Mark Saunders, former Toronto police chief, mayoral candidate

Discuss:

1.RCMP charges military members with trying to create 'anti-government militia' and seize land: Does this plot prove Canada’s top terror threat is home-grown, anti-government extremists, not foreign jihadists?

2. As Toronto teen lay dying, witness says the West Park Healthcare Centre ignored cries for help: Teen was shot, but died while the person who called 9-1-1 waited 6 mins and 43 seconds before the call was answered, how do we stop this pattern? Should a publicly funded healthcare centre be allowed to keep its doors shut to a bleeding teen because it “isn’t an ER”? Do health-care staff have a moral (or legal) duty to give first aid outside the building?

3.Trump shrugs off questions over Epstein memo, calling them ‘a desecration’: The Justice Department now says it won’t release any more Epstein files, do you think there’s more than meets the eye here? Case closed or a cover up? When Trump and Elon broke up one of the first things Elon did was say Trump was on the client list, but now there is no list?

4.Toronto police says it’s reviewing this year’s AFROFEST after arrests made and safety concerts raised: Two years in a row, third times the charm? What will it take to get it right next time? Police said they expected around 22,000 people but more than 30,000 showed up, what was the actual cap on people allowed to attend the event?
