On February 13th, 2022, in Coutts Alberta, RCMP had been working to restore movement on roads blocked by tractors belonging to those protesting vaccine mandates and restrictions.
On this particular day, the RCMP decided it was necessary to break the law by vandalizing excavators to accomplish their task.
The Supreme Court of Canada has made a decision to strike down a 2011 federal law that made it possible to extend parole ineligibility for those convicted of multiple murders. This decision is binding and must now be applied to all sentences, as in the case of Justin Bourque.
Bourque plead guilty to 3 counts of first-degree murder and 2 counts of attempted murder for targeting RCMP officers in June of 2014 and was subsequently handed a sentence of life in prison.
The abuses by Police Agencies and the Federal Government continue to mount against everyday Canadians. The fact the RCMP shared personal information of convoy supporters to financial institutions without court process should be alarming to every Canadian regardless of feelings towards the convoy.
Can Canada’s National police force still be trusted? This is a question on the minds of many Canadians.
Now we see the RCMP again on the hot seat for using spyware on Canadians. Privacy experts have deep concerns regarding police and government use of this technology and must be tightly controlled.
