BY STEVEN CHASE

Opponents of Canada’s $15-billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia are taking Ottawa to court in an attempt to block shipments of the combat vehicles, a move that could force the governing Liberals to explain how they justify the sale to a human-rights pariah under weapon-export restrictions.

Daniel Turp, a professor of international and constitutional law at the University of Montreal, is leading the effort, supported by students and a Montreal law firm with a record of class-action work and anti-tobacco litigation.

He will announce the legal challenge on Saturday and intends to file it with the Federal Court within three weeks.

 In 2006, Nigel

Wright, with Gerstein, was on the board of the

Conservative fund; in the 2006 election Wright and other members of

PMO were complicit in the fraudulent in-and-out

scheme. Given that since they have all been complicit- either in

commission or omission, there is a code of silence. Even Duffy  as a

long time insider might not be willing to

incriminate himself by revealing a sequence of nefarious acts since 2006.
