Duffy says he wanted to draw attention to equalization
HALIFAX -- A combative Mike Duffy says he used racy references to two Atlantic premiers "getting in bed" together to draw attention to the issue of equalization.
The newly minted Tory senator says he wanted to make it clear that P.E.I. Premier Robert Ghiz should not be allying himself with Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams over the contentious issue.
Duffy got into trouble earlier in the week when he suggested Ghiz may get the "shaft" by getting in bed with Williams, calling the sight of two politicians in bed is "a grotesque scene."

Duffy raised the comments to applause and laughter in his keynote speech, but then took a swipe at reporters who later questioned him about them, saying it was time to move on.
