babble is rabble.ca's discussion board but it's much more than that: it's an online community for folks who just won't shut up. It's a place to tell each other — and the world — what's up with our work and campaigns.
You are doing one hell of a job Brad Wall!

Mistakenly my ass!
This is right out of the right-wing dirty tricks playbook.
What kind of shit headline is this?
Sealed record mistakenly released
It is unclear who is responsible for Saskatchewan court documents that should have been sealed being released to media pundit Ezra Levant.
The Court of Queen's Bench in Regina released the records to Levant and Rebel Media last month.
The documents detailed the 1994 assault conviction of Brent Dancey - who now serves as a chief of staff in Alberta's NDP government - and were published on Rebel Media's website. Dancey, 18 and living in Regina at the time, was sentenced to nine months in jail.
However, Dancey was pardoned in 2005 and according to the court's guidelines, the pardon meant the records should have been kept out of the public eye.
A pardon - formally called a record suspension - allows people convicted of a criminal offence, who have completed their sentence and demonstrated they are law-abiding citizens for a number of years, to have their criminal records kept separate and apart from other criminal records.

The apparent leak of a sealed court document for crassly partisan purposes is disgusting.
However it would probably also facilitate discussion if this thread had a slightly less crassly partisan title, or at least a title more appropriately focused on the topic. Did Brad Wall personally leak the document?
The buck stops here.
No, of course not. It was the Saskatchewan courts. And who names judges to Saskatchewan courts? Stephen Harper.
I demand that this thread title be modified to replace "Brad Wall" with "Stephen Harper".
The buck stops there.
Wrong, I blame the judge's parents. They raised their kids so poorly, with no morals or ethics.
What type of parent let their kid become a lawyer anyways?
Who is the Premier?
The provinces administer justice in their jurisdictions. This includes organizing and maintaining the civil and criminal provincial courts and civil procedure in those courts.

Everybody out of step except Brad?
