Mere minutes after writing a blog entry about the fact that the Gomery report would be handed to Liberals in Ottawa—to the exclusion of all other parties who wouldn’t get it for at least another 12 hours —- we already find that Prime Minister Paul Martin may have lied through his teeth to YOU and your Canadian compatriots.
It’s clearly unfair that the Liberals get the report a fill 12 hours ahead of all others, giving them time to craft their spin and be right off the mark in shaping public opinion.
ALL CANADIANS PAID FOR THIS REPORT—NOT THE LIBERAL PARTY.
Ironic, that, isn’t it, given the reason for this Gomery inquiry in the first place?
[…] Martin said last week that he was only following Gomery’s wishes in receiving the report first. But Gomery has made it clear that the final decision rests with Martin.
In response to a letter from all three opposition parties, Gomery said all 6,000 copies of his report will belong to the government of Canada as of 6 p.m. Monday.
“The commission did not and does not plan to submit its report to the prime minister,” Gomery wrote in a letter Monday.
“From (6 p.m.) on, the commission no longer owns the report and has no control over how it may be dealt with. Subsequent decisions about the tabling, public release and distribution of the report are the responsibility of the government. . .
“I am suggesting that careful consideration be given to the request for opposition parties to receive the report Monday night.”
