If it's our money...

The Liberals are spending... why don't we get to see the receipts?

When Howard Hampton decides to stand shoulder to shoulder with John Tory, you know there's gotta be a real problem in there somewhere.
"That is the classic definition of a slush fund, where a minister gets to dole something out, no questions asked," said Tory.

"It would appear a significant amount of money went to groups that have a limited history in the community but are very closely tied to the McGuinty Liberal party," he told reporters.

"And we think the public deserves a full accounting."
