Brian Sauvé, president of the union representing front-line RCMP constables, publicly opposes an inquiry into the RCMP’s handling of the Nova Scotia murders on April 18th and 19th, 2020.
This stance is moronic… yet it’s also wholly predictable.
I am appalled to read Brian Sauvé’s claim that an inquiry can only hurt front-line RCMP members.
“Members on the street wear that when media blasts a headline that the RCMP could have stopped ‘x’ number of deaths. The guys on the street are not the ones who made the operational decisions.”
First, I couldn’t give a rat’s *** about RCMP morale. Not when myriad legitimate grounds exist for an inquiry into their actions.
As for Sauvé’s second point, “the guys on the street” who don’t make operational decisions – two “guys on the street” dumped a ton of bullets into a fire hall, then sped away without ever bothering to find out of they injured, or worse, killed anyone.
They did so with zero concern for the lives of those innocent people inside. Their actions constitute gross negligence at best, and criminal negligence at worst.
From where I sit, Brian Sauvé wants to prevent an investigation into those two RCMP members and blocking an inquiry is his smokescreen for it.
For Sauvé to claim – in any way, shape or form – the public has no right to learn why and how a fire hall was used for target practice by two RCMP constables is obscene in the extreme.
There is ample evidence the RCMP bungled some aspects of this case, most notably their failure to issue an emergency alert.
“If the public wants to go down that road of a public inquiry,” Sauvé said, “then let’s not look at what happened in the last 12 hours, let’s look at our justice system, [and] if our probation system if our health care system, if our firearms system, if our community support system failed the public in any way.”
While I’ve called for patience and giving the RCMP the benefit of the doubt (and still do), I have zero patience for Brian Sauvé’s self-serving stupidity.
Let’s stop playing silly bugger, Mr. Sauvé.
Every firearms control law passed in the last 100 years failed to stop the Nova Scotia mass murderer. No law passed in the next 100 years could stop him and we all know it.
Blaming the justice system, the probation system and the mental health care system won’t get you off the hook for your gross stupidity either.
None of those systems have a thing to do with the RCMP’s actions during the 12 hours you’re so desperate to cover up.
People from the lowliest beat cop to the highest ranking RCMP member in Nova Scotia must rightfully explain themselves and their actions.
You can’t gloss this over or blame anyone else for what happened that day – not if you expect the mere citizens of Canada to retain an ounce of respect for the RCMP and its front-line members.
Grow a pair already, Mr. Sauvé, because right now you are the one dishonoring the very RCMP members you claim to represent.

RCMP are afraid their perpetual lies will be exposed again. I have evidence they lied even about prohibited handgun classification, sending wrong licences to such owners and then ordered them to get rid of their lawfully purchase and registered firearms because they don’t have “proper” licence.
When was the last time the RCMP told the truth about anything ?
Remember the gun grab during the 2013 flood in High River. To date, there has been no public inquiry into their illegal actions during the 13 days that they broke into residences, garages and sheds and seized firearms while the owners were barred from entering the town and trying to recover what was left of their homes.
The RCMP are nothing but government thugs.
Nailed it. How can they fix things and improve morale if they don’t get to the bottom of what wrong? The who and the why? By not having an inquiry, the respect for RCMP will drop like a wrecking ball, again. I know many good RCMP officers,both retired and currently serving, that are just shaking their heads. And this starts at the top! They are frustrated, not just with management, but with our pathetic Justice System. Yet they get blamed for that failure.
Very well done, we need to keep their feet in the fire. Someone needs to start a petition demanding a public enquiry. Ed Allin.
Thanks Christopher I Will be sending your article to my MP and any others liberal or conservative that I can dig up, of course there needs to be an inquiry into incompetence on behalf of The RCMP.
Or we could just blame this whole mess on an inaminet object like a gun; Justin!
Does the RCMP not have a Bonehead Squad?
Ya know, a panel of appointees assigned to prevent members from making boneheaded moves…in the same way one might employ a proofreader.
Mama always said “if you can’t say something nice about someone don’t say anything at all……. enough said.
RCMP like FBI in USA has become the political tool of the democrRAT =Libtard Gun grap lobby, RCMP and Turdeau never say about anything about stopping Criminals in Canada from having guns which in the Nova Scotia shooting WERE ILLEGALLY IMPORTED FROM THE USA, Islamists and ISIS terrorists and others Criminals are passing through our OPENED borders unvetted but Turdeau wants law abiding Canadians being disarmed. RCMP knew about an car which was 100% looking like an RCMP car and the owner being mentally unstable and not allowed to own guns. RCMP fucked up, even US consulate in Halifax passed an alert about the shootings. Scandals abbout rapes and sexual abuse by RCMP officers are covered same as Turdeaus criminal offenses and corruption. FBI in USA let mentally disturbed man having a gun and even after 30 complaints didn’t interfere, also Police waited till as many students as possible were killed, it seems RCMP did the same scam in Nova Scotia.
Brian Sauve…Psychopath
Psychologically unstable
Need your resignation Brian
You are a threat to public safety
