Blair, once again proved he has no clue ........!
"Gilroy, speaking of your self in the third person is not good."
Jut trying to keep it as simple as possible for you.
"'yup joined in 1968"
Maybe you can share where you joined in 1968 and what organisation?Why did you leave and then apply to the RCMP while you still had another job?
The fact that the RCMP wanted Non White males is not at all unusual and the same applies all over Police Services in Canada. Going back to Sir Robert Peel principle "the public are the police and the police are the public". The government wants officers to reflect the Diversity of the community they serve. Critically important because we need officers that speak many of the scores of languages used in Canada.They could not infiltrate gangs or even understand what is being spoken over tapes in a wire tap room. Affirmative action is not something I agree with
but is pretty well everywhere now.
MP Blaney stated the following in the house,
"Blaney, the second of the three Conservatives to go after Trudeau and Blair, claimed federal law is already clear: police can suspend firearms licences and prevent someone with mental and health issues or links to crime from acquiring a firearm in the first place."
One would take from that sentence that every police officer can suspend a firearms license,that is not exactly accurate,there is a process
starting with the Chief Provincial Firearms Officer and on appeal for firearms hearing to a Provincial Court Judge.
70 (1) A chief firearms officer may revoke a licence, an authorization to carry or an authorization to transport for any good and sufficient reason including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(a) where the holder of the licence or authorization
(i) is no longer or never was eligible to hold the licence or authorization,
(ii) contravenes any condition attached to the licence or authorization, or
(iii) has been convicted or discharged under section 730 of the Criminal Code of an offence referred to in paragraph 5(2)(a); or
(b) where, in the case of a business, a person who stands in a prescribed relationship to the business has been convicted or discharged under section 730 of the Criminal Code of any such offence.
74 (1) Subject to subsection (2), where
(a) a chief firearms officer or the Registrar refuses to issue or revokes a licence, registration certificate, authorization to transport, authorization to export or authorization to import,
(b) a chief firearms officer decides under section 67 that a firearm possessed by an individual who holds a licence is not being used for a purpose described in section 28, or
(c) a provincial minister refuses to approve or revokes the approval of a shooting club or shooting range for the purposes of this Act,
the applicant for or holder of the licence, registration certificate, authorization or approval may refer the matter to a provincial court judge in the territorial division in which the applicant or holder resides.
Nice deflection there Gilroy! Those sections deal with the CFOs authority.......How about posting “the rest of the story”... like the PFO and AFOs authority....Maybe post the FA and CCC sections that already exist for seizing firearms licences and firearms, by every police officer, where authorized. You should know this stuff !!!!
The village idiot and his Minister of Confiscation have no clue of current firearms legislation. They both proved that........again !
