MONTREAL (CP) - One-time prominent Liberal Jacques Corriveau wants Quebec Superior Court to reject a lawsuit filed against him in connection with the federal sponsorship scandal. Corriveau's lawyers say in court documents filed in Montreal that he and his ad firm never benefited improperly from federal contracts. The sponsorship program was set up to promote federalism following the slim No side victory in the 1995 Quebec referendum.
An inquiry into the program found that payments to the Liberal Party from Corriveau and nine ad firms totalled more than $2.5 million - including at least $679,000 in illicit cash.
Corriveau was never charged with any crime and denies any wrongdoing.
He says in his defence the attorney general is responsible for the federal government and the actions of its political staff and civil service.
