The reviews are in

The Star-Phoenix editorial board takes Stephen Harper to task for his refusal to tell Canadians why it is that the RCMP has been called in to investigate Helena Guergis:
In a country whose national police force is expected to be non-political, it's suspicious enough to have the prime minister order an investigation.

To then have him make the announcement without telling Canadians why he is stepping outside the traditional bounds of his office to call an investigation is unacceptable. Canadians have a right to know what is behind such a high-profile investigation.

The RCMP isn't Mr. Harper's police force, and it certainly isn't mandated to clean up the prime minister's political messes.

Mr. Harper should come clean, even if it's embarrassing.
