But more than a year later, not a single suspect has been taken into custody.
Is anyone honestly surprised by this?

If that include the 'naive' greenies being used by not-so-naive opportunity looking to absorb wealth and material from people gullible enough to support not owning anything and paying for their life existence with the walls of a 15-Minute City for the rest of their lives, then...sure...(3)...Or (3) incompetence in a naive push for “green” outcomes.
In the article, the RCMP are suggesting that they're building the case so it doesn't get thrown out in court.
I hope that works!

And in the end the money the leads to Big Green. Big Green is reality a watermelon. As G2G said they know what they are doing.Since the Jordan decision which established presumptively unreasonable time limits for trial, crown is extremely reticent to see charges laid in a file unless disclosure is pretty much completely ready to go. Depending on the complexity of an investigation, that can vary from being a significant venture to being absolutely monstrous. Doesn't mean it doesn't get done, but you have to have your ducks in a row. I know nothing about this investigation beyond what's in the news, but drawing inferences from what's discussed, I would speculate that there are likely a number of elements that add considerable complexity.
The defendent(s) in a criminal case in Canada are entitled to all relevant material. Police are not well positioned to gauge what might be relevant to the defense, so, practically, disclosures generally contain everything that isn't clearly irrelevant. That's a LOT. Getting a disclosure package ready to seek charge approval (in B.C., police cannot just lay charges; crown has to approve it) can be a major endeavour. I think, from the way it's described by the unit commander, that that's a big part of what is going on right now. They could also be at the point of having sufficient evidence to charge some people, but not yet being there for others, and they want to get those ones locked down before they pull the trigger on the whole thing so that ongoing investigative efforts aren't burned by moving early on others.
Anyway- this is all inference and guesswork on my part, but it's based on experience in major case model investigations, and how much it can suck getting stuff ready for court on a big file. Which this undoubtedly is. I'll be fascinated to hear more of the detail if and when this moves to charges and info starts going public. We can expect that the press would pretty quickly apply to get court applications for warrants etc. unsealed, and those can be very telling.
What do I get?
A second gold star to go with your first one for most accurately guessing how many P-8As Biden was going to tell Trudeau to buy.What do I get?

“I can’t stand the phrase ‘just transition,’ I’ve said this for years,” replied O’Regan, who represents the Newfoundland riding of St. John’s South—Mount Pearl.
“‘Just transition’ is a word that workers hate and my constituents don’t like, so I don’t like it either.”
“The oil and gas industry is going to be with us for quite some time, and I would argue proudly so,” O’Regan said.
...models produced by Employment and Social Development Canada across nearly 300 national occupation groups projected 14,000 job vacancies in the oil and gas extraction industry over the 2022-2031 period.
“These represent approximately 13 per cent of the sector’s employment levels in 2021,” the reply read.
Inquires to the Labour Minister’s office seeking insight on O’Regan’s comments were instead directed to Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson, whose office maintained the challenge facing the government is not that there will be too few jobs in 2050, but there won’t be enough Canadians with the skill needed to participate in tomorrow’s labour market.
“This legislation will help to ensure that every region of Canada and every Canadian worker is at the centre of every policy and decision the Government makes,” said ministry spokesperson Keean Nembhard, referring to a 2019 government promise to introduce legislation meant to “support the future and livelihoods of workers” as Canada shifts to a low-carbon economy.
“This approach has been adopted by a number of other countries and jurisdictions, which have embedded ‘sustainable jobs’ commitments within climate legislation, including Germany, Scotland and New Zealand.”
So the reason we're taking a leap of faith is because others are doing it too.
I can't push back the tide of people who want to return to the age of coal-burning home fireplaces, but I will certainly try to stand apart.
