An outspoken OPP commander says his termination this week is reprisal for his ongoing legal battle over the hiring of Premier Doug Ford’s friend as the next provincial police commissioner.
“It is clear by [Monday’s] actions regarding my termination, that Deputy Minister Di Tommaso does not appreciate what a conflict of interest is,” Mr. Blair writes in an affidavit.In his hand-delivered letter explaining Mr. Blair’s termination, Mr. Di Tommaso says Mr. Blair failed to heed his warning about respecting confidentiality when the former OPP commander recently filed internal OPP emails with the court.
In his nine-page letter to Integrity Commissioner J. David Wake, Mr. Ford confirms that he has known Supt. Taverner personally for many years, but denied being involved in his hiring as the next OPP commissioner. That appointment has been put on hold pending Mr. Wake’s review.
He looks like a pig in a suit.
Ford is a scumbag, plain and simple. A drug dealing small-time crook who should never be where is. Ontario voters are naive fools!
“Resprisal” is pretty common in the policing world particularly the RCMP when a lower rank calls out someone senior for wrongdoing. CommrRCMPGRC RCMP_GRC_EDIVCO SoutheastRCMP RCMPCHRO_DRHGRC
B.S. The complaint was sour grapes!
Doug isn't Vindictive is He?
All this does seem odd for sure, but if you want to muzzle someone, firing them is the last thing you would want to do.
Of course it is.
