Everything Canadian Police

[Hurtlander]

As requested:

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's office issued a statement Monday afternoon.

"Canadians across the country were shocked to hear of the tragic death of Sergeant Andrew Harnett of the Calgary Police. The Prime Minister joins Minister Blair, Commissioner Lucki, and all Canadians in sharing his deepest condolences and heartfelt thoughts with his family and friends, along with the entire policing community who has suffered an irreplaceable loss."

Okay thanks for that. I stand corrected, the PMO made a statement.... but Trudeau himself has never personally acknowledged the situation, which as far as I’m concerned is pathetic.

Why has no one posted the nationality of the suspects?

As one was a youth at the time there is little information released.

Nationality is Canadian probably.

Ethnicity, is that the word?
Alphonse Stanley Traverse, who is 41, and Marlene Velma Louise Pagee, who is 42, have been charged with manslaughter and several other charges.

I'll leave that up to others to guess. Though I have my suspicions.

I was assuming the question was directed to the Calgary incident (the suspects' pictures have been posted in the news).

we all know why, sad but true,

Think about it - the person they're checking on could be known to possess firearms. They could be sitting in their living room, watching the police approach the house on their monitor, ready to shoot them through closed doors, walls, curtained windows. Hardly sinister - officer survival skill.

If that was the concern, she shouldn't have been standing in front of the door and knocking on it. Well know as the fatal funnel.
I'd sure like to hear why she turned the camera away, very odd.

100% correct

Any cop that knows their *bleep* from their armpit knows not to stand in front of a door. If the excuse for re-aiming the camera was because of concern for her safety from the inhabitant, why would she be standing in front of the door, that's REALLY putting herself in danger.

Would appear the constable got her training from the police procedures seen on TV

Too many things today are from "as seen on multi media" of one source or another. Hopefully our "professionals" of many sorts aren't following those sources.

Like SO MANY, especially the media, the crime/charge of "Obstruction of Justice" is once again misused.

"Obstruction of Justice" is basically effecting or trying to effect a judicial procedure. Bribing a prosecutor to drop a charge, trying to coerce a police officer to not charge someone, or a witness not to testify in a trial.

The media use it incorrectly all the time, so you can be forgiven having heard it used incorrectly so many times.

Example : The police are trying to effect an arrest and a third party interferes with the police and tries to stop them or impede them, the media wrongly call that "obstruction of justice"

What happened at English Bay and in the above scenario is "Obstruct a Peace Officer"

• Obstructing justice
  139 (1) Every one who wilfully attempts in any manner to obstruct, pervert or defeat the course of justice in a judicial proceeding,
  
  Offences relating to public or peace officer
  129 Every one who
  • (a) resists or wilfully obstructs a public officer or peace officer in the execution of his duty or any person lawfully acting in aid of such an officer,
  • (b) omits, without reasonable excuse, to assist a public officer or peace officer in the execution of his duty in arresting a person or in preserving the peace, after having reasonable notice that he is required to do so, or
  • (c) resists or wilfully obstructs any person in the lawful execution of a process against lands or goods or in making a lawful distress or seizure,

And... yes he should be charged with Obstructing a Peace Officer. (In Canada the law refers to a "police officer" as a "peace officer")

They wait way too long before tazing these fools.
