Like although Dave Basi and Bobby Virk pleaded guilty, Aneal Basi had his charges STAYED.<br /><br />The monies went to three defendants Counsel. One of the three Counsels, Aneal Basi's lawyer called Joe Doyle, shouldn't have his fees for services rendered lumped in with the purported $Six million. Probably closer to $5 million for the remaining TWO Counels.<br /><br />And having said that ....Aneal Basi's charges being stayed, his tab was picked up by ORIGINAL Indemnity clause, remained in existence... right????<br /><br />How is it that two Deputy Ministers rewrote the Singular Indemnity clause and made it into two Separate Indemnity clauses? Or were there THREE Indemnity clauses.... of course there were three, for three individuals.<br /><br />Can we have a peek at those three, or rather FIVE, Indemnity Contracts, especially the dates?North Van's Grumpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17571810726275726952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-78201000048749367852012-05-09T02:02:27.690-07:002012-05-09T02:02:27.690-07:00a little off topic - Did Basi & Virk have to p...a little off topic - Did Basi & Virk have to pay the HST on that $6mm deal?

Politicians are not permitted to lie, deceive, thieve and lie and cheat to win elections. Even two Lords, from the House of Lords, went to prison for theft and corruption. <br /><br />Harper rewards scum like henchman Campbell. Harper and Campbell both should be tried for treason, and flung into one, of Herr Harper's new stalags.<br /><br />Christy wants to change the name of the Liberals Party. I think she should call the party, the Northern Foundation Party.

Tamara Vrooman Deputy Finance and Robert Lapper Acting Deputy Attorney General. Page 1 of 57<br /><br />July 18, 2005<br /><br />"....Note that I have not yet discussed this (Indemnity) with the new Attorney General. If you are prepared to accept the recommendation, I suggest that we arrange to have both the Attorney General and the Minister of Finance <b>briefed on this before</b> proceeding."<br /><br />new Attorney General.... de Jong???? which sort of implies that the OLD Attorney General, Wally, was privy to the information.<br /><br />And then if you go to page 12 of 57 a letter addressed to Bobby Virk:<br /><br /> "......In considering coverage (indemnity), the Government will likely require further information with respect to the matters arising directly from the performance in good faith of your duties. Further, any indemnity in that regard which may be extended to you must be <b>in a form satisfactory to the Attorney General</b>, and must, in particular, <b>exclude any payment of legal fees</b>, disbursement or expenses other than with respect to the particular matter that is the subject of the indemnity."<br /><br />Where is this document?
