Fildebrandt is the gift that keeps on giving. Every time I start to forget he exists, something absurd like this rears its head...

Yea, but that's the slippery line between factual reporting and rhetoric laced opinion. I agree 100% that the RCMP basically saying 'no' to direction from their minister is absurd - but that's my opinion.
I thought the article did a good job of laying out the points but then letting the reader draw their own conclusions.
I've got a soft spot for Kona - I've owned at least 5 that I can think of including my very first mountain bike which got me addicted to the sport. That bike now hangs on the wall of my office.
I hope the brand gets back on track and building fun, high value, unpretentious, tough as nails bikes.
How the hell is this still happening? I'm particularly frustrated that the Crown Prosecutor appears to be covering up rather than going after the police for flagrantly illegal practices.
So three months late in meeting their own deadline, the RCMP has issued a statement saying that they are aware that historically they haven't actually addressed similar recommendations, but this time it's totally going to be different but seemingly doesn't articulate what they are actually doing?
I'm willing to assume that this article (which is just a wire service piece) may not have delved adequately into the report itself, so I'm going to see if I can get my hands on it, but I think the RCMP needs to be significantly more candid and transparent.
Okay, I dug up the report, it's accessible on the RCMP website. . It's basically fluff - there's lots of talk of addressing culture and planning without much in terms of specifics. There's references to actions to be completed by the end of 2023 without actually explaining if it was successfully completed. I remain skeptical.
I would love, LOVE, to hear some of these people explain their thinking...
I would rather let people, supported by the medical system, make their own decisions about what is right for them. There's zilch information about what this person is dealing with (as is their right to privacy), but two doctors believe that it is sufficient that a request for MAID is justified. It's pretty hard for me to believe that we, as armchair experts, know what is best for this person - which is basically the ruling of the judge. It doesn't matter what we, or the person's dad think, it's none of our business.
That's a great, useful print. I'm firing up the printer as I type this!
As a Jewish person, this sort of behaviour makes me sick. It was a populated land filled with people living their lives.
Ahhhh nuts... I didn't notice the stickers...
