  1. If the Afghan committee calls to order on the Hill, do any Tories hear? No. Govt MPs skip the comm leaving it to a one-sided debate again.
  2. Tories are no shows at the Afghan committee. You need a govt member to get thingsd done.
  3. It took the RCMP 2 weeks to give me a Rumsfeldian answer on inv. war crimes over abuses - If any intl laws were broken, they look into it.
  4. RCMP inv. war crimes? "The RCMP does not confirm or deny that we are/are not investigating or are/are not in the receipt of a complaint."
  5. One more military note ... Want a sense of how big the move out of Afghanistan will be? Canada has 1200 vehicles on the ground right now.
  6. A military team is in Kandahar right now making a list of what gear comes home by Dec 2011, what can be sold, and what can be given away.
  7. Canada's top gen Walt Natynczyk says troops are out of Afghanistan in 18 months but need to sign contracts by next summer to get gear home.
  8. Police have finally pulled all the Greenpeace protestors off the West Block roof ... Security prob? What security problem?
  9. Military Complaints Comm released all of Richard Colvin's 43 censored memos today, by-passing extra black ink applied over last few days.
  10. Govt relied on a 'war room', drawing on core legal and sr comms advisors, to prep witnesses and shape strategy on detainees this past week.
  11. Amnesty and BC Civil Liberties want an inquiry into detainee abuse, and just received docs today they asked for over a year and a half ago.
  12. Harper might not talk to reporters today. If this is true, I can count the ?s put to the PM on this trip to Asia on one hand. Really.
  13. The APEC official statement on climate change is out here in Singapore. The Coles Notes version? 'We're working on it.'
  14. The spat over detainee abuses is building: the Military Police Complaints Commission now taking govt to court over the inquiry's scope.
  15. Did Cdns know of detainee abuse in Kandahar? The public commission might take its own govt to court in order to hear its first witness.
