QC - Some people should be ashamed premier says of horseracing scandal
The Gazette, Thursday, December 14, 2006
Premier Jean Charest commented yesterday on the finding of Quebec’s auditor-general that the public corporation formed to run the horse-racing industry may have misappropriated $15 million before it was privatized this year.
“It’s a scandal,” Charest said. “Some people should just clearly be ashamed.”
He added that these kinds of abuses and other management issues in Quebec’s public-sector entreprises that occurred while the Parti Quebecois was in power led his government to propose tougher rules of corporate governance.
