For 3 years he endued the most vile character asassination in Canadian history.

Good for you, Duff!

He looks guilty.

As a Canadian, spending millions to uncover a sinister $90,000 plot and preserve our righteous indignation seemed quite reasonable. It just really sucks when it backfires...

Mike Duffy is going to make millions off this, and rightly so.

The Wikipedia article on the scandal (for those interested) fails to acknowledge the set-up, at least for now.

Duff was a beloved figure on Canadian television.

As CTV's Ottawa chief for decades, everyone in Canada knew Mike lived in Ottawa.

What followed was a complete perversion of Senate Rules with the objective of abolishing the Senate, using Mike Duffy as the effigy.
