Exactly . If you want change get ahold of the politicians as a big group.
Complaining on open forum does nothing .
Sorry !!!

Leduc is getting bad for cars getting broke into, punks running around up to know good, tires getting slashed stuff like that. I got a neighbour that are pot heads and there pot head kid made a fort behind there garage to smoke weed in, and his fort is about 2/3 down my driveway so it like he smoking it in my drive way! And I can't even get a cop to come and take a look or even give me a call back about it. But I got a seat belt ticket!

I heard of someone who was having the same trouble with the kind of stuff you are describing. He phoned the cops several times...nothing. He then phoned in shots being fired at that address. They showed up really quick broke down the door and found drugs, guns and stolen property. Of coarse the bad guy was the person who phoned in a false report. But it worked. Ps nothing changed in pg until we got a new police chief...nothing. And now he is leaving!!! The old one got promoted for doing such a rotten job. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news...wan-as-head-of-rcmp-division/article13921303/

Contacting the politicians may be more efective, but complaining on a open forum isnt really hurting anything. It gets people talking about the issue and lots claim the "Man" monitor these forums, so maybe they'll get to read how tax payers feel about the job they are doing.

If the cops do happen to find the boat,(by complete fluke) it will becuase they were checking the theif for insurance and registration to make sure he has paid the "Man" his dues or just hands out tickets to those that choose not to pay for all the insurance, registation ex. Thus the double wammy that law enforment lives off of. Now they are hero's becuase they found your stolen boat (by fluke) all because they were handing out tickets to the wage slaves and because of the fact they found some stolen stuff makes all the government registration/tickets BS seem a lil more legit

Stoping crime doesnt make the "Man" any money, handing out BS tickets does..... Good luck finding the boat.

Just so you are up to speed...

If you read back, in the thread, it was mentioned at the beginning that the boat was found... with other developments

Some of you might of had a taste of it first hand coming sledding to the pg area mountains a while back. Heading home with busted out windows, and a few tickets for good measures. Making you wonder what cost you more. It got bad when the locals had to lay some beatings on because of poor policing priorities. I am just praying that our new police chief will carry on with crime reduction that Eric Stubbs has set. You guys have no idea what it is like unless you experience it first hand.

Until there are serious concequences it is only going to get worse. In front of walmart the other day a 20ish year old male was screaming at the security guy not to touch him and admitted he had items on him as he raced away on his pedal bike.

the trouble with the police is they like to operate like a business, and they generate a whole lot of revenue handing out tickets where as fighting actual crime, costs them court time, and a whole lot of paperwork... I don't know what its going to take to fix the problem, but I agree, its a MAJOR problem. Perhaps they need to farm the all traffic enforcement like speeding, distracted driving and seat belt infractions out to the "sherrif's" so that the police can fight some actual crimes

Oh sorry didn't read too carefully, I don't recognise the truck, don't know who Ted is and it doesn't even look like a very nice boat...lol But theft affects us all!! haha So They chopped it? Now the cops will never find the rest of it. (unless after 100s of calls from these Meth addicts neighbors; complaining about all the criminal activity going on, they decide to finally bust up the crack house; only because they are sick of all the calls, and it happens to be sitting there with a bunch of other stolen chit) Let me guess, a farmer found the remains of this boat in his field, the cops were called and inconvenienced big time! They had to go all the way out to the field, glance at it and call a tow truck.(probably got some speeders on the way though) And here you are attempting to do there work for them, cause they are way too busy handing out tickets and otherwise fawking with good tax paying citizens.... Well good on you! and good luck!! :beer:

Canadian liberals don't want crime fighting... bad guys get hit by police, bitten by dogs and sometimes shot... we have tied the hands of police so much so the Supreme Court of Canada has said its not the bad guy on trial but the police paper work that got him there... cops don't fight crimes they respond to 911 calls.

We as Canadian either have to start trusting the police a little more and let them do their job or keep hiring civilian to watch them and complain... everytime we complain they actually listen and change but change means new paper work and forms to fill out hence slowing them down and further not doing their job

we have only gotten the police force we all asked for... back in the early 80's when cops still kicked people who needed it... we were far better off IMHOP

traffic cops are a no brainer.... only reason we have photo radar, peace officer, traffic, city cops, hwy cops all writing tickets is publice safety... LMAO you are right its a huge revenue... like a voluntary tax...
