The kind that makes the word sound contaminated. The person who ran for the Fordists in my riding last summer and lost to the incumbent got another gig:

Noting this also from Mike Crawley's report for CBC News:

"Throughout the EQAO's 20-year history, the chair position has always been a part-time post paying a per diem amounting to a few thousand dollars a year. In appointing Montgomery, the Ford government changed the chair's job into a full-time post with a $140,000 annual salary, plus vacation, pension and benefits."

Not even trying to hide it.

Hide it! They'll likely point to it as a benefit for future supporters of Ford.

Ummm... "Blatant", perhaps?

(This bunch sounds like they've been taking lessons from the US.)
