After 25 months the Ipperwash Inquiry on the shooting of native activist Dudley George is closed. The biggest target of the inquiry was former Premier Mike Harris. A lawyer for the Aboriginal Legal Services of Toronto said Harris lied 17 times in the provincial legislature about meeting with people to discuss Ipperwash and influencing the OPP.
