The Mass Casualty Commission started Phase 3 of their work, which is to be focused on parsing through potential recommendations from participants, and determining which might form part of the final report. That report, which was expected to be delivered November 1st, is going to be five months late, after the MCC received permission from the Provincial and Federal governments to do so. I discuss the reasons given for this significant delay.  Today, there was a presentation from MCC lawyer Jennifer Cox on the many previous inquiries and commissions which have made recommendations on subjects being covered by the MCC. This was done to avoid duplication, and also as a warning of sorts to avoid making recommendations that do not lead to action. Finally, there were presentations from victim advocacy groups, with their recommendations. This involved lots of victim advocacy lingo and pleas for more resources, but not much connecting of the recommendations to the actual events of the mass casualty. There are no proceedings tomorrow. Wednesday the MCC is back, and will be hearing from gender-based organizations.
