With over one thousand Canadians of all stripes having contracted AIDS through the blood system - a large number being hemophiliacs - the federal government appoints Justice Horace Krever to oversee an inquiry into how this could have happened, the inquiry's mandate not to direct blame but to make sure such a travesty does not happen again. Regardless, some testifying cannot help but direct blame at especially those at the highest levels of the Canadian Red Cross and the Bureau of Biologics, while those accused by this testimony cannot help but defend their position stating that they were doing the best they could with what was known at the time, but arguably and largely to prevent any future liability. Included is some emotional testimony based on personal tragedy. One person encouraged by his support network but who is reluctant to testify is Peter. During the years of the inquiry, life goes on for the victims and secondaries, for good and bad. Written by Huggo
