RCMP officers were executing a search warrant at an illegal cannabis storefront on Highway 4 in Potlotek at 7:30 a.m. when a group gathered to protest and blocked the highway.
“In consideration of protester safety, officers chose not to leave the premises using their vehicles. Once officers cleared their vehicles of weapons, they departed on foot and their vehicles remained in Potlotek,” the force said in a news release Friday.[…]
“The seven RCMP vehicles that remained in Potlotek after the search warrant execution on April 2 were removed from the community this morning. Damage to the vehicles includes broken windows, dents, deflated tires, removed tires, and urine-soaked interior surfaces,” it said.
“Protest”. That’ll help with recruitment.
Nobody gets fired for these Cowardly, poorly planned actions.
Either that, or they are planned.
I can’t believe anyone trusts ANY Cops these days. Most are not reliable, truthful, or smart. RCMP are the worst. Useless against FILTHY CORRUPT LIBERALS
now you got it!!! yeeeeee HAAAAAA. oh look. SDA finally caught up to what *lve* said for over a decade.
progress !!! a buddy called the cops on his fiancee despite my REPEATED caution not to.
consequences include need for legal aid. he just wanted the apartment key back
but couldnt wait for ‘cooler heads to prevail’ aka there is NO SITUATION they cant make worse.
the joke is you only call them if there is gunfire, hopefully get THEM in the crosshairs. heh heh heh.
Not surprised it’s in Nova Scotia. Wonder if that’s where they send the low IQ scum of the RCMP?
What a sad organization the RCMP has become.
Potlotek, or Po’ low-tech; whatever.
Looks like a shithole bump in a shithole part of what’s now shithole Nova Scotia.
The RCMP walked away instead of enforcing law and order, but the RCMP is known for walking away from their formerly good reputation as well.
WTF are they busting a pot shop for? Pot is legal. Let the tax collectors deal with pot shops, legal or illegal.
GOOD. RCMP are lucky that’s all that happened to those cars after executing a warrant for illegal cannabis.
Do they have a replacement for Gabriel Wortman who can restore those cars?
I wished they’d have duked it out and everybody died.
Buddy, I’m with you, arm both sides

The tribals say they can sell without being licensed, and the government says they have to be licensed.
All of this because Trudeau was a coward, and now they all demand special treatment
“Trudeau was a coward” see, that right there, a coward leading a nation of mostly cowards.
he fit right in, took the cowardly way and scored 3 elections doing it.
how are the byelections going? 10 more days for the cowards to screw up some more.
“The tribals say they can sell without being licensed, and the government says they have to be licensed.

Exactly so. As usual, follow the money. Lots of Liberals and their friends are apparently in the retail pot business and they hate competition.
No way The Empire allows a Conservative “win”. We are going ELBOWS UP FULL RETARD MODE.
Canada51 is the way.
Time to call out those horseback heroes who charged through the Freedom Convoy protesters in Ottawa.
Bit of a trip for the Toronto Mounted Unit.
I’m sure if it had been a group of white protesters or something to do with white owned ostriches they would have got the full Freedom Convoy treatment.
If they’d been white, there’d have been fifteen horses stomping on every head, they’d have seized all the assets of all the protesters and all their living relatives, and exhumed all their ancestors and confiscated the grave sites. Being flagrant chickenshit doesn’t mean the Mounties aren’t filthy nasty, when their masters let them off the leash.
I used to think it was BC which had done something to deserve the worst RCMP in Canada, and that they were generally disliked in Alberta and Sask as well
This seems like a tax matter more than a criminal matter, and I don’t care who sells or buys pot, I have no horse in that race at all.
They send an entire crew of mounties in to close down a cannabis shop over a licensing issue but in my area they are 90 minutes away in a life and death emergency, unless they are already busy with someone else’s life and death emergency. Then you might see them 12 hours later when they give you a number to use for an insurance claim.
seems Louis Riel simply used the wrong tactics.
