That last RT from @evansolomoncbc suggests that the #AFN executive may not have decided to attend tomorrow's meeting.by kady o'malley via twitter 1/11/2013 1:46:59 AM

Okay, now I get the reason for the standoff re: Delta vs. Langevin -- it would be so ALL chiefs can take part, not just #AFN delegation.by kady o'malley via twitter 1/11/2013 1:48:28 AM

I don't think there's any chance the PM would take part in a bearpit session with hundreds of chiefs, even if closed to media. #AFNby kady o'malley via twitter 1/11/2013 1:49:47 AM

So, does the #AFN have some sort of impeachment/recall mechanism to replace a national chief? Just wondering.by kady o'malley via twitter 1/11/2013 2:06:17 AM

If I'm parsing the latest statement from PMO correctly, it sounds like they're not budging on the venue, or the non-presence of the GG. #AFNby kady o'malley via twitter 1/11/2013 1:30:16 PM

That would suggest Atleo was unsuccessful in his efforts to garner a concession last night. #AFNby kady o'malley via twitter 1/11/2013 1:31:02 PM
