The perfect crime perhaps?
Remember that missing gold from the Canadian Mint I spoke of a couple, maybe three months ago; well guess what…they didn’t find it.
Yep, that’s right, after an external audit conducted by Deloitte; the story isn’t any further ahead than it was then. Really, they don’t know shit.
Oh well, it’s a good thing that during these tough times (don’t really know how tough it is in Canada though), the Canadian government is still able to pay its bills, and somewhere on this planet there just might be a couple of somebodies living it up. I think this quite the heist if it is proven to be one, and you know what, it will be interesting to see what an RCMP investigation will turn up.
I would be looking at those who did the hiring, and of course nepotism, if I was on the case.
Either a family did this, co-workers did it, or didn‘t happen at all.
Then again it could have been a half-dozen or so individuals that had nothing to do with another that snuck in under the radar, and stole small amounts on several ocassions to go undetected.
If it is a theft, more than person is responsible, that’s for sure I think.
Shame on the former Liberal government for once again not paying attention to what Canadians are paying them to look after, almost everything government related.
The Canadian Mint was at one time, and for pretty much the last time, a crown corporation, wasn’t it?
I’m saying the theft can and should be blamed on the Liberals in power before the new breed of conservatives snatched power from the idiots in the Liberal government who for whatever reason thought it was necessary to scrutinize what was going on in a crown corporation.
Canadian Liberals hear what I am saying, and there is little doubt in my mind that some of them might agree with me.
The way I see it, there already has to be a few “unhappy campers” in the Liberal Party who are thinking to themselves that they are sitting on the wrong side of the House, and if this gold thing blows up in their face, well that might be the straw that breaks the camel’s back for them. It would hard for the Liberal Party to regain the power they lost if it turns out the heist happened on their watch.
I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but for some reason or another I get the distinct impression that things haven’t been too “maple syrupy good” for Liberal MPs since the days former party leader Stephane Dion first began announcing that things were good in the party, that he had a “strong team” to take into the next election, which by the way they lost anyway.
We’ll see what happens, but if this “missing gold” thing is pinned on them, watch MPs cross the floor to either sit as an Independent, or join the Conservatives. They, the fairly new Liberals anyway, would want to distance themselves from the party if it turns out there is any connection between the former Liberal government and the missing gold.
Who can blame them.
Anyway, somebody stole the gold and is now living the good life abroad and laughing, or the gold never existed.
