YET, it is (strangely) silent on a recent Ontario Superior Court decision (20 May 2021) that found the shooting down of Ukrainian International Airlines Flight PS752 to be "intentional" and an "act of terrorism",
2/6 even though dated 24 June 2021. One might even say, «DEAFENINGLY SILENT».
THAT SAID, silence has its own sound.
MORE THAN SUFFICIENT time existed to include even a passing, simple acknowledgement of existence of ONSC decision, as it is undeniably relevant and significant
3/6 development.
THE ONSC DECISION is in «STARK CONTRAST» to the conclusion reached by Forensic Examination and Assessment Team (FEAT)(Below).
THE FACT THAT its existence is not so much as acknowledged raises concerns.
IT IS BEYOND the scope of this Thread to explore
4/6 (or, attempt to speculate on) the knot of plausible factors that would have likely clogged the decision-making process surrounding the findings in this report.
SUFFICE IT TO SAY, that the conclusion reached by FEAT is «AT ODDS WITH» the decision of Justice Edward Belobaba.
5/6 WHILE FEAT employs the nuanced phraseology "found no evidence", the reader would be well-advised to bear in mind, what is captured in the following eight words:
☞ "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."
THIS ASPECT will be examined in an upcoming Tweet.
TWENTY-NINE (29) WORDS were all Prime Minister Trudeau needed to complete the steering away of his government's narrative from justice AND SHIFT TO negotiations and reparations.
TAKEN TOGETHER, the 'Forensic Report' [hereafter, the 'REPORT'] and the RCMP

Commissioner's letter [the 'LETTER'] to the families of the victims of Ukrainian International Airlines Flight PS752 #PS752 < CLEAR THE WAY > of the only potential obstacles and hindrances that might have prevented this (cunning) shift.
3/24
DON'T OVERLOOK these eight (8) seemingly innocuous-looking words in personal 'Message From The Prime Minister To The Families.'
NO MENTION of justice, ONLY reparations. The families view this as [quote] "blood money" in the absence of criminal culpability and prosecution.
2/4 RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki referred to criminal ❮ONLY> with respect to tracking of threats and intimidation. She steered clear of any mention of a domestic Canadian criminal investigation into the intentional downing of the aircraft. Finally, she was asked whether there
3/4 was/would be such an investigation. When she informed them there would be no Canadian criminal investigation, anger boiled over.
AT THIS POINT, RCMP technicians muted microphones and disabled 'Hand Raise' feature preventing many family members from participating further.
"AS A FORMER @rcmpgrcpolice#RCMP (Ret'd), and as a Canadian, I am outraged."
I will NOT sit idly and I will NOT remain silent. 55 Canadian citizens (and their families) deserve nothing less than knowing THAT we, too, feel anguish.
2/9 THIS DECISION, which for appearances, will be (grimly) portrayed as having originated solely with RCMP Commissioner ...
THEN ONE MUST ASK:
What is the likelihood that the Commissioner made a decision « AS CONSEQUENTIAL AS » whether 'to launch or not open a Canadian criminal
