police officers have been told to issue more traffic tickets
And a union representing cops says the move could hurt their efforts to curb the city's gang violence.
Police Chief Keith McCaskill said last night he -- and he alone, without input from Mayor Sam Katz -- recently made the call to patrolling officers and to those in specialized units to step up enforcement against speeding and other Highway Traffic Act offences.

Seriously though, cops write more tickets to get more revenue -> more people contest their tickets -> more overtime for the cops -> even less revenue ends up being there to fight more important stuff, like drive-by shootings.

More deaths across Canada in traffic fatalities compared to all criminal stuff put together.....so direct the attention to where the most deaths occur...on the hwys.....racer wrote: even less revenue ends up being there to fight more important stuff, like drive-by shootings.
drive-by-shootings...they are driving a vehicle, so they will have more chance of being stopped....compared to the "walk-by shootings"

What kind of a man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

The scary part is that momma bears or this world dictate the laws and the gas station managers of this world (personality-wise, not profession-wise) make sure they get passed even when they're unreasonable and illogical.
