Rob was the person Danielle kept saying she would defer to during her leaked conversation with Pastor Art Pawlowski in which he kept pressing for her to intervene with his court case.

I think their more immediate goal is to appease the Pathways grifters and mollify the batshit wing of the UCP.

If you don't kill the survivors, someone will recognize one of them on tv as their uncle or some guy they regularly buy shrimp from who coaches football.

They didn't even allow Yves Engler into the hall the debate was held in, even though he's a member of the NDP. Tells you all you need to know about that party. Still run by a small group of elites.

This is just temporary until permanent housing can be arranged.
