The Globe had a decent LiveChat with old reliable, Mark Hume, on all matters RailGate over the lunch hour today.*
And there is some good stuff worth having a look at there, both in terms of the questions and the answers.
One call and response that caught my eye was the following:
12:30 | [Comment From PaulG] has anyone talked to the woman at the center of this scandal - Ms. hayes? |
12:31 | Mark Hume: Rosemarie Hayes, the director of the government's messaging services, has not talked to anyone in the media. She did talk at some length to a government lawyer, who has filed two affidavits from her. Those sworn statements, which we heard in court are contradictory, are sealed, so we don't know what she's said. |
Which is all fine and good, as far as it goes.
Not to mention clear.
But it is nothing new.
So, again......
Why doesn't some enterprising editor send a reporter to go and ask Ms. Hayes' ultimate boss, the minister responsible for 'messaging services', who, precisely, ordered the destruction of the Emails in May of 2009?
And if the minister responsible is not immediately available, perhaps one of the 223 fine folks in the Public Affairs Bureau without too much to do (ie. the ones that keep trolling 'round here all day long) could go and find him.
Why?
Because the minister responsible for 'messaging' is their boss too.
And his name is Mr. Ben Stewart.
OK?

Why wasn't I in there mixin' it up myself, you may be asking?.....Darned thing called work....But I am thinking that we, the RailGate Obsessives Club, could set up our own LiveChat.....After all, we have the technology, and we pulled off a similar thing somewhat successfully on Election Night.....Details to follow.
