Short version:
16 year old mom "confesses" (without lawyer or her mother) to smothering her 1 year old. Is currently pregnant with number 2. Dad of number 2 was in room sleeping and heard nothing.

What annoys me:
The final paragraph reads:
According to the Boston Globe, Truong was involved with another incident involving the death of an infant earlier this decade. In 2000, Truong was babysitting her brother when he died in his crib. That baby's death was ruled Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

She would have been 8 years old. Possibly only 7.
Children that young are NOT babysitters. In fact I don't know anywhere in the US where it's legal to leave them alone at that age, let alone in charge of another child!
The article's implication she was responsible is unconscionable.

HAHAHAHA!

Tories BUSTED! indeed.

I think my favourite part is Chipeur trying to cover ass for Day.

In an interview, Mr. Chipeur played down the importance of the offer, saying he never discussed the matter with Mr. Day or other MPs, and was simply getting ready in the event of a minority government.

“I was preparing for what might happen,” Mr. Chipeur said.

Yeah because yk, lawyers draft agreements like that just for shits and giggles.

I also love how people are pretending this is a leak. My ass. Come on Gilles, admit you handed it over. We all totally know you did it! Good move my friend, good move!

(I have to admit, as an aside, the idea of Joe Clark and Gilles Duceppe running the country together, even if with that douche Day, makes me all gooey inside in a happy way! Sort of like the idea of seeing Queen and Placebo at the same concert.)
