Scott Brison's regrets that he sent his buddy an e-mail highly indicating that he had inside knowledge on the income trust debacle last fall.........fell as flat as a stomped on blackberry.
C'mon?
Dan Nowlan, university buddy and former political kindred before Brison crossed the floor, was the recipient of an unsolicited e-mail which clearly stated good things were about to happen in the field of trading. Nowlan, a highly respected investment banker with a brokerage firm, could easily have benefitted from inside information. ..........but of course he's out of town right now laying low until this little flurry of heavy breathing from the media passes by. Not available for comment.
Brison is left to dangle from the scratchy blackberry patch. Now why would he do such a bonehead thing as send such a brazenly obvious e-mail? According to reports, Brison has an addiction to his palm pilot. Can't seem to keep his hands of it.
Also, reading between the lines, as we most often have to do when reading the news on the Liberals antics and misantics.............it sounds like Brison, who had lost Nowlan as a buddy during the quick walk from Blue to Red, may have been trying to mend fences? Could it have been a, "will he respect me in the morning again if I give him some helpful information" kind of an attempt? Possibly.
Whatever the reason, it was rash, stupid and against the law. And he regrets it................oh that's good.
Time to take Scott's Blackberry away, and make him write on the opposition party chalkboard 50 times:
"I will not use my palm pilot for passing on budgetary secrets as a way to make ammends with a friend that I let down in the past."
Loose lips sink ships...........fingers and thumbs lose chums.
C'mon?
