I very much doubt I'll be liveblogging all -- or even most -- of the myriad panel discussions and roundtables that the Liberal caucus has cooked up to fill the parliament-shaped hole in our lives, but with a guest list like this:

• Linda Keen (former President and CEO of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, by video)
• Peter Tinsley (former Chair of the Military Police Complaints Commission)
• Paul Kennedy (former Chair of the Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP)
• France Houle (Law teacher at University of Montreal)
• Ned Franks (Professor of Political Studies at Queen's University)

... really, I just don't see how I could not show up for this morning's forum on governance, so check back at 10am for full coverage!

UPDATE: Here is the link to the RCMP PCC's report Police Investigating Police that Kennedy mentions.

UPDATE-UPDATE: And Presto! here's the AG's report from March 2009 on the public appointments process that Tinsley referred to repeatedly.
