Ed, this is a great piece by you to, which in my opinion, lays out the clever making of a cover up, when directing the person who has responsiblity to protect the youth in their care, to investigate themselves, while knowing the Act itself, that she operates under, has many clauses to prevent any meaningful investigation by her, for years. What a sham and farce. Seems only a Public Inquiry would expose this apparent cover up, where the RNC and the Advocate Dept did nothing to protect those youth, for 15 years or so. Seems the Hughes Inquiry did nothing to prevent future scandals like Mount Cashel.

Over the past 20 years, we have seen the systematic dismantling of the essential elements of liberal democratic government in NL by and with the enthusiastic support of a great many people. It's fascinating to watch and at the same time chilling as it slowly creeps up and up and up. Slow. Systematic. Relentless.

And I should note as well, we will now see Secret Nation turned into a series with Greg Malone doing his part again to popularise paranoid delusions.

Furey has put the CYA in a position where she can only credibly demonstrate independence by ending up cleaved abroad on the stone floor of a church.
