Vice-Chairman: Fred Tufnell

Fred Tufnell: Cabinet orders-in-council show the government recently bumped Fred Tufnell from his position as vice-chairman of the Ontario regional division of the Parole Board of Canada, according to Huffington Post. The cabinet order reveals that last November, then-public safety minister Vic Toews asked Tufnell to explain why he should not lose the posting and OTTAWA - The Harper government has mysteriously demoted a parole board member it once named to a senior position. The Conservatives named Tufnell, a former police officer, to the board in 2009 and elevated him to the vice-chairman's job two years later. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
