No matter your politics, the late Jim Flaherty (who was Stephen Harper’s Finance Minister) is widely regarded as a stand-up guy – honest, sincere, and reliable.
That’s what makes Flaherty’s reaction to Stephen Harper talking about the Mike Duffy payment by Nigel Wright during Question Period in the House of Commons so incriminating.
Tim Powers, vice-chairman of Summa Strategies and a Conservative strategist, had this to say after viewing the video: “If a picture tells a thousand words I imagine many of Jim’s would have been ‘holy’ and ‘shit’.”
