Sudbury bribe allegation update

The MPP for Timmins-James Bay says if charges result in an alleged bribe in Sudbury, then a non Ontario prosecutor must oversee the case.  Gilles Bisson says this way the Liberals can’t interfere by trying to influence one of their own Crown Attorneys.  Bisson is pleased that Elections Ontario will interview the Premier and her deputy chief of staff over the affair.  It wants to know what role they had in the claim that Andrew Olivier was offered a job or appointment in return for not seeking the Liberal candidacy.  Olivier ran in the last election but high-ranking Liberals asked him to step aside for the by-election so a star candidate could run instead.
