Talk:William J. S. Elliott

Untitled

William J. S. Elliott was born C.1954. See: The Globe and Mail. Toronto, Ont.: Jul 7, 2007. pg. A.4. Birth place unknown. It has been asserted that Bill Elliott is in some way related to former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. [Brian Mulroney's elder sister Olive married a Dick Elliott, a Civil Engineer from Saskatchewan, in 1958.] Rupertlt (talk) 01:57, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Who is the predecessor?

The statement "His appointment came after the resignation of Giuliano Zaccardelli..." contradicts the item in the infobox that denotes Beverley Busson as the one that succeeded Zaccardelli. So..what really happened? --Hooperbloob (talk) 07:41, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
