Even an attribution to “a Justice Ministry source insisting on anonymity” would give this dangling bit of naked assertion a figleaf and some much-needed support.

Evidence? References? Next thing you know, you’ll be asking from some sort of attribution. Or, god forbid, a source.
Didn’t you get the memo, BCL? Still a slave to the MSM, Feldted?

Don’t you understand that the internet is a self-correcting information system. You don’t need no stinkin’ sources – you simply fling something out there, like a big chunk of red meat, and the rest of the internet will spring to life to verify or debunk it.

It’s like magic, they tell me.

Can no one cite a reference for this ‘news’?? There is nothing on the Justice site and a Google news search comes up empty. Until I see a citation or reference to a cource, I remain a sceptic.

RTFM, Mr. Feldsted. The Levant item refers to an MP’s motion for a parliamentary committee. Dalwhinnie’s story reports a clearly new initiative at the behest of the Prime Minister for a departmental committee to be struck by the Justice Minister.

You are a tad behind times my friend. This story broke at the end of May 2008. http://ezralevant.com/2008/05/government-to-launch-inquiry-i.html

Will the Coa;ition support the change? Not likely. Harper needs a majority!

Rabbit, yes PM Harper did.

The economy is the number one issue for the govenment.

That does not meen the PM would not act. Notice ezra’s post about this passing by the end of the year.

Nice work on the story break!

It is excellent news Rabbit, but I believe that was our PM “playing the game”…he is a politician after all.
