The briefing made it very clear, they did not want us enforcing 6(1) GPTR. Only when we raised the potential problems did they go back to the A/Jag and ask for clarification.

Dapaterson! Excellent find, I wonder if this approach could be used in all provinces? Do you happen to have a reference? Perhaps those in the lower ranks who are, on a frequent basis, dealing with this issue could perhaps start to propose solutions! The simple fact is, as of right now, the...

What province do you work in? Because it's nation wide, given to all MPs We can't operate off jurisdiction (not new) . What was new was that we are not legally required to intervene, but if we do, we are not protected whatsoever, even if we acted in good faith and in the best interest of the...

You and I both know that's not true! The new directive that came down in May made it pretty clear we can not enforce provincial legislation, because we were not specifically named in that legislation! If you are operating outside this directive, you run the risk of being found to have been...

I highly, highly encourage you to report what you know to the Military Police Unit at your base.  Officers threatening subordinates is unacceptable regardless of the events that have unfolded as of late. It could also be argued the Sub Lt would released their names placed them, knowingly or...

http://dgpaapp.forces.gc.ca/en/canada-defence-policy/docs/canada-defence-policy-report.pdf I think this answers that question.  Almost 2 Billion investment starting next fiscal year, approximately 1 billion the next fiscal year. It does slow down in 2019/20 but ramps back up in 2020/21 with...

Tried Ctrl F5 and no luck! Anyway someone can post a picture of the new rates!?

Where are you seeing 2017 Rates? I clicked on the 2013 pay rates and they are still looking like the 2013 rates!

It's not an erosion of due process, as the accused would still be compelled to court to answer to the charge.  No one is suggesting straight to prison without an opportunity to defend themselves, simply allowing police officers a greater chance of catching impaired drivers, which I think...

Very interesting changes announced by the federal government in conjunction with the introduction of cannibas legislation! http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-impaired-driving-changes-1.4069889 Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould introduced major changes to the country's impaired driving...

The legislation does state a minimum age of 18, and allowing for the provinces to have higher thresholds.

Not completely true.  The federal government set a minimum age of 18, so there is age in the legislation, just the room for each province to set a higher limit as they see fit. I see this as allowing provinces to set the age as it does for alcohol, which I suspect will allow them to sell in...

This isn't terribly surprising, given that almost everyone was saying no new funding will be announced prior to the governments release of the Defence Review, which is confirmed in the budget: "The Government will soon release a new defence policy for Canada, following substantive public...

As far as I have seen, there are no provisions for shift workers.  The MPs at Windsor park in the patrol section park 5 days on the base per month where a parking pass is required, and are required to pay 69$ a month.  Fair market eh? Choices? 

The way to fix the parking system is to get rid of it entirely.  It's absurd that members have to pay to park on government property to go to work. Next they are gonna demand that you pay for the gas you use while driving a CFR  :salute:

Fixed parking? Really?  The only base in the country to get it's members to pay to come to work! Hiding behind some illusion that they have to be based on fair market value! Last I checked, and I am willing to be corrected, Willow/Windsor Park is now 69$ a month, tax deductible.  Can someone...

Hot off the press today from the Supreme Court! Very good news! http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/police-opinion-deemed-expert-evidence-in-drug-impairment-trials-scc-rules-1.3297748 A police officer’s opinion about a driver’s level of impairment can be admitted as expert testimony at...

Saw this today, and immediately I wondered if it meant the beginning of recognition for MP's in Ontario. Thoughts? ----------------------- http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/police-services-act-reform-strategy-for-safer-ontario-1.3969134 Policing in Ontario faces its biggest reform in a...

I mean, I was more speaking to a ratification vote for the public service by end January, before anything you mentioned can even begin.

If we look here : http://psacunion.ca/sites/psac/files/attachments/pdfs/20161217_barg_pa_ca_summary_table_bi.pdf It states in the agreement: Annex B – Rates of Pay Basic economic increase: Effective June 21, 2014: 1.25% Effective June 21, 2015: 1.25% Effective June 21, 2016: 0.5% wage...
