Typical Liberal, know nothing, "don't understand ", just happened to be Solicitor General at the time. <BR/><BR/>Liberal MP Wayne Easter was named solicitor general in the months before the Mulroney-Airbus part of the probe was shut down. <BR/><BR/>"I do find it surprising that the RCMP wouldn't have followed up further on investigations," he said Tuesday in an interview. <BR/><BR/>Then again, the national police force was "in a bit of a bind" as it tried to follow leads while fending off accusations that the entire exercise was politically motivated, Easter said. <BR/><BR/>"What do you think would have happened if the RCMP would have went and interviewed Schreiber within two or three years of the $2.1 million payment to Mulroney?" he said. <BR/><BR/>"Don't you think that within 20 minutes of that interview that Schreiber would have been saying: 'Hmm, the RCMP was here and they're asking me about Mulroney again. What in the world?' And then the opposition would be saying that Chretien was trying to reopen the investigation." <BR/><BR/>When it was pointed out that the RCMP probe was supposed to be continuing at that time, Easter said: "Maybe they were investigating on the periphery to see if they could come up with enough information to then go to the key source (Schreiber)." <BR/><BR/>And wasn't it Irwin Cotler, another Lib, that signed the extradition order several years ago? Now the Libs say it is the Conservatives trying to get him out of the country.
