Given the hush-hush way the Conservatives are treating this issue, it's hard to believe Harper's motivation is based purely on outrage at completely false Liberal accusations.The prime minister has so far refused to clarify exactly what he meant when he referred to "financial considerations" offered to Cadman during a recorded conversation with a journalist in 2005.
