Halifax Herald: Cadman affair: Insurance bribe allegations spark feverish speculation

[tuvor]

OTTAWA — Dan Wallace, one of a handful of people who might know who offered what to Chuck Cadman, is not available for interviews.

Mr. Wallace, a slim, sandy-haired, middle-aged man with a moustache and glasses, was Mr. Cadman’s executive assistant on May 17, 2005, when the terminally ill MP received two Conservative visitors in his Parliament Hill office.

That evening, Mr. Cadman told his wife that the two men had offered him a million-dollar life insurance policy if he were to vote to bring down the Paul Martin government. He told her that he had thrown the visitors out and that he was ashamed to be a member of the party.

Mr. Wallace, who now works for Conservative MP Kevin Sorenson, attended a committee hearing on Parliament Hill on Tuesday.

After the meeting, I approached him in the hallway outside the committee room where he and another man were waiting for an elevator.
