Stand-Ins

Remember Adscam? Remember Gomery?

Well, Jean Lafleur remembers and he ain't smelling so great these days - wherever he may be.

Seems the good Monsieur has flown the coop, gone into hiding, perhaps running a hot dog stand on the Kona Coast. After all, he's only wanted for 35 counts of fraud. He only stole Millions of Canadian taxpayers' hard earned dollars.

Well, I have a suggestion for the constabulary.

While we are waiting for Lafleur to magically re-appear, why don't we hold Jean Chretien as hostage or material witness or maybe just as bargaining tool?

Am I awake yet? Am I dreaming again? You mean real life isn't like the movies? The bag guys don't get caught in the final reel? Sheeesh!
