the...Steve, regarding #5 and #6 in your first list:<br />the 2015 Ontario 10,000m Championships were ALWAYS listed as May 10th in London, announced alongside other AO Championships as normal. In planning 2015 seasons, there was absolutely no change to this AO Championship, which is worth even more points than the Canadian Championship for provincial carding points. <br /><br />If an appeal for provincial carding was submitted to the provincial government under the guise that a provincial championship had changed dates and could not be attended, that is a lie. If AO staff verified the content of such an appeal, which Sue Wise claimed to have done, that AO staff would also be culpable in this lie; a lie that could only be explained if this particular club was being given special permission to skip an Ontario Championship that they had no direct National Team conflict with. I'm still amazed at how this whole thing played out and how it is very, very likely that multiple incidents of fraud are going relatively unnoticed.

Alas, we're l...Steve, I hear your frustration.<br /><br />Alas, we're long past the age of Woodward and Bernstein etc., when investigative journalists were given the time by their bosses to uphold the media's (traditional) mechanism as a "watchdog" for public-interest-affecting black operations. Of course the media has changed in the digital age, but so has the media consumer (not sure who is the chicken;and who is the egg), and I think you're right that the sound-byte sensibility of both the communicator and receiver today has opened up a greater opportunity for those who can capitalize on this new "looseness". <br /><br />-Andrew <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14474955088130704004noreply@blogger.com
