The Telegraph Journal's apology to Harper this morning made me decide to dig around a bit into the wafer-gate scandal. After all, nobody actually saw Harper put the communion wafer in his pocket, but what is wrong with this statement from the original story?
A senior New Brunswick Roman Catholic priest is demanding the Prime Minister's Office explain what happened to the sacramental communion wafer Stephen Harper was given at Roméo LeBlanc's funeral mass
I still don't know, but I did find this rather humorous bit of mini-news from the Catholic Blog In the Light of the Law:
Update: Sources say Harper consumed the Host, some claiming right away, others, just after Mass when he asked a Catholic what to do with it.
No word as to the Catholic's response.

"The Irving Family would like to apologise for the misleading statement in the Telegraph Journal's apology to Stephen Harper:
We pride ourselves in maintaining high standards of journalism and ethical reporting, and regret this was not followed in this case."
