You will forgive us for not bowing to journalistic convention and referring to a “perception” of influence-peddling when talking about Ontario’s useless party financing laws. There is no “perception” that something is awry. The fact of the matter is that, thanks to the province’s legislated indifference to normal standards of behaviour and morality, Ontario’s Liberal government practises the systematic selling of access to wealthy donors from the corporate and labour worlds.
I find it hard to believe that this sort of thing is still going on (among all parties). Time to demand an end.
