Who Done It?


Vaughn Palmer, as he often does, has performed another wonderful public service.

In today's column, he goes over the ICBC "chop shop" story in full - ICBC employees fixing and reselling smashed cars at cut-rate prices to friends and insiders, etc.; vice-presidents covering everybody's tracks, etc.

But what makes this update so important is that he reminds us that we know nothing substantive.

Who did what? What are their names? Do they still work for the Corp? Were they fired? Paid Off?

Isn't it wonderful how governments pass on their public responsibilities by taking public institutions and making them arms length corporations that are answerable to no one?

This of course could apply to many "explanations" coming from officials and such these days.
