Below is a reprint of a post I put up on July 7th, 2006. I think this is important so that Ontarians realize what kind of government they are dealing with. The term “sponsorship scandal” does not only apply to federal Liberals.<\/p>\n
Liberal … Advertising … Is Your Spidey sense Tingling Now Too?<\/b><\/p>\n
Well it should be.<\/p>\n
Steve Janke has done it again<\/a>. In an incredible excercise of digging up the dirt, he may have just caught that Yellow Bellied McShifty<\/a> with his pants down.<\/p>\n It is no secret that businesses in Caledonia are suffering because of the land dispute. The provincial government, run by the Liberals under Premier Dalton McGuinty, has offered to help.<\/p>\n In true Liberal fashion, they are offering to help with advertising<\/em>.<\/p>\n …<\/p>\n An advertising agency that works in the Hamilton area called Play Advertising<\/a> was awarded the contract.<\/p>\n The head of the firm is Brian Torsney. His sister is Paddy Torsney<\/a>, a former Member of Parliament for Burlington for the federal Liberals. Burlington is near Hamilton. From 1985 to 1989, she was a special assistant to David Peterson, at the time the Liberal premier of Ontario.<\/p>\n The same David Peterson who was assigned the task of negotiating on behalf of the province in the Caledonia dispute.<\/p>\n Interesting.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
