Yet when Rahim Jaffer, the husband of a Tory MP, is charged with drunk driving and cocaine possession, he gets to plead down to "careless driving". One can only assume Jaffer had some help from his friends in very high places. One law for them, another law for the "little people." Maybe now more Canadians will realize what a bunch of brazen hypocrites these so-called "conservatives" really are. Russell Barth, Ottawa - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
