Affaire Bondil: Cardinal weighs in
François Cardinal is making no secret of whose side he prefers in the affaire Bondil.
Update: There’s a letter from the museum’s curators saying they prefer Desmarais.
Incidentally, the person in question was called Mary Dailey and she married a Desmarais: why are the French-language media calling her Mary-Dailey Desmarais? Isn’t the hyphen meant to go between her two surnames?

The Little I can get from a NYT article before I hit the paywall says :
Mary Dailey Pattee, a daughter of Dailey Jones Pattee and Gordon B. Pattee of New York, was married on Saturday evening to Paul Guy Desmarais III, a son of Hélène Blouin Desmarais and Mr. Desmarais Jr. of Montreal. The Rev. Andrew C. Mead performed the ceremony at St. Thomas Episcopal Church Fifth Avenue in New York.

Ah OK. So it’s not her maiden name, but her mother’s. Thanks, Azrhey.
