Carrot River: Cars in Canada must have a bumper capable of being hit at low speed and absorbing the energy. Trucks and vans which are classified as trucks are exempt from this requirement. Kevin has installed on his van a clever solution to improve the safety of his vehicle.
KKK - Kanada's killer kops
Thursday
February 26, 2009
by: Edwin Wallace
Swift Current: The federal government in response to the outrage of gang violence in Vancouver and Toronto has introduced a bill increasing penalties for gang related violence. Here in Saskaatchewan and British Columbia we have witnessed a large number of police killing people while taking them into custody or already in hand cuffs. The police explanation is that the "officer feared for his life" and was justified and killing. Only beating a prisoner is ever punished the police killing someone as in the Dziekanski case all but ignored.
