Re: Re: Re: Re: Flanagan to Conservatives: Suck it up!

I have to agree here, and I think this is a story within itself.

the judge who signed the search warrant was a liberal appointee and donates to the party. I won't accuse the judge of being politically biased but the questions need to be asked. Why was it necessary to look for a Superior Court Judge in Toronto when there are plenty of Superior Court judges down the street for CPC HQ in Ottawa?

I won't accuse the judge of political bias either, but I'm not afraid to suggest that maybe the judge was politically motivated. There is definately a question here about why they went to Toronto. Having been to Parliament Hill, and I'm sure many others here have also, once you step out onto the front lawns on the Hill, turn your head to the right and you'll see the Supreme Court of Canada, not a 5 minute walk away. Not even a 2 minute shuttle ride. There's really no excuse for having to go to Toronto to "find" a supreme court judge.
