I appreciate the points made about the pusillanimous ruling by commissioner Justice Paul Rouleau. None of his conclusions do anything to instill any confidence in the opinion.
I find myself becoming ever more cynical that the truth of most subjects is over-ridden by political wokeness and expediency. Editorials like this one are confirmation for me that there is another point of view, but sadly it is not reflected in the headlines nor in the responses from government. Keep reminding us that federal reviews and inquiries require more scrutiny than they are normally given.Focus on rule of the law, not mismanagement Re: “Questionable ruling on Emergencies Act usage,” editorial, Feb. 18.
“Politicians” could not invent a procedure outside the current legislation. The alternative would be invoking the act earlier, not interfering with local police procedures. Disturbing the peace is a bylaw violation. Yet, it needed the armed forces to remove the tents, trucks and barbecue pit. The editorial seemed to totally forget that it was not just Ottawa involved in the so-called truckers protest last year.
From my perspective no different than the gang of thugs south of us who tried to occupy the U.S. Capitol. Actually it could be a good lesson for federal, provincial and municipal policing. This was minor, compared to the October crisis in Quebec, and possibly what is next to come. Once again, Trudeau walks away unscathed Re: “Use of Emergencies Act justified, might have been avoided: inquiry,” Feb. 18.
If Vladimir Putin comes calling on Canada’s Arctic, do we really want to have to rely on the kindness and charity of our allies to protect us?Canada’s defence needs adequate budgets I’ve been writing to various governments for more than 20 years on the “rusting out” of our nation’s capacity to defend itself.
While our current government “talks the talk,” they do not “walk the walk” with the voting public and with adequate budgets.Cyclists, take responsibility for your own safety Re: “A cyclist’s guide to staying alive out there,” John Ducker, Feb. 17.My wife and I have cycle toured all of B.C., much of Europe and into Turkey over the past 30 years. We have never had an accident involving a vehicle.Another point is to always use arm signals to inform other road users of your intentions.
A response to Nancy Buan: With The Liberals & NDP and their staff likely being influenced, manipulated, and funded by Justin's friends the CCP, there is every chance we might never have another democratic election in Canada.
What a bunch of whiners. There's 10 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Complaining about absolutely nothing. The phrase 'get a life' has never been more applicable. The EP Act was absolutely necessary. Only a fool (or a TC letter writer) would say otherwise.
We need a Justice system not a legal system.
