Okay.
In paragraph 5.56 of the Auditor General's report, she says they “found isolated instances where clients received more than one opinion on the same issue from different Justice Canada lawyers”, and then it goes on to say that “departmental officials had expected and wanted a single national opinion from Justice Canada. We were told of one instance where the differing positions were played out in front of the client who then had to act as conciliator”, in deciding, well, do I go this way or that way? I've got two legal opinions: one says black and one says white.
Surely he asked the lawyers for a legal position, not a bunch of legal positions, so he could choose where to go.
