    That would be an unconstitutional charge and would not stand muster. Pass a law like that and it's overturned in the first case.

    If it's incompetence, they need "retraining" and a mark on their records. If it's corruption, they need charges.

    I'm imagining that it's something like they failed to "caution" him, ie. what the Americans would call "reading him his rights." Seems superfluous to do it for a cop, but letter of the law and all that.

    I'm wondering why it's considered an unlawful search and why The Crown just folded on it. A little more information would be nice.

    It depends on the circumstances. If it was an unforeseen procedural issue then nothing should happen. That sort of thing comes up all the time. If they screwed up then a notation should be made in their files, that will affect future promotions and raises. If they "spiked the ball" for a buddy...

    There's also the possibility that "paid by the load" was in play, which makes drivers take shortcuts on safety.

    Speed camera update (Sept.11)

    There's a reason why several Brampton driving schools have been decertified, over the last 10 years or so.

    It's not all about profit. Some of it is about governance by sound bite. Gotta seem like you're doing something for the electorate. Ridiculously low speed limits. Photo RADAR. Speed bumps. Advanced walk signals. If it's all about pedestrian safety then how about enforcing the jaywalking laws...

    It never really is, however, I have the evidence of my own eyes.

    "If they wanted to overtake The Capitol, they could've. They didn't." Um yeah, they did. This guy was better as a comedian than he is as an Ivermectin promoting nutbar. It feels like he's just courting controversy, to me, as he was also on "The Young Turks" far Left-Wing channel, a few years...

    Speed camera update (Sept.11)

    And Brown is a lying sack, because he's already done that by extending school zones. For example Bramaela Road, past Bramalea Secondary School, used to be a uniform 60 Kmh. It currently has signs stating "Speed Camera Coming Soon" and, when that sign went up, the limit past the school was...

    Perhaps if the various cities had put speed cameras just in appropriate areas, instead of plastering them all over as Patric Brown has done, there wouldn't have been the uproar that made Ford push fro their banning? Vaughan voluntarily discontinues their more limited use in September.

    American cops call it "compliance strikes."

    I think that's 3 more than the amount they originally announced were going to be installed, back in late Spring.

    TV shows currently watching

    I've been watching the anime "One Punch Man" now that I finally found a version that was dubbed, on Disney+. There are very few things that I'll make the effort to watch with subtitles. It's a sort of ironic take on superheroes and good stuff, overall.

    The only real surprise in this video is that there aren't more Swift trucks involved.

    This is what the incredibly poorly named "Defund the Police" movement is about. It's not about just taking money away from police departments, but rather diverting funds that are currently being used so that they can do jobs that they are neither equipped nor trained for, and giving those tasks...

    From what I recall OnRoute locations are Provincially owned and the residents contract to run it for them. Mess up the signs and that's damage to government property.
