RCMP Corruption Scandal

I obviously can't provide any more information than is at the CBC link that brought the story to my attention.

All I can do is offer groundless speculation, that there is a culture of corruption in Ottawa. A culture of corruption that promotes partisan goons like Zaccardelli (who is receiving the "goon" insult for his responsibility for the Mounties excessive use of force at the APEC Summit) who are more loyal to their political masters than to the people and the institutions that they serve.

Check out this CBC backgrounder on Zaccardelli.

And all this puts to mind the firing of diligent whistle-blower Shiv Chopra at Health Canada. He exposed the dangers of Monsanto's BGHT and was rewarded by being harrassed and driven from his job. Who is really controlling these "Mandarins"?

I'll say one thing for the USians, ... their political system is more compromised than ours is, but we don't have 1/10th the internet focus on the machinations of our political system that they do.

Zac the guy appointed by the Liberals, pure corruption.

ah yes Wayne, ... the Liberals.

Unlike the Conservatives, ... Mulroney, pure as the driven snow.

Unlike Grant Devine in Saskatchewan.

Unlike Harris in Ontario, ... making Ontario Hydro a welfare office for his untalented "whiz kids" while throwing people out on the street to freeze.

I'm sure we'll be hearing about your hero, Stephen Harper and his gang of idiots soon enough.
