Is It True Canada?

First we're raiding Amaya. Why not just take a payoff and look the other way.

More importantly, the supreme court ruled it's okay for cops to search your cellphone without a warrant (upon arrest)

Could you imagine the backlash if this was in the USA?

I wonder how many of the arrest videos where cops used excessive force would just happen to go missing?

Coreect me if I'm wrong but the two agencies reside in different countries. While hopefully advangageous to bot both

don't ever think a U.S,. agency will take control in Canada with-ought a black record and a life finished a hal-ligr

completely l penniless

A collective yawn. The police already wield outrageous power. The 4th amendment has been repealed. Our phone and internet activity is already being surveilled.

Voters don't care. They want our leaders "tough on crime" and catchin' tarrists.

This is absolute BS even though it wouldn't affect me because I don't own a cellphone.

I would have no issue with it if they had to get a warrant first which is, I believe, they way they did it before this ruling. This will get abused big time by power hungry cops on the beat.

The Supreme Court of Canada ruled on Thursday that law enforcement officials can go through the cellphone of someone under arrest without a warrant, as long as the search relates directly to the arrest and police keep detailed notes.

Also, it "does not give the police a licence to rummage around in the device at will," Justice Thomas Cromwell wrote.

sure it does
