Martin Buys NDP Support with Taxpayer Funds

Speaking of Jason, he notes [1]a report in The Globe and Mail [2] that Paul Martin has used taxpayer money to hold onto power.

Essentially it works like this:

In exchange for agreeing to the New Democratic Party’s demands for more spending on the environment, social housing, foreign aid and tuition reduction, the Liberals have secured a commitment of support on all no-confidence motions until the budget receives royal assent.

This is, as the G&M suggests….

…” a move that will force the Conservatives to rely on the separatist Bloc Quebecois if the party wishes to bring down the government in the coming weeks.

So, basicly, Jack Layton has signed onto the corruption, his denials not withstanding.
