Then the trainer could take them to court if it got that far. But usually the trainers will cooperate and give the board their bank records for every month during the suspension."
Then you said, "I don't believe those words to be true".
If the words from my quote are not true, it can mean only one of two things. It would mean either I am lying or the guy from the CHRB is lying. If you don't think that either I or the guy from the CHRB is lying, then I don't know why you would say that you don't believe those words to be true. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense. If the words are not true, then that would mean that either I or the guy from the CHRB is lying.

Valid point, and I do see your point, but again there is a disconnect here and somewhat of an inaccuracy. However, now I see and understand how you read that and inferred that I meant that. Be that as it may, it's interesting that when you quoted me, you only quoted part of my sentence. When you quoted me you took part of a sentence that I did in fact say, but you only took part of it and took that part of it out of context. What I actually said -- the complete sentence -- was as follows:
"I apologize as those are not my words and I do not believe them to be true."
So, let me clarify -- my use of the word "true" as part of that complete sentence was not to infer a lie. It was part of the larger context of me saying (actually apologizing) that those were not my words and I did not believe them to be true as I did not speak them. It's about them not being my words, not about your claim. It's a manner of speaking. That's all.
I also made my point to Cannon Shell and I think he clearly understood me. However, that's neither here nor there.
