Can you see where this “public” “independent” and “impartial” inquiry is going?
Progress on the Father John Allan Loftus postings. Once again I have added to and re-arranged the commentary and linked to two new Loftus-related articles: (1) a new article from the Catholic Register, and (2) a 1990 article from Time … Continue reading
Expect massive legal wrangling and countless more delays
No further progress as yet on the Loftus postings. I have, however, posted a few new media articles (scroll down) and Glaude’s ruling of yesterday (30 August ’06) regarding redaction and disclosure of documents which I had linked you to … Continue reading

The Cornwall Public Inquiry website has added 30 August ’06 to its roster. I am assuming that this is the date Justice Glaude has chosen to hand down his ruling regarding redaction of disclosed documents. 10 am. Now back to … Continue reading
Back to the mandate and the judge
I was just starting to blog yesterday’s events at the Weave Shed – a sequel to the disclosure chaos which kicked off with Wednesday’s SOS session – when I realized I have to get this of my chest first and … Continue reading
More chaos at the hobbled inquiry!
If you thought the issues regarding disclosure of documents and redactions were settled: not! First, I just have to say that this mandate must be exceeding its crafters wildest dreams! Now that I have that off my chest, back to … Continue reading
SOS session at the Weave Shed
A quick blog to let you know that a previously unscheduled session will continue at the Weave Shed at 10 am this morning (Thursday). This is a continuation of something akin to an SOS emergency session which was conducted yesterday … Continue reading
