to famous Richard Nixon's caricatures "I am not a crook".
When you look at the pic of Pete you can almost imagine him saying "I am not a liar"
