Lawyer for RCMP official accused of leaking secrets seeks a stay of proceedings
The lawyer for an RCMP official accused of preparing to leak sensitive information is seeking to have at least part of the case against him stayed.
Cameron Ortis, who served as director general of the RCMP’s national intelligence co-ordination centre, is charged with violating the Security of Information Act. He was arrested in September 2019 and is accused of trying to share sensitive information with a foreign entity or terrorist organization. He’s also charged with sharing operational information in 2015.
We’re never going to know what happened here and no one aside from Ortis will lose their job.
Shoplifter at San Francisco Walgreens fills huge bag with stolen goods, then hurls BANANAS at shopper who stood up to him
A San Francisco shoplifter was filmed filling a bag with stolen goods behind the counter of a Walgreens store as staff stood helplessly and watched.
The heist took place on Tuesday at a Walgreens in the Richmond area of the city, and saw the brazen shoplifter hurl bananas and cookies at one man who confronted him.

Gunsmith’s family ‘shocked’ Toronto police cleared in shooting death: lawyer
A Toronto police officer has been cleared of wrongdoing in the shooting death of a Port Dover gunsmith last fall.
In a report on the incident Thursday, Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit said Rodger Kotanko grabbed a pistol and pointed it at two Toronto police officers as they searched his shop on Port Ryerse Road on Nov. 3. SIU director Joseph Martino said the officer who shot Kotanko acted in self-defence.
Based on the SIU investigation into Kotanko’s death, Martino said there “are no reasonable grounds to believe that a Toronto Police Service officer committed a criminal offence.”

A Billion tax dollars a year is wasted on this crap – “Numbers suggest many American protest convoy donors also gave to Trump, Republicans”
Out of 200 of the top American donors to the convoy protest that paralyzed downtown Ottawa and blocked parts of the Canada-U.S. border, half have names matching those of donors to Republican candidates, the Republican Party or former U.S. President Donald Trump, according to analysis by CBC News.
A search of the U.S. Federal Election Commission (FEC) campaign finance database for 200 of the top American donations to GiveSendGo’s convoy crowdfunding campaign shows that 50 per cent of those donors have names and zip codes matching those of people who have donated in the past to the Republican Party, one of its political action committees or Republican candidates.

An abandoned ship carrying an estimated $401m (£295m) worth of cars, including Porsche, Audi, Bentley and Lamborghini models, has sunk nearly two weeks after a fire broke out onboard.
