And now the scot with the temper that's hot,
-
Not Synced
it's Jock McBile with Get Stuffed!
-
Not Synced
Tonight, it's gonna be a history lesson,
-
Not Synced
the saga of Jean Chretien, the litte guy from Shawinigan.
-
Not Synced
A man disgraced by Dalton Camp is looking like a driver of a getaway car.
-
Not Synced
Now let's see what he got away with
-
Not Synced
February '94 - a $4.5 million federal grand to
-
Not Synced
boost tourism. You'll never guess where!
-
Not Synced
Shawinigan!
-
Not Synced
Forget Florida!
-
Not Synced
Forget California!
-
Not Synced
Forget Mexico!
-
Not Synced
Canadians were going to flop to tourist Mekka of Western Hemisphere, Shawinigan.
-
Not Synced
But to see what Chretien had thought of that
-
Not Synced
adding federal cash to that for local companies
-
Not Synced
to create a theme park showcasing the industrial
-
Not Synced
history of Shawinigan.
-
Not Synced
How did we, as a country, missed out on a vital
-
Not Synced
need for such a place?
-
Not Synced
On this basis, why not give somebody
-
Not Synced
a theme park on a wonderful world
-
Not Synced
of sulphur dioxide?
-
Not Synced
Then you ask why Shawinigan?
-
Not Synced
JEAN CHRETIEN: "I will help them as much as I can"
-
Not Synced
"because it's my job as a Member of Parliament"
-
Not Synced
"to help my constituents."
-
Not Synced
Hey, right, right, okay.
-
Not Synced
December '96 - on a televised town hall meeting
-
Not Synced
Chretien tells the woman question that
-
Not Synced
he hadn't promised to scrap the GST.
-
Not Synced
The woman said he had!
-
Not Synced
CHRETIEN: "The commitment we've made public is we want to get rid of the GST."
-
Not Synced
"Our objective is very clear that the GST will be replaced."
-
Not Synced
"If the GST is not gone, I will have a tough time in the election after that."
-
Not Synced
Are you, are you sure you're gonna get rid of the GST, Jean?
-
Not Synced
CHRETIEN: "It's a specific promise I'm making very clear"
-
Not Synced
"It's going. It's gone."
-
Not Synced
How would he express that he wasn't going to make it clear, I wonder?
-
Not Synced
Now the question is have we got a fork-tongued festival going on here?
-
Not Synced
Or some of us were getting forked?
-
Not Synced
March '99 - a federal grant of $164,000 to a former business associate
-
Not Synced
of Chretien's. What he want to aim is to buy a
-
Not Synced
Shawinigan hotel partly owned by Chretien before
-
Not Synced
he was coming for power.
-
Not Synced
And the same guy got $800,000 to improve the hotel he bought.
-
Not Synced
There had to be a reason!
-
Not Synced
JEAN CHRETIEN: "I will help them as much as I can"
-
Not Synced
"because it's my job as a Member of Parliament"
-
Not Synced
"to help my constituents."
