Got it.
I'm sure they get up into the lower-6 range quick enough and remember that the guy starting at 54 is gonna be doing parole hearings, not high media profile cases

LOL why did he call 911? Cuz his house was on fire? Forget about the confrontation with the arsonists, He needed emergency services for the possibility of his house burning down.

I am not sure what you are trying to say? that you are "sure" they are really well paid?
Cause I think their pay sucks, is incrediblily off market, and they get paid for only half of the hours they work (if that).
If you think its so awsome, you can always get a job there, they are always hiring.
That's an interesting angle. Out of the box thinking. You're not doing this for free, I hope

What's CCC?
Criminal Code of Canada.
Nonsense. Everyone knows 911 is for calling when McDonalds is out of chicken McNuggets.
I know that they work long unpaid hours and that they're paid well below the market rate. Getting a permanent position, at least with provincial Crown office is pretty difficult in any metropolitan area or even the outlying sticks. You have to go to the real sticks in hopes of getting in on a gig and then look to transfer back to civilization. My buddy's going through the process now (temp gig in the sticks at the moment, looks like it'll be permanent) and I heard plenty of his war stories. However those war stories include lots of hardened criminals getting off on technicalities or getting very light brushes (not slaps) on the wrist and makes me wonder why the Crown would attack a law-abiding citizen like Ian Thomson with such ferocity.

It doesn't take long for him to realize 1. he isn't really the good guy, and 2. he has no real prosecutorial discretion, at that point, it doesn't take long before the next question "If I am not doing any real good or making a difference, why am I getting paid like ****?"
I'm getting mixed signals here. Previously you said they get paid enough. Is "well below market rate" enough? Please advise. If I misread this somehow please accept my apologies in advance.
They are paid "enough" compared to the rest of us. Over there you have 2 types.. Dedicated public servants and scum with political aspirations, so in addition to the financial compensation which is enough for upper middle-class lifestyle, they either get true job satisfaction (which is more than can be said of 93% Canadians) or they get to further their other career goals. Their BMW's may not be as ritzy as private practice lawyers' BMW's but they still got the propellers on the hoods of their recent vintage cars

2 quik points: ???? and the roundel is not actually a propellor.
I'll try to simplify my statement. While their pay in dollars is less than private lawyer pay in dollars, they still get more dollars than most Canadians and either love what they are doing or use the experience for other jobs.
P.S. Your nitpicking on the BMW logo has nothing to do with the point made by the statement and is bordering on trolling - you are being antagonistic for the sake of being antagonistic - not contributing to the discussion.
You're chiding me? Seriously? Why don't you re-read your post #92 and take a moment to reflect. Start with "political scum".

no they aren't. If you do the math, going to school for 7 years of which the last 3 is 20 k per year to graduate with 54 k of income is stupid.
Canada customs was paying 62k straight out of undergrad.
True. In Canaduh it was a woman who called 911 because her cat at her cheeseburger.
All you do is play stupid and troll. I suspect deliberately. Haven't we seen you on here under a different username?
