Leclerc was involved with the union representing city engineers until about 1996. Was president. #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/12/2012 3:23:43 PM

St-Jean is asking Leclerc about the details of his various trips south with construction bosses. Who paid? How? When? #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/12/2012 3:32:36 PM

Leclerc, his wife, Gilles Suprenant, and city of Mtl's Yves Themens (their former boss) took a trip south in the spring of this year. #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/12/2012 3:37:21 PM

I'd be very surprised if we don't see Mr. Themens on the stand at some point. Here's a list of other possibles: http://www.montrealgazette.com/news/Corruption+probe+people+might+soon+Charbonneau/7520783/story.html #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/12/2012 3:38:36 PM

I think the closest English translation would be "I was floored." #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/13/2012 4:58:04 PM

Gilles Vezina: "When I found out engineers were accepting bribes, I was floored". Says never accepted $$ + had no idea about kickback schemeby Domenic Fazioli via twitter 11/13/2012 5:02:36 PM -
Commissioners Lachance, Charbonneau now questioning Vezina directly. Neither of them seems satisfied with what they've heard thus far. #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/13/2012 5:03:49 PM

Main portion of Gilles Vézina's testimony is over. Moving on to cross-examination. City of Mtl has no questions (?!) #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/13/2012 5:04:22 PM

It appears that no one wants to cross- examine Vézina. We're breaking until 2 pm. #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/13/2012 5:07:02 PM

Hierarchy chart from Montreal opens a complex debate. Themens isn't anyone's boss, it seems. #ceicby SGirouxCTV via twitter 11/14/2012 7:24:16 PM
-
Charbonneau asks if, when he saw unit prices were unusually high, Themens could contest/intervene. #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/14/2012 7:26:46 PM
-
Charbonneau: "so the higher you got in hierarchy, the more you were just a rubber-stamp?" Themens: my job wasn't to review everything #ceicby SGirouxCTV via twitter 11/14/2012 7:26:47 PM
-
He says he could ask questions, but it was not his responsibility to contest the estimates of engineers. #ceicby Monique Muise via twitter 11/14/2012 7:27:41 PM

He can asks questions, but that's about it. #ceicby SGirouxCTV via twitter 11/14/2012 7:28:34 PM

So with this #rubberstamp administration, city didn't check value of contracts in a long time! #ceicby SGirouxCTV via twitter 11/14/2012 7:30:54 PM
