Across the inner city and near LRT stops, addicts are shooting up, rooting through garbage cans, harassing shoppers at grocery stores, establishing pop-up encampments. This isn't just a downtown thing. A couple of blocks from the Chinook LRT, clusters of homeless people were setting up their tents last week. That's how entrenched encampments started in places like Nanaimo and Victoria, in B.C. This newsletter tackles hot topics with boldness, verve and wit. (Subscriber-exclusive edition on Fridays) By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc. Please try again Calgary must not go there. A drive along Pandora Avenue in B.C.'s capital reveals makeshift shelters for block after block. A decade of enabling by ultra-progressive local politicians became intractable civic disaster. The problem has never been worse in Calgary — even though overdose deaths are reported to be down, the province keeps supplying more recovery beds and the city throws money into solutions for 'social disorder.' Those official crime statistics are nonsense. It's likely that thousands of street crimes per year go unreported. I probably see 20 crimes and major bylaw offences every week. Addicts consume their drugs while families with children walk by. People who could be alive or dead sprawl across doorways of residential buildings. Does a person help or move on? Do we call the police or an ambulance? More and more, Calgarians just go on their way. That doesn't mean they lack compassion; they're just getting numb. A while ago, a man and woman on bicycles crept up behind us and tried to grab my wife's purse. She shouted. They paused, weighing whether to get serious, and then raced off. We didn't report that crime. What was the point? There wasn't a hope those people would be found and charged with attempted robbery. On Friday, half the city seemed to be reading Rick Bell's column on the woman who was ordered by a bylaw officer to take down her kids' swing. The swing had delighted kids for seven years but was suddenly found to be a violation. The rationale? The city owns the tree, and the tree might suffer. Trees first, people maybe — that's the drill. I have never seen a city bylaw officer even talking to the suffering humans who create all kinds of mess, or harass passersby for not giving money, or sell drugs openly. Police officers on foot — old-time beat cops — are nowhere in sight. Officers are often present with EMS at medical emergencies, but the regular run of social disorder is mostly ignored.

SiRT terminates investigation into man's arrest, injury in Moncton

An RCMP detachment can be seen in this file photo. (David Prisciak/CTV News) The Serious Incident Response Team (SiRT) has terminated an investigation after a man was injured during his arrest at the Lion's Club in Moncton, N.B. The man complained of wrist pain after members of the Codiac RCMP arrested him after being called to disturbance at the club on June 3, said a news release. The man went to the hospital where he was released the next day. Police received information that his right hand was fractured, but after investigating and reviewing medical records, they determined the injury wasn't serious. The director determined the incident did not meet the SiRT mandate. The investigation was terminated and the file closed, said the release. SiRT is responsible for investigating all matters that involve death, serious injury, sexual assault, intimate partner violence or other matters of public interest that result from the actions of any police officer, on or off duty, in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick.
