WE'RE IN THE DARK ABOUT MORE THAN THE LEG RAIDS

Editor,

When it comes to the RCMP, Canadians are still in the dark about a 
lot more than the Leg raids.

Take Mayerthorpe, for example. Four officers tragically cut down by a 
well-known, repeat-offending, child-molesting, gun-toting, 
cop-hating, neighbour-threatening, chop-shop owner who just happened 
to be growing some marijuana. That day, RCMP Commissioner Giuliano 
Zaccardelli, Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness 
Anne McLellan, and CPPA President Tony Cannavino all started howling 
about "grow-ops and organized crime". Classic bait and switch from a 
group of people who seem completely incapable of telling the truth - 
especially when it comes to marijuana.

We will probably find out the truth about Mayerthorpe and the Leg 
raid around the same time we find out the truth about the Air India 
incident - never!
