Back in the day they used to require police be of a certain stature and physically fit to be on the force... reminds me of the vid in England with the cop on the ground holding a guys ankle as he's walking away...
How far back are we talking? lol

It would be pretty shocking if there wasn't some form of impaired in there. I would say excessive noise but I'm not sure if it was the rider or the cop redlining that poor bike. Based on the tweet, probably hit and run x 2 as well.So, are we taking bets on what he’s charged with?
- Flight from Police
- Assaulting an Officer
- No insurance
- Plate not valid (if it was a legit 10 day temp I’m betting it is now expired)
- Probably tossed in a ‘non-essential travel’ ticket at him too
Any other takers?
Call me sexist if you like but I still don't belive women should be in the force... I'm pretty sure there has never been a rule/law against hiring minorities, it's always been encouraged.They also didn't allow women to do patrol or hire minorities.
That officer displayed a surplus of restraint. Obviously a senior serving member who may have paunch'd out a bit after 25 years of shift work, but... 'Would lay you out if you required laying out.

Ok now show me the demographics of the 17million people that lived in Canada before 1960... I can't find the full list but by the looks of it, there was about 1000 people from the West Indies and Africa migrating to Canada per year through 1950s. How many of them do you think applied to be police officers in Toronto and were denied because of their skin color?What world do you live in..? Lol
TPS didn't have ANY black officers until 1960.
No law needed... that's just the way it was.
Because our government seems to think controlling people is easier by separation.Why does everything have to revolve around race and Institutional racism in this country.

Ask your uncle how many natives was on the rcmp in NS in the 70s?Well... My uncle was a cop in Halifax in the 60's.
Despite the large black population in NS, the first black officer wasn't hired until 1968.
It wasn't because of some official policy and I'm sure no one was denied a job because of their race, but more so because they didn't bother applying.
Temp sticker, tucked plate, reasonable odds all of the required paperwork was not in order.
