The conservative blame shifters are at it again

 "If someone like a federal minister in the Harper government withholds pertinent information from the investigation then that is not the fault of investigators that is politcal underhanded tactics."

"It is easy to question why the RCMP did not interview Harper era ministers but then ask yourself how many times have you heard law enforcement request - anyone with information please contact - yet a former minister sat on the information for two years while Vice Admiral Norman languish in legal limbo.... for what.... political gamemanship to discredit the government?"


RCMP defends 'thorough, independent' investigation into Vice-Admiral Mark Norman


OTTAWA -- The RCMP is defending its investigation of Vice-Admiral Mark Norman, which has come under sustained fire since the politically charged case against the military's former second-in-command collapsed earlier this week.
Much of that criticism has centred on why the Mounties did not interview members of Stephen Harper's former Conservative government during their two-year investigation into allegations Norman leaked cabinet secrets.
That was despite accusations Norman provided confidential information about a $700-million shipbuilding contract to a Quebec shipyard, its lobbyists or the media on 12 occasions starting in September 2014 -- when the Tories were in power.
