En coupant court illégalement aux travaux de la Commission et, par la suite, en restreignant son mandat, le ministre tente-t-il de protéger, non seulement l'establishment militaire, mais aussi certains amis libéraux proches du pouvoir, comme par exemple M. Bob Fowler, ex-sous-ministre de la Défense et actuel ambassadeur canadien à l'ONU?
