Rookie Liberal gets cold shoulder for coming clean on expenses 

,----[ Quote ]
| There were some smirks and sniffs as rookie 
| Liberal MP Michelle Simson told caucus 
| colleagues this week that sometimes itâs 
| easier to do the right thing. It was not a 
| message her colleagues enjoyed hearing.
| 
| Ms. Simson is the first MP to take the bold 
| step of publicly revealing her MP expenses. 
| Last year, with little fanfare, she posted 
| the information on her website, fulfilling an 
| election campaign promise to her constituents 
| that she would show them how she spent their 
| money.
