FASCISM?

Re: RCMP Report-a-Drug-House program

Think about this: the RCMP is resorting to intimidation and
harassment, rather than the rule of law, to attempt to manage a
community. Doesn't that sound a little fascist for a free and
democratic society like Canada? Didn't we fight a war so that this
type of state intrusion wouldn't come to Canada?

Today it's about drugs -- and the problems that come with them --
because the government refuses to control them with regulation and
taxation. In the future, it could be anyone else the community
doesn't like. What if a gay couple moved in next door and the
neighbours didn't like them?

It's not surprising that there hasn't been any complaints, given the
toothless nature of the RCMP public complaints system. Perhaps civil
action may be the route for victims of this type of treatment to take.
