WTF indeed! Just another example of the priveleges that come with power. Tax-free portions of salary, special treatment at airports, and now freedom for DUI and concaine possession. Sure those Tories want to to "get tough on criminals" unless of course it's one of their own. Perhaps this was all negotiated while our PM was at the Olympics clapping his hands with the Premier of BC, like a couple of schoolgirls at a Jonas Brothers concert.

I used to avoid anything that Andrew Coyne wrote. But I have recently come to appreciate some of his views on the CBC political panel and I most certainly agree with this Macleans commentary.

I would like to know how Mr. Mulroney's children were able to use $1000 Canadian bills in New York? Presumably they would have to exchange for U.S. currency. This would probably require answering some questions and or forms. Even cashing $1000 Canadian bills in Canada is difficult.
