No Ottawa computers implicated in gas-plant deletions after all, investigator says

[guest]

Shawn Truax was part of the government investigation into improper computer access that may have been used to conceal information about whether senior Liberals working for then-premier Dalton McGuinty knew that cancelling two unpopular gas-powered generating plants before the 2011 election could cost Ontarians as much as $1 billion, instead of the $40 million McGuinty and others estimated at the time.
