STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES - TORONTO POLICE BOARD




Today's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story titled "Toronto police ask top court to stop G20 suits". Wow if this doesn't spell out to both the public and the media the inherent corruption and perversion of Police boards, then I don't know what will. Both a lower court and the Ontario Court of Appeal have stated that two class action lawsuits against Toronto Police are appropriate and should proceed. The lawsuits arise out of the mass arrests and detention of over 1,000 people in what "was later described as one of the worst violations of civil liberties in Canadian history.".

The Toronto (civilian) Police Board instead of accepting the lower courts decisions and allowing the suits to go to trial on their merits have appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada trying to derail the suits before any trial occurs. This is not what civilian "oversight" of the Police is supposed to be all about. If I had to guess I would expect that just like here in Waterloo Region, the Toronto (civilian) Police Board is filled with political appointees who are former politicians looking for easy money and profile on a generally do nothing Board. What a perversion of democracy yet again by our politicians.
