It’s Hard to Survive on $1 Billion!
Saturday, May 24th, 2008Apparently, making ends meet at the taxpayer-funded CBC is a difficult exercise.

In fact, I’ve been critical of Dalton on that topic here, here and here. However, as bad as Dalton’s economic stewardship is, Howard Hampton and his band of merry socialists would be much worse!
Here’s what Hampton had [...]
