If the CIA or FBI did to Americans what the police in Canada do to Canadians, they would face a courtroom on top of massive media exposure.

It's why Bob Paulson mocked a female employee when they sued his force and why Vince Hawkes won't do a DNA test on a pair of pants so that Jason Boyle's family can get closure so many years later. There's more to both of those stories it seems.
Two sub par, self serving leaders (of many sub-par self serving leaders in Canada) who wouldn't be suitable to lead a Scouts Pack in America, probably neither who in their primes could run the 100 metres in under 20 seconds. When these are who your force is modelled after, no wonder our allies don't trust us.
