Good Police Work = Cheap Political Points
Stockwell Day, our Emergency Preparedness and Public Safety Minister, responded to the excellent work of the Sûreté du Québec, RCMP, and Montréal Police and other agencies by saying: “...We're sending a message that this government intends to have safe and secure communities. People should not test our resolve."
Mr. Day's comments are a transparent attempt to gain inexpensive political points on the coattails of excellent police work involving several police forces, particularly when this investigation likely began years before the Conservatives came to power. It's the police who deserve every bit of the credit, not Stockwell Day or the Conservative government.
