oh for heavens sake that is NOT what the Judge said, and putting it in quotes? eye roll
What the Judge did say :
Armstrong described the offence as “unspeakably horrible” and “callous.”

“It’s not just selfish. Selfish is eating the last donut in the box,” she said.

“This is way beyond selfish. I couldn’t find a word. It’s a horrible thing to do to the mother of your children and a woman who you profess to love. The impact of it will be with her for the rest of her life.”
Please, test that assumption and then take note of the result

And yet, no jail. No keeping this horrible person away from others in a contained fashion. Free to do it all over again. How does it matter what the judge blah blah blahs?

Clearly Judges don’t give a damn about victims of crime, more worried about treating criminals with kid gloves.
I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.
It appears US voters hated Woke more than they hated Trump.

I don't believe the news report of this being a medical issue at Orchard Park, why would the RCMP dispatch so many cars if an ambulance was needed ?

I suspect the RCMP were dispatched because of any concern of criminality taking / taken place.

I chatted with a highways RCMP officer a couple of years ago and asked about the highways being shut down and the degree of investigation after a vehicle crash. I thought it was for ICBC reasons but he replied that it was to rule out any criminality

Thinking more officers will bring down crime rate? I believe if the troublesome repeat offenders were not released the same day and if found guilty given a sentence that will keep them off the street for a few years, the current lot of constables, IN ANY JURISDICTION, will have a reduced file load, less time off and the local tax payer will not have the same increase in property taxes.
Provincial taxes might go up if we have to build and staff a few more prisons, but I'm ok with that.

What would the crime rate rate be if the RCMP and other police services dished out the sentences ??? They are getting tired of this catch and release and more constables will offer more catch and release..

If they put them on a beat patrol in the worst areas and our judicial system would actually hold them after arrest then yes it would help

Yes, a simple solution. :up: However the suits seem to want to make it difficult.
