Police-State Fantino

Once again Julian Fantino is seen stretching his official role – in this case using warrantless wiretaps. There is of course his usual fan club cheering him on, yet his attitude remains disturbing. I get the impression that Fantino simply cannot conceive why there should be any restrictions on police power. This is probably his worst transgression since his quasi-endorsement of John Tory for mayor of Toronto in 2003. Fantino talks from time to time about entering the political realm – I for one would oppose his election to any office in this province.
