Comments on: Toronto Lawyer Wants Way More http://lawiscool.com/2008/06/26/toronto-lawyer-wants-way-more/?nucrss=1 The law school blog and podcast from Canada Mon, 07 May 2012 13:10:25 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Michael http://lawiscool.com/2008/06/26/toronto-lawyer-wants-way-more/comment-page-1/#comment-10336 Michael Thu, 10 Mar 2011 01:11:26 +0000 http://lawiscool.com/?p=482#comment-10336 It is unfortunate that "Cindy", 3rd Year Student, did not attempt to contact either or both Ms. Day or her former legal representation. She and her class mates would have found both individuals quite forthcoming, candid, and willing under the appropriate circumstances to not only discuss the case but what had been discovered in the preparatory examination of the case- a matter of a genre W5 or the 5th Estate would pursue keenly, a theme revisited time and again by investigative journalism, and would undoubtedly have encountered resistance and supressive efforts by certain individuals on the government side of the ledger. Now, years later, it is a moot point. It is unfortunate that “Cindy”, 3rd Year Student, did not attempt to contact either or both Ms. Day or her former legal representation.

My teammates are defending Ms. Way and are looking into other possible ways for Ms. Way to be re-instated to her former job at the CRA. I would love to hear from her personally - but do not think that will happen. Although, there are many different approaches that are favoritable for Ms. Way. Any comments to help my teammates and I are welcome, as we would love to see other insights. Especially since the two jobs in question do not seem to conflict with one another. Please email me if you have suggestions that we could investigate.

It is written by a wannabee lawyer that relies on fabrication instead of facts. The editorial has no educational value.

I am fairly certain that she would receive a T4 slip from both employers. The issues would likely not be unreported income; it would conflict-of-interest.

Sadly, many missed out completely on "the best part"- the very newsworthy and controversial item that apparently more than counsel for CRA wanted to bury. We are sadly left with no true story to digest (so far), and another example of big government prepared to make a citizen's livelihood expendable to save its own skin (and image).
