Canada supplies the US with %25 of it's imported oil, and is the largest export of oil to the US in the world.  What effect do you think that would have on the US economy if it stopped?


Edit: Sorry about the triple post.  :eek:  :o

You should look into it a bit maybe Torque.  You think that police officers have no responsibility for the results of high speed chases? I assure you your mistaken. You think that police departments all over america are not puting more stringent high speed purcuit policys in place because of the deaths of incocents?
Your mistaken.
But I guess its easier to lash out at me then to search google yourself.

Capt Apathy....

"how would we feel about people from another country crossing our borders, unauthorised, not stopping at the check-point and armed? "

Welcome to the U.S. as it is right now.  Happens everyday in the state I'm from. Isn't likely to change any time soon either.

Other than Valdez getting a bit busier, and the reopening of well heads in the CONUS, not a whole heck of a lot.  That and more US dollars to import crude from Siberia....

Try again...

No lashing Pongo and I myself would tend to agree with you if the woman's death had occured during an active pursuit. From what I've seen on an overhead view of the whole pursuit the Niagara Police cruisers were not in an active pursuit mode or anywhere near the suspect's truck when the woman was struck and killed.

"Moments after smashing into a parking meter and fleeing on foot, Cornelius looked Niagara Regional Police Constable Ed Bednarowski in the eye and told him he was going to kill him.

He pulled out a handgun and fired, narrowly missing Bednarowski's head."

Then the officer and two bystanders tackled and hauled Cornboy away. Polish cop i bet he got the phonebook.

Ok two weeks of Celine.:aok

Changes in Police policy on pursuits is simply because of civil liability. In other words law suits. Lawyers know the criminal is not going to have any sizable amount of cash to get in the suit. They then file against the Police as te government that is responsible for the department has cash. It's not about who is at fault or responsible for the damage or injuries, it's about getting money. The deep pocket is the one that gets sued.

There was an announced policy change in Tucson several years ago that pursuits would not be carried out except in cases involving a serious felony such as homicide and armed robbery where a victim was injured. Shortly after the policy was announced fleeing became very common including for simple traffic offenses. Funny thing was that when the idiot crashed later without a pursuit,the suits still came for the city. Some for not stopping the idiot BEFORE he crashed and some for causing the crash by trying to stop the perp in the first place thereby causing the perp to flee even though there was no pursuit of the idiot. There just isn't any way to please folks, especially civil lawyers.

I have not seen any film on it Torque.
But I admit that I over reacted to this thread and I am sorry for that.
