Harris has no choice but to call a public inquiry on fourth anniversary
of Dudley George's death, says Hampton


Toronto - After four years of trying to stall the court process and
denials few believe, Harris has no choice but to call a public inquiry
into the death of Dudley George at Ipperwash Park on September 6, 1995,
said Howard Hampton, Leader of the Ontario NDP today.
"It's been four years now since the death of Dudley George and the
Harris government hasn't been able to wriggle their way out of this,"
said Hampton. "The issue won't go away, they have to agree to a public
inquiry and accept that they're accountable for their actions like
everyone else and tell the truth about what happened at Ipperwash Park."
The family of Dudley George alleges that the Harris government ordered
the OPP to assault the native protesters at Ipperwash Park instead of
negotiating a peaceful settlement and are partly responsible for the
death of Dudley George, who was shot during the assault.
In July of this year, the court rejected the Government of Ontario's
request to be excluded from the George family lawsuit on a technicality.
Premier Mike Harris, then-Solicitor General Bob Runciman and
then-Attorney General Charles Harnick will have to appear before the
court this Fall.
