Another one bites the dust

Former Quebec Liberal Party minister Tony Tomassi has been charged with fraud and abuse of confidence in a trial that is set for June 2nd. Tomassi, who had been removed from the Liberal caucus in 2010 because of his use of a suspicious credit card, is once again under the spotlight. The accusations he now faces are related to an event in which he would have lobbied Line Beauchamp, who was the environment minister at that time, to grant a decontamination permit to Carboneutre. Carboneutre was run by Domenic Arcuri, who is linked to the Rizzuto clan.
