BRE-X What a bunch of SH**

Well, proof once again that the Canadian justice system is flawed. Where else in the world can criminals (a la Worldcom etc) get away with Billions and not even get a slap on the wrist.

It sure pays to be a criminal in Canada.

Impressive.

But hardly shocking was this: "In 1999 the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) announced it was ending its investigation without laying criminal charges against anyone."

Not to start a fight about the RCMP.....but really....

I guess that will put their motto “we always get our man” to an end.
