Description | Paul Martin could be forgiven for feeling these days as though he's running against an undeclared but powerful rival: the RCMP.
The Liberal leader's campaign promise of a $500-million package to help the elderly, the disabled and family caregivers was obscured Friday by word police were looking into more allegations of mismanaged tax dollars in Quebec.
While Conservative rival Stephen Harper was detailing plans for child care and Jack Layton described the NDP version of a gun-crime crackdown, Martin found himself confronted with the latest whiff of scandal to plague his flagging campaign.
Martin's daily news conference was dominated by questions about a published report that the RCMP is looking into a controversial grant. |
