What was behind the Nova Scotia Justice Department sending a letter to Elizabeth Smith-McCrossin over a letter she posted about the death of Allison Holthoff? If they were trying to silence the Cumberland North representative, they weren’t likely to succeed. The Independent MLA had the consent of Gunter before going public with the story of his wife’s death in an Emergency Room. And she had three separate legal opinions telling her she wasn’t violating the woman or her family’s privacy. Smith-McCrossin explains how she got involved in the story and what she’s hoping will come of that letter to the Health Minister, and another to Premier Tim Houston.
