NDP MP Pat Martin offers thorough, absolute apology to RackNine
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
Looking hungry isn't uncommon among University kids... The Dippers having that look in their eye is probably due to that.
It's okay caps. We can wash it all down on new years with some fireball and seven up.
I call it "fired up".
You like what I did there. ooh yeeeaaa
You're on!
We'll just have to make an agreement to leave any discussions involving politics at the door prior to the festivities
AWESOME!!!
So you keep saying. I'd love see why you keep saying that.
That's a very different tune to the one you were singing when Jack and company were threatening to sue the Sun.
I knew you were only paying lip service to Racknines suit.
Not in this case, the Dippers are the only sincere political party.
Don't you read Fuzzy`s cut & pases?
New Democrat MP Pat Martin, stated that RackNine was involved with the RoboCall scandal..
True, they were. The phone calls went through their phone system.
Pat Martin call them RackNine Rascals.. seriously, this is offensive?? You little Rascal CNDBear (don't sue me now) lol
So where is the lawsuit.. just by the fact that they claim on their web site they are providing "Web Hosting in Alberta" they are liars, they are resellers of hosting for Godaddy.com out of Arizona.
This is a $179/year reseller account.. certainly not worth 5 million dollars in lost revenue.
He bought a few servers.. took photos, o.k. and expense of many $10,000.. for the 5 servers..
I would like Meier to prove the lose of 5 million dollars in revenue..

Tad more than callng them Rascals i would say.
I apologize for any damage my statements may have caused to [RackNine president Matt Meier] personally or to RackNine Inc.,” he said.
On Feb. 23, Mr. Martin held a news conference where he blasted the company, comparing it to Groupaction Marketing Inc., whose president was convicted of fraud in relation to the Liberal sponsorship scandal in Quebec.
“I predict that RackNine will become the Conservative Party’s Groupaction, and I predict that we will find that the sheer magnitude and audacity of the ‘RackNine rascals’ will be enough to make Richard Nixon blush,” Mr. Martin said at the time.
On Monday, he specifically apologized for those remarks. As well, he said he had been authorized by the NDP for apologize on its behalf for similar remarks posted on the party website.
Mr. Martin said he now knows his statements insinuating RackNine participated “in an electoral fraud conspiracy were wholly and unequivocally false.”
“In my rush to express my personal outrage and the outrage of the New Democratic Party caucus, I jumped to conclusions I now know were unsupported by fact,” he said.
Elections Canada has been on the hunt for the person behind the robo-calls, who used a disposable cellphone registered to an alias to setup an account with RackNine. As of last month, there were 800 specific complaints from 200 ridings in 10 provinces and one territory regarding alleged fraud in last year’s federal election.
Well you can cause a little fiscal strife for a corporation and even apologize for it and all hell breaks loose. But if you cheat Canadians out of $10 billion dollars in order to steal an election, it's not any cause for concern.
At least this guy helped merge the two Conservative parties and gave more opportunities to the muzzle makers.
Never been in BC during the 90s were you. The master of disaster was so bad that major political motivated calamities are still called Glendogles.
I've been told I shouldn't drink Rye cause it makes me go whiteman. Which is fine cause I don't much like it anyway.
At least this guy did what Joe Clark would not which would be instrumental in unseating an arrogant, thieving, Liberal Government.
Like I said to you the last time, by your measure, Bell and/or Rogers would also be culpable. Or Toyota for that matter. I do use their product to move contraband cigarettes.
That wasn't all he said.
So?
There's a sucker born every minute. You should see the mark up I put on welding rods, gloves, and don't even get me started on the mark up I throw in when I fire up AutoCad.
Since he ignored the apology, I'm guessing his lawyers have something to that effect. I prefer jurisprudence, to BOOMer logic though.
Well I am waiting to see the out come of the lawsuit.. and everything else play out... interesting.
Betcha that we (as society) aren't that far off... There are some jurisdictions that have looked into holding gun manufacturing companies partially responsible for crimes involving their products. I suppose that it isn't that big a stretch to sue Nike or Adidas for aiding and abeting in the commission of crimes where the perp wore their shoes during the get away
