Former BC Liberal executive launches online crowdfunding campaign for legal fees
A former BC Liberal Party executive has turned to crowdfunding to pay for her legal bills.
Laura Miller resigned as the Liberals’ executive director last month after being criminally charged in connection to Ontario’s gas plants scandal.
She is one of two former aides to former Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty who are charged for alleged roles in the deletion of emails.
At the time of her exit, she vowed to clear her name and hired high-profile civil rights lawyer Clayton Ruby.
But that doesn’t come cheap.
A Fundrazr page has been set up, and so far has raised more than $18,000.
The page shows contributions came from BC Liberal Party president Sharon White, who donated $2,500, and Liberal MLA John Yap and former Liberal solicitor general John Les, who gave $500 each.
Another apparent contributor is no stranger to the type of attention Miller is getting.
BC Liberal organizer Mark Robertson has donated $1,000.
He’s currently facing Elections Act charges in connection to the BC Liberals’ “quick wins” ethnic outreach scandal.
Miller’s best defence might be to strike a deal with the prosecutors to testify against the real criminals McGuinty and Wynn . . . who the OPP seem to ignore.
Ontario voters, some of the dumbest in Canada, elected these thieves three times with the help of feckless Unions and the lame-stream Media.
Ontar-i-owe is on the verge of “Failed State” status, but I just bet Justin buddy will bail them out!
Legislation law is that a premier in hot water can have their legal fees paid for by the taxpayers.
Vanderzalm refused to let the taxpayers pay his legal bill and paid for the legal fees out of his own personal bank account.
On the other hand Glen Clark let his legal bills to be paid by the taxpayer. Typical NDP policy of finding dumb taxpayers to pick up the tab.
What . . . you don’t know who he was? Deputy Education Minister in the Ontario Govt . . . worked for Wynn, and sat with Wynn and Justin at the TO Parade a couple of years back.
While we were being bombarded with the “Duffy” non-issue . . . he was sentenced to 3 years for making and distributing kiddie porn. And you didn’t know . . . than you Canadian media !
What? Who contributes to all these funding pages? Taxpayers! If she was a stand up gal she would use here own money to defend her guilty a$$.
her legal expenses as if she can’t afford it herself.
She is just another LIBERAL who has been accused of a crime, and I am not going to cry for her.
