Another angle on the weapons cache story...

BTW, I know multiple people who have four or five times the number of firearms supposedly seized in the raid. Different societies, I guess.

Like I already said, I trust that what the RCMP is reporting about this take down is true.
Sorry for the inconvenience if that is in contradiction of what you want to believe.

I can't believe anybody who lived in the old U.S.S.R. and studied any of its history, would have implicit faith in any government...

And I can’t believe that you can be so obtuse as to draw any parallel with the RCMP actions in Coutts or the Government of Canada with my experience of studying or living in “the old USSR”.

I really don't have a dog in this fight. While I am sympathetic to the trucker's position, holding a city hostage? Nope, that's not right.
On the other hand, if my side thought the correct answer was to financially ruin these people, try to starve them out, and threaten to kill their dogs? I'd have to reexamine my position.

From your perspective, why is it better for the public good for the police to track down the protesters and file fines and criminal charges?
Serious question, because here, they'd probably disperse the crowd, maybe arrest some who are the most adamant about making a scene and not pursue it from there. If they did that in Canada, why would it not be enough to just disperse the crowd?
Please love yourself.

Your serious question regarding Canadian law enforcement would be more objectively and accurately answered by one of your fellow countrymen who have greater expertise in Canadian affairs than my own. After all, I only live here.
Nevertheless, I’ll try to answer you from the perspective of law enforcement.
It is about accountability. Contrary to what you may be led to believe, the police will only track down those protesters who on video surveillance during the protest, or eye witness accounts indicate an individual or group of engaged in some sort of criminal behaviour. In this case usually acts of public mischief or vandalism to property.
Protesters not observed being engaged in criminal activities will be not be tracked down by police and charged with any criminal offence.
This a common police practice here during any acts of disobedience, large scale protests and high security events such as the G8 summit. It has often been used in the wake of our much publicised and often violent hockey riots that have occurred in Montreal and Vancouver.
I support it and I support our law enforcement officers. The way they managed and dispersed the occupiers in Ottawa was exemplary.
