That scrum for all the people saying I was ignoring that Mulcair story. #hw
Mulcair: I hadn't seen any cash. Others knew so that moved it forward. #hw There was no information to support a criminal investigation. #hw
Mulcair: PM's office telling us there is no document. Someone wanted Duffy to shut up. #hw
Mulcair: with what I saw in 1994, a criminal charge was not possible. Things came later. #hw
I think I may be flabbergasted by Baird's characterization of a Senate committee as an "independent" investigative body. #hw
In a few minutes, Liberal MP Kevin Lamoureux will rise to request an emergency debate on all that stuff going on with the Senate. #hw
That was really weird. I don't think I've ever seen a speaker end #QP early (It was 2:57 by my clock.) #QP
MPs are arguing over whether the clock in the House of Commons has struck 3 pm or not #hw
John Baird is asked what 2 independant bodies are investigating...oddly ....he refuses to answer #hw #cdnpoli
Oh, good, Nathan Cullen now up and asking if one of those authorities is the RCMP -- "and if so, why not?" #QP
Sweet lord, Nathan Cullen just asked a follow up. #hw
I refuse to call this Senate gate. #hw
Goodale asks govt to table all emails between Chief of Staff and Senator Duffy. John Baird avoids answering...that means No #hw #cdnpoli
Baird calling the Senate the "other place". #hw
I do wish opposition MPs could adjust, restructure their questions on the fly. Some of them are lawyers aren't they? #hw
Specifically, he'd like to know if the minister thinks the PM's former chief of staff may have committed a crime by giving Duffy money. #QP
So, is Baird saying there was no agreement - or document, or memo of understanding, or whatever - at all? #QP
Trudeau asks the Govt to apologize for the Senate scandal....Nope...I haven't heard a sorry yet. #hw #cdnpoli
Charlie Angus notes that PMO seems to be taking crisis communications tips from Rob Ford. #QP
