	Solicitor General
		Generally speaking, a provincial solicitor general is responsible for matters relating to POLICING in the province, corrections, motor vehicles and liquor licensing.
		As of July 1984 the federal solicitor general was made responsible for the CANADIAN SECURITY INTELLIGENCE SERVICE, now established separate and apart from the RCMP; however, one of the controversies concerning the enactment of the new security legislation relates to considerable independence of the service from the minister responsible.
		Federally, there is a close working relationship between the offices of the attorney general and the solicitor general as their functions somewhat overlap.

	sciforums.com - An Open Letter From "Mike" Vreeland
		FTW Canadian correspondent Greta Knutsen was present in the courtroom and stated that the judge was stern with Vreeland and indicated that he did not have much faith that Vreeland would successfully complete the terms of bail.
		Canadian courts have continually refused to allow Vreeland or his attorneys to present mounting evidence validating his assertions -- in many cases corroborated by official records -- that he was a Naval lieutenant conducting secret intelligence operations for the US government in Russia just before his Canadian arrest on Michigan fraud charges in December 2000.
		Something that Canadian authorities have never disputed is that Vreeland wrote his ominous and hastily scribbled warning a full month before the attacks, and that the warning was sealed away by his keepers, beyond his reach, until Sept. 14, three days after the attacks.
