Toronto police corruption

I've had many encounters with Toronto police, where i was stopped and asked questions by police officers even in my own neighbourhood. every one of these encounters ended with a (208)or better known as a police information card. I understand that police officers have to make sure that our neighbourhoods are safe, but how can I feel safe when it becomes hard to trust Toronto police officers.

I came across this article about corrupt police officers in the Toronto police service. However, this makes me wonder about how many more officers out their are corrupt but haven't got caught yet. and also makes me wonder about people that were victimized by corrupt police officers, and won't speak about. The city has to start cleaning up the streets by dealing with police corruption, because I believe its much more dangerous to have them out there than actual criminals.

I've added a link to the article I read. click on the title of this post for the link.

Omar Khadr needs our help

Omar Khadr's story has been on many newspapers headlines all over Canada. He was detained in Afghanistan by US Marines when he was 15 years old, and have spent the past 7 years in the Guantanamo Bay detention centre.

Omar is a Canadian citizen, but he hasn't received any support from our government which makes me wonder about our foreign policies when it comes to getting detained outside of our boarders. If I travel anywhere in the world, and I get into a situation like that of Omar's, I will be expecting the government of Canada to help me in which ever way I need their help.

Here is a short video that will help explain the situation Omar is facing, please watch and comment on what you think about what the Canadian government has done for our fellow Canadian so far.
