This is why Canadian crime writers need lots of weapons research...

Funny.  But it looks like he's wearing a gun.  We need more pictures of police like this.

I laughed myself off my chair with this!  Wonderful.  It's over 100 degrees F here in suburban Toronto, with a humidex of 150.

[Pepper Smith]

I hope that was a finger stutter and that you really meant 105.

 

Looking at a high of 100 here today.  Considering Fort Smith has already had 20 consecutive days of 100 or higher temps this month, I don't guess I can complain about the temperatures where I am, especially since we're not on the river and they are.  Humidity levels must be horrible for them.

[Melodie Campbell]

We get humidity up the ying yang, being on Lake Ontario.  But I exaggerate.  It was a mere 110 humidex here. But it's fun complaining about heat.  We're wimps in Toronto.  Once, we got a snowfall of 2 feet, and they brought in the army.  Not kidding.

[John McFetridge]

It's a cute picture. But it doesn't really make up for the G20.

Yes, what with the Vancouver riots over - wait for it - hockey, Canada is really flying in the face of its historic motto:  Peace, Order and Good Government.  Particularly the latter, some would say.

[Tanis Mallow]

Yeah but it was hockey!

This is as violent as it gets. That's his personal bottle of water filled with millions of microbes looking for a new home. Our neighbor to the north takes biological warfare out of the lab and on to the gritty urban streets.

LOL - well at least you know it's NOT the Mounties, If anyone aims anything at them, out come the zappers - -

[Melodie Campbell]

Now really, Charlie!  Everybody knows in winter we use snow ball fights up here.

I AM 'up here' Melodie,  -and I will never forget the local news reviews of October 2007 when four of our RCMP officers repeatedly tasered and killed a confused and frightened man who was 'armed' with a stapler. - This is NOT an isolated incident, many people 'up here' are extremely wary after their first experience with RCMP.

[Melodie Campbell]

Yes, that was a tragic and horrific incident in our history, and I would not mean to make light of it, or any other like it.
