The Harper government has long been referred to as Bush's shadow puppets, and now, once again, they are showing just how well they are learning from the neo-con's book of tricks.

First they denied any documents or reports about potential prisoner abuse in Afghanistan did not exist. Then, when they were leaked out, they had them redacted for national security purposes. Now that the redactions have been seen through, it appears as if they were just trying to cover their lying asses. Such good students they have turned out to be.
