I would seriously look into if Prentice is on the take for all these actions. Who would fight so hard for big business against the majority of the population of canada unless the were getting payed big bucks or kick backs. I think this politicain is very dirty. I think an invesigation should be done into his personal finances for the next 10 years, under the Harper, govenment accountablity election promisess.
