It's militaristic structure is an anachronism and not suited to the demands of the time. Their treatment of their officers, especially women and natives, is appalling.

Now the detachment has another little wonder. Seems he doesn't like meeting with people who have cell phones. Local event: large RCMP presence even though there is no history of trouble. <br /><br />In my opinion the rcmp is out of control. there hasn't been any leadership there for along time. the anointed some non cop, that didn't turn out so well. then steve anoints a cop and that doesn't turn out so well. just another e.g. of steve's inability to make good decisions. <br /><br />Poulson wondered how 3 officers could get killed in Moncton. Real easy, not enough vests, no carbines and reporting to his political benefactor. there needs to be separation between the RCMP and the political arm of government. A committee of equal numbers of elected M.P.s ought to be doing the appointing and supervision.<br /><br />right now the RCMP looks like Harper's person police force. Not what we need in a democratic country, but then we do have Bill C-51, the new citizenship act, auditing of charities, etc. Welcome to the new police state of Canada, led by Harper and Poulson. <br /><br />How can a government bring law and order to a country which itself is mired in crime, i.e. about 17 of those Cons and who knows what else went on.<br /><br />it truly is a mystery to me why Nigel Wright wasn't charged, but I'd suspect it has something to do with trying to get Duffy convicted. We know what Nigel testified to. Perhaps this was an object lesson to any other Con M.P.s and Senators who "got out of line". <br /><br />ABC and then get rid of Poulson. then clean up the RCMP. Get rid of the racism, sexism, etc.e.a.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-43444568093057145852015-08-24T09:56:37.048-04:002015-08-24T09:56:37.048-04:00r.c.m.p.= R oyal C ONSERVATIVE M ounted P ol...r.c.m.p.= R oyal C ONSERVATIVE M ounted P oliceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-88898094741460388412015-08-24T09:35:40.627-04:002015-08-24T09:35:40.627-04:00What continues to remain a mystery to me is why th...What continues to remain a mystery to me is why the RCMP charged anyone. They clearly are doing Harper's bidding so the charge against Duffy came from the PMO. If the charge came simply to give Harper someone to blame, it was a massive miscalculation. If they had failed to charge Duffy, most people would have forgotten about this whole thing by now. It was either Harper's most blatant political miscalculation yet or there is something that is as yet unclear.

It was the justice department that thew the curve ball.

The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.<br /><br />http://nickfillmore.blogspot.ca/2012/02/is-stephen-harper-displaying-fascist.html<br /><br />http://nickfillmore.blogspot.ca/p/grotesque-monument-proposed-for-cape.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
