After initially refusing to participate, the woman described as the first survivor and a key witness to the events of April 2020 will testify at the inquiry. Members of the Mass Casualty Commission (MCC) have announced Lisa Banfield will be interviewed and will be questioned under oath to fill in some of the missing pieces of the story that ended with the deaths of 22 people and an unborn child. Her legal case was in court today, clearing her so-called jeopardy. And the Chair of the MCC announced they would be calling numerous RCMP officers and Supervisors to account for what they did and did not do in the events on that weekend almost two years ago. And that, according to a lawyer who has been providing his own commentary about the inquiry, moves us much closer to transparency and integrity. And Adam Rodgers, who has participated in Public Inquiries in the past, says former Chief Justice Michael MacDonald deserves credit for clarifying what trauma informed means. That it is not a shield to protect people from testifying.
