The Nova Scotia shooter that killed 22 was probably an informant for the RCMP

The withdrawal of $475,000 in cash by the man who killed 22 Nova Scotians in April matches the method the RCMP uses to send money to confidential informants and agents, sources say.

 

Gabriel Wortman, who is responsible for the largest mass killing in Canadian history, withdrew the money from a Brink’s depot in Dartmouth, N.S., on March 30, stashing a carryall filled with hundred-dollar bills in the trunk of his car.

 

According to a source close to the police investigation the money came from CIBC Intria, a subsidiary of the chartered bank that handles currency transactions.

 

Sources in both banking and the RCMP say the transaction is consistent with how the RCMP funnels money to its confidential informants and agents, and is not an option available to private banking customers.

Oh dear, eh?

So on top of totally mishandling the actual shooting, the RCMP also has probably lied about their relationship with him, and possibly ignored multiple complaints about this man in the past for his threatening behaviour, abuse, and illegal gun ownership.

 

RCMP heads should roll.

Dismount the Mounties?

And Canadian gun owners get punished for the RCMP and other agencies fucking up.

Cool! No one should give 2 shits about gun owners.

Not that I have heard of, unfortunately.
