AN EDITORIAL SAYS TORONTO'S POLICE CHIEF BLAIR AVOIDS EASY ANSWERS ON GANG VIOLENCE - FACT IS THAT BLAIR IS A TOTALLY INEPT AT HIS JOB


POSTED RESPONSE TO AN EDITORIAL MIN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL

Blair is, quite simply, the most inept police chief we've had.

He totally blew it on the G-20, and never had even the grace to apologize.

He totally blew it on many other occasions, including importantly the time officers wore their uniforms to a demonstration at City Hall, against his direct orders.

All the offenders got was a light slap, instead of the dismissal they well deserved for an act which had great overtones of threatening our civil government.

Blair doesn't even speak with much thought, his is always a rapid expulsion of clichéd words, a torrent which seems intended to overpower listeners and avoid exchange.

He does not represent our best values, and the fact that he now uses terms from liberal values to protect his inept performance is not praiseworthy.

He should resign.
