The Fifth Estate strong _suggested_ that it was Mulroney himself, as he

more than careful, though, not to make an outright allegation.
They've always wondered in Montreal how a man making $100,000 a year, and
who spent his previous fortune on two leadership campaigns, could afford
a $2 million house in Montreal. So there's my guess.
