Businessmen made millions on Regina land that wound up in taxpayers' hands

[bucket]

Wall sat at the cabinet table and anyone that helped approve the deal by also putting up their hands should be held responsible.

All they had to do is look at the expropriation file and see something was amiss.

Boyd been paid well .

If anyone can do math....its pretty obvious that the taxpayers paid Boyd's rent to Tappauf.

I hope someone digs deeper.

There is more to this than meets the eye.

No one sues for reporting the facts.

They want this in front of the courts to say " no comment" and to close any furthur investigation.

2 businessman make 11 million on a 21 million dollar piece of land on an infrastructure project.

Wtf will happen with the 300 million trudeau has dedicated to saskatchewan?

Sorry no link but in the huffpost wall is backing Boyd and Boyd is talking legal action against the CBC

Maybe wrong but those guys maybe just went all in on a losing hand.

[RTK]

Boyd talking legal action - how can he not think that this was wrong; if this was all private money I could careless what a bunch or businessmen want to trade land for; but this was public money; your money; my money and these clowns come up with value of 103k per acre?

You guys may want to look into the crown corp boards also

This neither here nor there but Bucket, I think a good part of why Harper got kicked was because Trudeau was smart enough to know that half the people in this country detest the fact that people are prosecuted for possession of a gentle herb. Duh!

Two points:

If you need to ask if you have a conflict of interest....then in all probability you do have one


And secondly...there is a tenant that says ...the perception that one has put themselves in a compromising position in regards to a "conflict" is equally as important to the future of democratic government.

I'm afraid that this is yet another instance of poor judgement of elected leadership; outright greed and squandering scarce resources ...for the benefit of those close to inside information.

Now why would anyone condone that by giving those same persons four more years?

THAT shows really bad moral judgement at a whole different level.

Maybe we get the government that we deserve????

There was likely some political posturing with this revelation but it doesn't make it any less sickening.

The new owners of the "windfall land" should have been subjected to the same rules as every other land owner who had to give up real estate for the by pass. Maybe the other land owners should take the government to court for "unfair treatment". Precedence was set albeit after the fact. It would be interesting to see when the acquisitions were made for the other land in relation to the "windfall land".

Some heads need to roll, big heads, before too long, if there is any face to be saved before April 4, if it isn't already too late. Hurry up Brad, time is of the essence. If "department heads" of a private/public corportion squandered money like that they would be escorted out of the building. ****ing
stupid.

.......and no scapegoats or patsies falling on department head's and Minister's swords. Right, Mr. Wall?
