@giftedtypist This whole chapter piles on another layer of trauma and distrust for families who already feel they have been disrespected and left in the dark by this inquiry. #MCC #Portapique #RCMP saltwire.com/halifax/opinio…
(Imagine the family members of victims who’ve had to wait two fucking years to hear this and other important testimony!)

Remember @RCMPNS’s Darren Campbell and the yarns he was spinning in 2020 about the #NSMassMurder?
Looks like RCMP kicked him upstairs. #MCC #Portapique

@CTVAnchor As recently as yesterday, your minister, the Attorney-General, insisted the review was a better option, the best option. You said that last week.

Murphy: It was the federal govt. that said no? You were for it, they were against it.
Stephen McNeil: Right.
Murphy: And you didn't ask them why they were against it?
McNeil: We don't have the authority to compel people forward.
@BillBlair @JustinTrudeau @BernJordanMP
Stephen McNeil: Right.

Murphy: Why did you not reveal that the federal govt. was opposed to it (public inquiry)?
McNeil: Let's be honest, Steve. This isn't about me or my government, or about the federal govt. It's about those families.
Clearly Steve, and let me be clear. Clearly we missed the mark.

The decision not to hold a full public inquiry into the murders of 22 Innocent people means the current Nova Scotia govt. no longer has the confidence of its citizens.
The only solution is to topple this government. Time to answer the question:

.@brianhillGlobal The independent review panel will have no power to compel witnesses or testimony, no power to subpoena evidence, no power to challenge any agency or org that refuses to provide info, and no power to make binding recommendations to govt. globalnews.ca/news/7211458/n…
#Breaking Constable Heidi Stevenson was killed in the line of duty today responding to the active shooter situation in Nova Scotia. @globalnews is releasing the officer's identity now as the police have done so and her family is aware.
Also noting I deleted a tweet where I mispelled her name, defaulted to spelling of my Stephenson by mistake. Apologies
RCMP: multiple 911 calls last night, ERT response and K9 response. Police describe it as a chaotic scene. Secured area and began a search for the suspect. Led to multiple sights in the area including structures that were on fire. Continued through night into morning
