What a load of BULLSHIT! "The officers are to be commended, she added, for taking responsibility for their actions." This is applying a double standard, one law for the those who don't matter to the police and government and one law for those who matter. It is no wonder that the public knows the Peel police are as corrupt as politicians are. Socking still the effort is so bias towards the Peel police that they are trying to drum up sympathy for criminal cops - "a difficult way to start a career," Bordeleau said." NO, it should be the END of his career! What is next these Peel police officers criminal to do list, robbing banks or maybe to see if they can get away with murder? Well how about we give the a commendation, no wait how about a medal for beating up 2 defenseless youths and then have a parade down Main street, I am sure hazel McCallion would love to lead it. All together this really puts us in our place and shows what happens if we get uppity!

Police watchdog faces probe - June 8, 2007
Provincial Ombudsman André Marin announces a probe of the SIU Special Investigations Unit yesterday, citing eight cases he said are “compelling enough to warrant a field investigation.” Just another case of taxpayers being shafted by the police and law enforcement in general. Those who would claim they are there to protect Canadians are really just laughing all the way to the bank while actually endangering our lives by way of their lack of action. Accountability for police in the post 9/11 age of fear mongering - NEVER.

"The officers involved “essentially colluded and then committed perjury, en masse."
