THE GRIFFIN AFFAIR.

One of my favorite messages with a bit of humor, hopefully all my readers follows this good advice.
Today I will comment on the Griffin affair which in my opinion has gone on way to long, over 9 years if memory serves me correct. Oh to be a lawyer involved in this case & God only knows what the final costs will be. Over the years we must have paid some money out to Lawyers but just try to find how much by looking in the city's budget, it must be there under something so if you know where please contact me as I am quite curious.
The City was ordered by the courts to pay a token bit of money to D/Chief Griffin but instead decided to appeal the decision. Why is a good question I wish I had the answer to but I will kill one of the rumors making the rounds. Due to a statement by City auditors Grant Thornton in the City of S'side 2005 annual report the city is involved in several law suites of which the liability's are unknown at this time. That kills the rumor that the city insurance company insisted they appeal the decision, councillors who were ask why said they were not involved in the decision. If not why not?
If the city had lots of extra money to waste on Lawyers you wonder why they did not join the city of Ch'town in their law suite against the PEI government. Than we would get the 3'rd MLA the Supreme Court said we are entitled to. Just my opinion, I would like to hear yours.
Till next time, take care.
