Unfortunately, the Conservatives missed the boat with their billion-dollar muck-up, their partisan spending and their $2 million fake lake. The worst part is that most of the contracts were awarded without a tendering process. In other words, it is payback time for the party's pals. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2043356\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Why is the <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">Prime Minister</a> using these summits to promote his party instead of his country?</p>",

Pire, on apprend aussi que la majorit\u00e9 des contrats ont \u00e9t\u00e9 octroy\u00e9s sans appels d'offres. Autrement dit, les petits amis du parti pourraient profiter d'un retour d'ascenseur. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2043356\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Pourquoi le <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">premier ministre</a> se sert-il de ces sommets pour promouvoir son parti au lieu de son pays?</p>"
