Oliphant commission docs online

Following up yesterday's post, here's where you can find key documents of the Oliphant commission's report on Canada's sleazy cheesy former Prime Minister.

Mr. Justice Oliphant's statement -- Summary of his findings
The commission's final report -- The whole nausea-inducing thing - good reading for insomniacs
The commission's website -- Everybody's got a website these days!

Transcript of the hearings -- This cost you millions of dollars. If you didn't see it in TV, the least you can do is read it! Don't miss the part where the Right Honourable Mr. Mullarkey says he never did anything wrong in his life. Many other "Honourables" also exposed as venal or merely stupid. Shoals of sharks [lawyers, surely. ed.] make well-paid appearances.

"Mulroney pressured to pay back $2-million defamation settlement" -- From today's Globe and Mail. Note that the Glob still hasn't enabled its comments section for this story.

Will the sleaziest, smarmiest, scummiest prime minister since Sir John Eh give back the money? Walt's assessment of the chances of that happening: slim and none.
