While Canadians are smugly convinced that corruption is not a Canadian issue the truth is quite different.Last week I posted a series of references to Canada’s facilitation of corruption overseas.My posting today hangs a lantern on corruption on our home front.Here we learn about its convergence among government industry and organized crime.Am I the only cynic? That was my reaction when I learned that SNC-Lavalin, one of Canada’s preeminent companies who has been globally implicated in corrupt activities and is now under police investigation has only this week decided to launch an ethics and compliance program!!!

I am happy to see corruption exposed anywhere in the world, the actions of corrupt people in public positions of trust is a disgrace and they should all be ashamed.
I am from Romania – you have a good point of view about corruption but I see it in my country and I am disappointed.
Hope?
