Guite Testimony Unleashed

AC has all the coverage - dang he's fast. Wait, I guess that's his job. Here's a partial transcript and here are the basics from the man running the sponsorship program:
  • The program was "150% politically driven"
  • Policies were created to ensure Liberal friendly firms got their share
  • Gagliano and Cretien directly involved
  • Both Paul Martin and John Manley implicated in steering, guaranteeing contracts
  • "Catchall" sponsorship money was speant in China and Italy (Gomery quiped "Not a lot of sovereigntists in China, is there")

Of course, the denials are everywhere, Guite is not exactly a saint, and corroboration is hard to come by...

Update: This is a sweet post from Paul Wells on Guite's testimony.
