Coyne: why would we trust Liberals again?

A very good question, in light of the recent AG report, and all the files on which there was little or no action. 
 
So in some ways, the Auditor-General's latest report is the most damning of all. There is no way to deny or minimize the stark reality of what it contains: Liberal cabinet ministers colluded in a scheme of deception -- fraud is another word -- to hide the mounting costs of the gun registry. They did so, what is more, not to avoid mere embarrassment or criticism, but to defy the will of Parliament. Having been told they could not spend more than a certain figure, they did, and cooked the books to conceal what they had done.
 
Read the whole thing.  If Canadians get used to a government doing what it says it will do, the Liberal party is going to need some serious reworking.
