Toronto Org Ethics Order #145 (commented)

[Note: The authenticity of this document has been disputed by several Toronto Scientologists. Click here to read the alt.religion.scientology post where Gregg Hagglund quotes several Toronto Scientologists on the subject of this document. I'm not sure whether this is genuine or not, myself. As such, take this document with a grain of salt.]

According to ex-Scientologists, the Sea Org is the controlling entity of Scientology. Sea Orgers pervade the entire Scientology corporate structure, while the organization appears on no Scientology org chart.

CLO CAN ETHICS ORDER #145

Continental Liason Office Canada Ethics Order #145
Incidentally, like most other Canadian Scientology front groups, the CLO is run out of the Scientology building at 696 Yonge Street in Toronto.

ALL STAFF
TORONTO DAY & FDN
Scientology Orgs are divided into two: The day (normal office hours, roughly) and Foundation (evenings). Staff positions are separate for each Org, though one person may hold the same position in the other Org if staff is short. They share the same building, though.
LIMITED DISTRIBUTION
This means that the Order is supposed to be distributed to staff only, I think. It's not that limited now, is it?

URGENT - INTERROGATORY

The following interrogatory is to be answered within 4 hours of receipt. This information has been requested by D/IJC on behalf of RTC & OSA US Legal department. This interrogatory is NOT to be discussed with public. Replies are to be handrouted to CONT JUSTICE CHIEF CLO CANADA upon answering.

D/IJC = Deputy International Justice Chief - Deputy of the big cheese around Scientology when it comes to the cult's twisted version of ethics. The Continental Justice Chief CLO Canada is the Canadian version of the position.

Public in this sense probably means non-staff, non-Sea Org Scientologists. Although, I suppose that's moot now... ;-)
