More Canadian Corruption

  Canadian Immigration Minister Judy Sgro resigned after promising an Indian immigrant to help him "resolve" his immigration problems if he provided "campaign volunteers." Harjit Singh has spent 16 years trying to manipulate the system, despite numerous criminal investigations and a $900,000 bank fraud under current investigation.

Judy Sgro was already under ethics investigation for issuing a temporary visa to a Romanian stripper who also, coincidentally, worked on her campaign. Her reasons for helping the stripper?
Sgro in the meantime has said the stripping industry needs workers and she does not want the industry to die. Sgro maintains "the federal program is needed to fill a labour shortage of exotic dancers"...

The story illustrates the politicalization of immigration in Canada to the extent that Toronto is a Third World City, complete with rat-borne SARS, a disease rarely seen outside of the filthy conditions of the Orient. Toronto, too, is a sanctuary for groups who fundraise for terrorist groups. Like the Democrats in the U.S., the Liberals in Canada have too long been unopposed. Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.
