It seems every time this administration is called to account, the concept of Trump Derangement Syndrome is invoked. What seems to be overlooked is the mirror Trump Adoration Syndrome by many of his supporters. While the average supporter might be excused for being caught up in the frenzy, like...

Nope. Outside of court, the only people I felt compelled to explain my grounds were the person being detained, the parent of a young person being detained, or another member who was required to continue the arrest (i.e. handing an arrested person over to a breath tech). I certainly wouldn't...

You remind me of me when I was a kid going through the Eaton's Christmas catalogue that just dropped through the mail slot.

"We're going to take him and check—if he's good we'll bring him back," agent said. Sounds like no articulable cause that I am aware of. Sounds more like a fishing trip and 'working while not-looking-American' is the catch of the day.

In a legal sense, the question has to be asked and answered the opposite way: how do we know antifa 'is' organized? If you are going to make an organization - and I'm not convinced it is 'an' organization - and membership in it a criminal offence, the State best have evidence that can survive...

Re-directing feed stocks to human consumption?

Most of us 'of a certain age' did as well. But that world, the world of small village police departments and their members strolling down the street, is largely gone, even in the UK. Interestingly, one of the places where it still exists to some degree is in the US where there are roughly...

To be fair, most celebrities, and many women, including The Queen, do not want to be photographed eating. It's considered undignified. Many advertisers don't show the actual act.

Well, he did qualify that by including 'someone from another state'. People from Utah are special; although I'm not sure how many generations back you'd have to go to qualify. I'm not sure showing that - especially the most graphic one - is appropriate for 5/6 graders. When/if your online...

No, but the Constitution can.

Setting aside that the concept of 'citizen' was different back then (i.e. women as chattel), the world, and law enforcement, is a tad more complex now. Personal vehicle assignment is common in several US jurisdictions. Where it doesn't exist, is a cop living on your street still not part of...

In a world that made a bit of sense, they could establish an advisory pool covering all areas of the country, either by treaty or ethnic 'tribe (there are a lot fewer 'ethnic groups than 'nations') plus Inuit (I'm purposely ignoring Metis) which could be drawn on depending on who is impacted by...

Not in Ontario. That's a topic pretty much every time public safety or municipal services are contracted out. I suspect that, if Esquimalt had kept their own police service, they would challenged with budget and staffing and would be looking at ways to cut back on minor calls. If they feel...

Local law enforcement would have to be somehow empowered under the DND traffic regulations and anything else specific to federal/DND property. Then there is the matter of who pays for it and how the province or local municipality collects, and we've been around that on here before.

Perhaps not, but we wrote a lot of it into the Constitution and adopted the UN Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples into law, so here we are.

You mean in any other country that didn't have to deal with FN land claim negotiations.

Or bored to tears on a small base, just like the MPs likely currently are. For any 'base detachment', you need the range; criminal investigators for benchmark incidents (however defined), patrol members to do traffic, domestics, drunks, etc. plus the local command structure, specialty teams...

True, unless they are needed for whatever remaining role exists for the MPs. I was more thinking that the RCMP is being challenged to staff the detachments it currently has, let alone opening new ones along with the support structure needed. I don't know about the StatsCan data, traffic...
