"November 1st 2009 represents the fourth anniversary of the first report of the Commission of Inquiry into the Sponsorship Program and Advertising Activities, presided over by Justice Gomery. Despite the time that has passed, we are no closer to knowing which Federal Liberal riding associations benefited from the stolen taxpayer funds or where the missing $43 million dollars highlighted by Justice Gomery ultimately wound up.

The Standing committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics calls on the Auditor General of Canada to conduct a full audit of the sponsorship program to determine which federal Liberal riding associations received stolen funds and to clarify for Canadians who received the missing $43 million dollars".

"A better political system than a parliamentary democracy – based on the existence and competition of political parties – has, however, not yet been invented and successfully tested anywhere. Nor has an economic system that is better than a market economy, based on private ownership and private initiative and only a supplementary role of the state, been invented and successfully tested anywhere. What’s more, many of us believe that better systems will never be invented. I am one of these people."
