Political interference

The federal government was interfering with what the local Nova Scotia RCMP could tell the public after the Nova Scotia mass shooting in April of 2020.

What information was revealed to the public in the days following Canada’s deadliest mass shooting wasn’t solely up to the RCMP, claims the director of strategic communications for the Nova Scotia RCMP.

In an interview this past February, Lia Scanlan told members of the Mass Casualty Commission the federal government was involved in what the police force told the public about a gunman’s 13-hour rampage that killed 22 people.

“Minister (Bill) Blair. All these people, the prime minister, they were weighing in on what we could and couldn’t say,” Scanlan said.

This is pretty damning if you ask me, I don’t want the government to get the police to tell the public, the politically correct messaging, I want the truth.

Scanlan said Lucki was advised “by her people” not to, but ended up doing one-off interviews anyway, where she gave “inaccurate” facts or spoke about information that was “fluid,” such as the number of structures that had been burned.

“And she went out and did that and knew damn well — and it was all political pressure,” Scanlan said.

“That is 100 per cent minister Blair and the prime minister. And we have a commissioner that does not push back.”

I mean this is stuff authoritarian countries do and sure you might agree with the agenda that the federal Liberals are doing but they won’t be in power forever and if you support this type of action now, you’ll have no leg to stand on when a future Conservative government does the same thing.

This inquiry is going to be a massive coverup of police incompetence and failed government policies.
