Abstract
This paper discusses the Gomery Inquiry, an investigation into illicit misuse of public funds which had been allocated by the Liberal Government, under Prime Minister Jeanne Chretien, to promote national unity and federal visibility in Quebec. The paper further explains that the objective of this program, initially referred to as the Sponsorship Program, was to combat Quebec separatism by raising the federal profile in the province in the wake of the narrow federalist victory in the 1995 sovereignty referendum. The paper also discusses why the Sponsorship Program eventually became known as the Sponsorship Scandal.

Abstract
This paper explores the reactions to the Liberal Party corruption of the Chretien administration and its implications in terms of sentiment within a Western advanced democracy. It explains how the underlying issue is one of how such illicit spending should be possible, in comparison with similar Commonwealth democracies having checks and balances to prevent it.

From the Paper
"This paper examines the Gomery Inquiry for its significance to Canadian democracy in the early 20th century. Of particular interest is the Inquiry's impact upon public morale, in terms of both wide scale cynicism pertaining to Canadian government and politics, in our day, and also, the impact of the Inquiry' foremost findings.

Abstract
A comprehensive research essay on Canada's political sponsorship scandal and the resulting Gomery Commission, focusing mainly on the noticeable difference in eastern Canada versus western Canada media coverage of the scandal. The paper points out the correlation between the general political views of east and west Canada and the content of news stories on the sponsorship scandal.
From the Paper
"Up to this point it would be fair to say that in Western Canada, the coverage of the government sponsorship scandal and the Gomery Commission seems to reflect how very important the issue is to the majority of people in this part of the country. Most Westerners were outraged to find out that millions of dollars of taxpayers' money had been flowing to Liberal-friendly advertising firms under the false front of fighting Quebec separatism, designed to pay for raising the Liberal Party's electoral stock, so to speak. Given the fact that the Liberal Government has long been much more openly criticized in Western Canada than East, most of us were likely eager to know the facts when it was found that Prime Minister Paul Martin and the Liberals had made a mistake, especially one as large as the sponsorship scandal that has come to be known in the news as "AdScam". Media outlets here in the West realize that eagerness, and have subsequently provided the public with a massive number of stories and updates regarding AdScam and the Gomery Commission."
