Personally, I don't feel she was intending to be the "hero". As Rick has said, I think she was just covering her arse? This appears to be an ongoing saga of interference and she was tired of it. While I give her full kudo's for blowing this wide open, let us not forget that she still claims to be a liberal and I'm sure lives under the ideology of the liberal umbrella.

You give her kudos for trying to keep out political interference from a criminal case. No matter what her political persuasion is, she protected the judicial system. She even tried to protect the PM from his own stupidity.

Bush: I give her kudos for blowing it wide open also, but in her sentences I hear her thinking about making sure she says the right things for when the recording is released later.

All very entertaining nonetheless, but I really wish the story had been fully revealed the week after Labour Day,

Clearly the recording was very deliberate and she rehearsed her words carefully before calling MW back. So much so that I'm surprised that at some point in the conversation MW didnt realize he had stepped into a trap.

I believe that JWR has a much bigger end game here; I believe she wants to be PM someday. This is shaping up to be a Martin Liberals vs Chretien Liberals sort of thing.

Like the Democrats in America (now that their "impeach Trump" BS fell flatter than pee on a plate) I hope the Liberals self destruct.

Even if they do they are like cancer. Even when you think you it is beaten it just bides its time and than pops back up somewhere else worse than ever before.

I think her political career with the lieberals is over and she has no future with them, not even as a back bencher. And if she wants to join another party who the heck would take a chance with her given the secretive phone taping fiasco.

I would bet there are a lot more taped conversations around than just hers ! She obviously felt she needed to cover her arse, as I mentioned before.
