Liberals distancing themselves from Chretien

I don't know about you, but I don't find this reassuring. [Bolding mine]
"I have absolutely no doubt that these activities were being concealed from Mr. Martin and virtually anyone else of significance in the Liberal party," [Liberal party national director] MacKinnon said. The Prime Minister (Martin) cancelled the [sponsorship] program on his first day in office and I think that says a lot," MacKinnon added.
Actually it seems to speak volumes. Why would he cancel it his first day in office if he didn't have a clue what was going on? Just wondering.

In all of this, too, you have to wonder what the Canadian media knew and when they knew it. Surely there was one whistleblower in all those years. One rumor. One disgruntled employee who knew what was going on. A bit of gossip at one of those cocktail parties where the media likes to play Insider.
