That Doctrine means the government can consult but not dictate what the opinion aught to be. How many times did JWR have to say No?
It's a subjective standard. It seems you'd have been find with any methods JT took to coerce.
did JWR formally say no; if so, why so? Cause that's a fundamental gap mentioned many times - that JWR didn't formally state her position/rationale and more pointedly refused to provide info to the point of even blocking the transfer of related financial analysis from her Ministry to the Clerk/Cabinet/PM.
as for what, as you say, JWR stated: Just a few posts back I replayed the Common's Justice Committee transcript where she stated she was NOT DIRECTED (you say dictated)... that was in her formal testimony as a part of Q&A.
speaking of subjectivity, yours: it seems you're quite fine with any interpretation that sides with a subjective determination that undue pressure was applied. Perhaps you could describe what was involved to rise from your described levels of consultation and dictate - yes?
