DECISION MADE by @CommrRCMPGRC @rcmpgrcpolice to NOT open a Canadian criminal investigation is indefensible.

THAT SAID, it raises the question of what constitutes a violation or breach of the #RCMP Oath of Office?

2/2
 IS IT REASONABLE THAT a refusal to investigate the murder of 55 Canadian citizens aboard #PS752 by an alleged "terrorist activity" might constitute a betrayal of the said Oath? **

cbc.ca/news/politics/…
3/3
 ** All 167 passengers (55 Canadian citizens, 30 permanent residents and 53 others on their way to Canada) and 9 crew were killed.

Criminal Code of Canada with respect to terrorist activity stipulates, "the act or omission is committed against a Canadian citizen."
4/4
 THIS ASPECT OF the duty and responsibility of the RCMP Commissioner will form the subject matter of future Tweets.

"Canada's eight-month forensic examination of the destruction of Flight PS752 shows that Canada does not have evidence of its own proving the catastrophe was 'premeditated',"

 A NUMBER OF points immediately stand out in the @CBCNews story. However, at risk of stating the obvious, it is not possible to assess these without first reviewing the referred unclassified forensics report of the downing of Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 #PS752.
3/3
 Language is as important as the information.

THAT SAID, and in closing, there is a general truth which says: "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."

AS A FORMER @rcmpgrcpolice #RCMP (Ret'd), and risking serious understatement, it is outrageous that @CommrRCMPGRC has decided to NOT open a Canadian criminal investigation.

55 Canadian citizens perished aboard #PS752

 IT FLIES IN THE FACE of the Criminal Code of Canada with respect to "act of terrorism", the provisions of which formed the subject of a decision by Ontario Superior Court Justice Belobaba.

AS A RESULT, there exist sufficient grounds, authourity and jurisdiction to warrant

 the opening of a Canadian criminal investigation.

THE INTENTIONAL SHOOTING DOWN of Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 with 55 Canadian citizens aboard (and 30 permanent residents), by any definition or understanding, constitutes a 'mass murder' event.

THERE'S A (SHAMEFUL) 'Ministerial shell game' underway.

"Without such answers,how can we ever be confident that Iran's airspace is safe for international civil aviation ... we are doing all we can to prevent another tragedy?"@OmarAlghabra

WHILE Minister of Transport Omar Alghabra addresses the UN International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) with a "symbolic gesture" for #PS752, it is done solely in the context of the Safer Skies Initiative, a Canada-established initiative protecting global civil aviation.

THAT SAID, for one of the worst mass murders of Canadian citizens in history, omitted was any mention that no Canadian criminal investigation is open.

IN FACT, RCMP Commissioner Lucki made her decision in spite of a recent Ontario court ruling

"While this could be seen as strongest language from Ottawa ..."

IN GRAMMAR, «COULD» is a modal verb typically used to express possibility. @NahayatT wisely includes it.

Statement by Transport Min Omar Alghabra @OmarAlghabra is NOT strong, it is weak.

Original Thread

IT READS AS an empty avowal of advocacy. #Iran, too, will undoubtedly view it for what it is, timorous.

THE (MORE) IMPORTANT QUESTION,is why issue a spiritless and irresolute statement?For domestic theatre?Does it send another message?

IN THE COMING WEEKS that answer will begin to take shape.

PLAINLY, Transport Minister ALGHABRA has not been authorized to refer to #PS752 as an «ATROCITY». He remains shackled by PMO @CanadianPM to a narrative that permits the use of "tragedy" only.

ONE SENTENCE (highlighted in Red) is troubling.

It stands out and is completely incongruous with the emerging fact pattern of this case.
🟥 RED
IT READS ❮AS IF❯ downing of #PS752 was nothing more than a matter of negligence, a 'failure to take proper care in doing something.'

@OmarAlghabra calls it a "tragedy".

"Tragedy" is more great loss and misfortune, even calamity. It's benign and it minimizes.

FIRSTLY, it flies in the face of a recent Ontario Superior Court ruling: "The plaintiffs have established that the shooting down of Flight 752 by

the defendants was an act of terrorism and constitutes 'terrorist activity' ..."

SAID IN OTHER WORDS, it has been now ruled that this was NOT an accident, but deliberate; NOT a tragedy, but an ATROCITY

It is literally, a 'mass murder'.

OUR CHOICE OF WORDS MATTER. Referring

MUCH HAS BEEN SAID about Sir John A. Macdonald and his place in Canada's history ... but, there's something (ugly) that hasn't been mentioned.

 THE HORRIFYINGLY RUTHLESS use by Amherst of this crude form of biological warfare was callous brutality and a crime against humanity.
