While I'm opposed to corporate money in politics, the amounts these executives contributed seems rather paltry.

@OminousOrange @mooniyaw You can thank #JeanCretien for getting #Corporate money out of politics (at least, by direct donations). Surprisingly, #StephenHarper reduced personal contributions even further (a way of owning the #Libs as at the time their party was much better at attricting lots of small doners).
