The Party Canadian Society and Politics - Chretien on hot seat today

STEPHANIE RUBEC writes:"Jean Chretien will take centre stage at the AdScam commission today, becoming the first prime minister to publicly testify at a federal inquiry in more than 130 years. Chretien hunkered down in the high-rise offices of his lawyers yesterday preparing for his testimony. He emerged from a morning strategy session, cracking a quick joke about the attention his appearance is garnering."
