They already have the support of Alberta's solicitor general, who said he will back their calls for a review of the national drug program. "There needs to be a national debate on many of the issues that surround the deaths of our boys," said an emotional Rev. Don Schiemann, father of Peter Schiemann, one of the four Mounties killed by James Roszko. "If we walk away from this with no changes, then we will forget what they died for. They died to maintain the right, and we dare not abandon that." Constables Schiemann, 25, Brock Myrol, 29, Anthony (Tony) Gordon, 28, and Leonide (Leo) Johnston, 34, were killed by Mr. Roszko, who ambushed the four inside a Quonset hut on his farm. The families made the announcement during the launch of a commerative pin dedicated to the fallen Mounties. - --- MAP posted-by: Beth
