There is only one reason for an apology here.
The Mayor used the wrong word to describe Stephen Harper’s
new private security unit recruited from veterans to work at campaign stops.
"Brownshirts," the Mayor’s word, were a uniformed,
quasi-military group, officially known as the SA.
The Mayor probably should have described them as Gestapo, a
secret police force which wore plain clothes.
Then, there'd be no need to apologize.
