As someone who lives in Toronto they're a god damn corrupt force that does jack all. it's a damn weekly thing where you'll read in the news ANOTHER Toronto cop on paid suspension for something. AND then it's a yearly thing when the city budget comes up and surprise, surprise TPS asks for more money. And the beauty of it all is that city council isn't even allowed to debate the amount. they can either say yes or no.

TPS is pretty much the mob.

I just listened to the episode. It's really interesting to hear how they've defended themselves over the decades by attacking reformers.

This isn't unique to Toronto. Most police unions in this country have cultivated this culture of partisanship, ideological adherence, and a complete lack of personal accountability. Police see themselves as above the law, and the communities they serve as enemy combatants in an ideological battle. Cops willing to hold other cops accountable for their actions will always be to first to be pressured off the force. Police unions will regularly endorse political parties, then police protests along those same partisan lines. Police in Ottawa let the convoy terrorize the city for weeks so right wing media could paint it as a federal problem, then claim tyranny when forced to take action. Do you think it's a coincidence that every single right wing outlet that reported on the unauthorized use of the Emergencies act never mentioned the judges comments on the lack of enforcement?

These organizations are rotting from the top, the idea that it's just a few bad apples is laughable.

Are these dorks wearing body armor at a presser lol
