Just a reminder....

Under Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms, "any person charged with an offence has the right .... to be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in a fair and public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal"

Thou shalt not speculate, or share information that has NOT been released by police or the CF - let's let the system do its job, shall we?

Meanwhile, a bit of information from the Winnipeg Police Service on this.

Did somebody forget something when they made their statutory declaration? :facepalm:

For Jim, or for them when they chat with Jim?

Please, let's not cast insults here.

What did dirt ever do to deserve a comment like that? ;D

Investigators believe two men, who are reservists, brought out weapons in front of the guests.

Military officials said the training weapons were owned by the Canadian Forces and described them as pyrotechnics used to simulate live fire.

Is it me or something doesn't add up here?

I believe there is going to be a deeper investigation....

Let the process do its thing. I am not going to toss these two under the bus. They are entitled by law to due process.

Not looking so bad as the original report.

Best of luck to you, Jim.  I'm sure there's a bit of extra work that you're going to have to do for the next little bit concerning this.

Whew... I was wondering when someone was going to draw fire from Nanaimo.

Coincidence that our regiments landed together on D-Day? Maybe not....
