We Say: The Charges This Time

Last Updated on: 23rd February 2017, 10:55 am

Remember that firebombing of an Ottawa Royal Bank? Well, here’s who got charged with the incident, and they’re not the demographic I pictured.

• Roger Clement, 58, of Ottawa, charged with arson causing damage, possession of incendiary material, using explosives with intent to cause property damage, and mischief.
• Mathew Morgan-Brown, 32, of Ottawa, charged with arson, arson causing damage, possession of incendiary material, using explosives with intent to cause property damage, and mischief.
• Claude Haridge, 50, of Ottawa, charged with arson, careless storage and handling of ammunition, and mischief.

And here I was expecting people in their early 20’s. And gees, what’s with all the ammo?

I wonder how ex-professor Denis Rancourt feels about a couple of his students now. Would he protest their arrests now? And I hope this doesn’t come back to bite him in some way if it shouldn’t. Anything can be taken to the extreme, and if his classes only pushed for people to get involved in causes and speak out for what they believe in, then his classes shouldn’t get blamed for how a few people chose to get involved.

Something tells me that, at the G8/G20 meetings, these three men won’t be there. They’ll be in some j3 meetings.
