Backbench Tory MLA comes clean on Fage accident. It now looks like the Premier's office is involved in a serious cover-up after the latest news of "who knew what when" in the Ernie Fage scandal hit the media today.
The CBC reports that A Tory backbencher says the premier's chief of staff knew about Ernie Fage's car crash immediately after the fact, contradicting claims from the premier's office.
Caucus chair Alfie MacLeod said Wednesday he notified Bob Chisholm the night of the accident after he drove by the scene on Nov. 24.
"I thought it was [Fage's] car, but I wasn't sure," he said.
MacLeod said he called Chisholm to report that he saw an accident and believed it was Fage's black Jetta.
"He said thank you for calling," MacLeod said.
MacLeod said Fage was at the same bar as Chisholm that night, marking the end of the legislature's session.
