Provincial Election Campaign: Andrew Blackadar

Investigation Dept: Both investigations were launched in September, 2011, when three former provincial government employees stepped forward in the middle of the provincial election campaign with explosive allegations, according to CBC. The CBSA investigation ended months ago, on Nov. 2, but it only recently released a statement saying it was over and the Canadian Border Services Agency has closed its investigation into P.E.I.'s controversial provincial nominee program, but an RCMP investigation into allegations of fraud and bribery is continuing. The RCMP investigation should be completed by the end of this month, says Sgt. Andrew Blackadar. Two of them worked directly with Innovation PEI, which administered the program. They claimed senior bureaucrats in the Liberal government exerted pressure on them to approve immigrant applications that should have never have been accepted. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
