Canadian Politics and Golf Balls

Post by brianeyci »

CBC wrote:Chrétien ended the day by taking a theatrical shot at inquiry commissioner Gomery, who said in a controversial year-end media interview that he found the fact the Prime Minister's Office had golf balls made up with Chrétien's signature to be "small town cheap."

A smiling Chrétien proceeded to pull from his briefcase golf balls that he said he'd received from people from small towns, including U.S. President George W. Bush and former president Bill Clinton.

While Gomery sat impassive and expressionless through the golf ball show, it drew loud laughter from the audience.
linky.

He also pulled a golf ball of a company that Gomery's daughter works for.

Didn't create this thread to mock Gomery though -- more to talk about whether Chretien's shrewd testimony yesterday will derail the comission, and your thoughts on it.

I always shook my head when I read how much went to 'communication' firms for what they did. Talk about a good waste of our money.
