Mendicino grapples to explain lack of Bernardo info despite his office, PMO knowing
OTTAWA — Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino says it is"unacceptable" he was kept in the dark about Paul Bernardo's controversial prison transfer.
The Liberal government was already dealing with fallout from the Correctional Service of Canada's decision to move the convicted killer and serial rapist out of a maximum-security prison in Ontario to a medium-security institution in Quebec. Trudeau's office says he was briefed on the transfer the day it happened, while Mendicino says he only found out about it a day later.
