The public safety minister and his staff have been under heavy scrutiny over the past month as more details have emerged about the timeline of the prison transfer. The emails show Kelly herself wrote on May 26 to Public Safety Canada’s deputy minister Shawn Tupper and associate deputy minister Tricia Geddes. It will occur next week,” Kelly wrote in an email with “High Profile Offender” in the subject line. The minister has not divulged how he went uninformed, but has announced plans to issue a directive saying the public safety minister is to be told of such transfers directly. Mendicino’s office said Public Safety Canada would also provide a statement Tuesday about the newly released documents.
