Conflict of interest??

NDP Premier Gary Doer's (Ginny Devine) wife received a lucrative p.r. contract worth $500,000 from Manitoba's Workers Compensation Board. The Opposition Tories claim that her company, Viewpoints, was not the lowest bidder.

You may recall her company also did much of the p.r. work for Crocus.

The CTF says that perhaps Ms. Devine's company should reconsider when bidding on government contracts to avoid the perception of a conflict . . .
