The way i remember it, the conservatives just wanted this issue to go away, someone actually loaned duffy the money to payback the government. This would have been a nice ending for the liberal adscam, but several liberals never paid back 1 cent of taxpayer money.
In my books, the conservative move to get duffy to pay back the money was much better than the liberal move to drag duffy through the courts.
Yes, it was a liberal witch hunt that targeted duffy, but mark my words....if duffy sues canada, the liberal spin will try to put the blame on the conservatives AND most liberal tax payers will accept it because accepting it is easier than admiting that they started this shit in the first place.
Btw, im still waiting for the adscam money to get returned but it aint coming
