In continuing with this week’s theme of unmasking the Liberal Party’s poor donation record, here is the info as requested by some of my readers.
Requested Names
John McCallum – Gave nothing to the Liberal Party but did donate to leadership contestants ($228.64 to Ignatieff and $28.64 to Hall Findlay, Kennedy, Bennet, Fry, Dion, and Brison)
Ken Dryden – $962.56
Maria Minna - $225
Scott Brison - $1100 (maximum)
Pablo Rodriguez - nothing
Bob Rae – $1084.60
Paul Martin – $962.56
Jean Chretien - nothing
Justin Trudeau - nothing
MPs who Gave Full Amount
Carolyn Bennett
Scott Brison
Irwin Cotler
Ujjal Dosanjh
Mark Eyking
Karen Redman
That’s a grand total of 6 MPs giving the maximum amount ($1100) out of a total Liberal caucus of 95. As a percentage it works out to 6.3%. What great team players they are!

Yes, but they're Liberals. Liberals don't pay for things, they get other people to pay for things. That's the Liberal way!
Re: Bob Rae and Scott Brison..
There are no zealots like the recently converted...
"Maria Minna - $225"
Really surprised Ms. Fillibuster actually gave something. I can't stand her.
I emailed David McGuinty re giving nothing to the liberal party in 2007. I received the following reply
Thank you for your email to Mr. McGuinty. Please forward your contact information (address and phone number) in the constituency of Ottawa South, and I will ensure that Mr. McGuinty has the opportunity to read your comments .
Sincerely,
Susan Paulin
Office of David McGuinty, M.P., Ottawa South
Is it normal or necessary for address and phone number to get a reply?
This is hilarious! How about that loudmouth Marlene Jennings from Notre Dame de Grace Riding in Montreal?
Great article in the Wall Street Journal a couple of days ago how the Democrats have ensured themselves perpetual funds by adding on to a bailout bill on mortgages a certain percentage for every mortgage that will go to a general slush fund for governors and mayors which will go to whomever they wish in activist groups.
"Is it normal or necessary for address and phone number to get a reply?"
Yes. It's called accountability. Elected officials need to know who they're responding to.
