2nd RCMP staffer suggests commissioner under political pressure after N.S. mass shooting
… Lia Scanlan, former communications director for the Nova Scotia RCMP, wrote in a scathing email to Lucki that during the April 28, 2020, meeting she attended with the commissioner and senior Nova Scotia officers, Lucki informed the group of “the pressures and conversation with [then public safety] minister Blair,” which the group clearly understood was related to upcoming gun control legislation.
“I remember a feeling of disgust as I realized this was the catalyst for the conversation,” Scanlan said in her email dated April 14, 2021, about a year after the shooting.
“I could not believe what you, the leader of our organization, was saying and I was embarrassed to be privy to what was unfolding. It was appalling, unprofessional and extremely belittling.”
I think anyone arrested by the RCMP should consider themselves captives of a private mercenary army.
