Redford and the RCMP will not be happy, as they were likely just hoping that everyone would forget about this.

Access to Information Commissioner Suzanne Legault says over the past months her office began receiving complaints from individuals saying they were not hearing back from the RCMP after filing access to information requests

“This past year at some point, they just completely stopped responding,” Legault said of the RCMP. “Requesters were complaining to my office, but we didn’t even have any response from the institution.”

It's time that our federal government started holding the RCMP responsible for their actions. They seen to be making a habit of defying the government lately.

Good point.... A while ago, there was some reporter from Calgary (I believe) on this forum trying to get info from persons who actually had their firearms taken into protective custody. Last I checked, there were NO ACTUAL CASES REPORTED TO HIM........

Go figure. Right up there with that nice dentist the sheriff beat up for no reason (or so she says!)

So you actually contacted the reporter yourself to see if any cases were reported to him?

Ever stop to wonder why they don't hold them accountable? Plausible deniability maybe? There's a reason the gov't allows the RCMP to do whatever the heck they want, we'll eventually find out what it is.

The fact remains, guns were seized in High River - maybe people are nervous to talk about it, maybe they are too damn busy with other things.

Not picking on anyone, but maybe, just maybe it's being stirred up by persons who aren't involved with it at all??? I have nothing to support that statement other than the school of life, but it sure wouldn't surprise me!
