Creepy covert TPS, OP and RCMP are the reasons Canada cannot be trusted.

Nova Scotia shooting: RCMP and courts still keeping some details hidden from the public
Police documents related to search warrants in the Nova Scotia mass shooting investigation are being released with heavy redactions from Crown prosecutors working alongside the RCMP.
Several documents, known as information to obtain (ITO) a search warrant, have been unsealed by a judge and offer a window into the ongoing investigation after a gunman killed 22 people in rural Nova Scotia last month.
The ITOs for search warrants, police reports to judges detailing the results of their searches and production orders outline evidence police believe is relevant to the investigation.
There are at least 20 documents from the police investigation that several media organizations, including Global News, are fighting to have unsealed to ensure transparency amid growing calls for a public inquiry into the mass killings.
While some of the redactions are important to protect the identities of witnesses, there are nearly whole pages that are blacked out.
Here is a look at some of the key sections that investigators are refusing to make public:
How were the weapons obtained?
One of the most heavily redacted sections of the ITOs describes the weapons found in the vehicle Gabriel Wortman was operating just prior to being shot and killed by police at the Irving Big Stop gas station in Enfield, N.S.
According to the documents, five weapons were retrieved from the vehicle. This included a semi-automatic rifle with the selector switch set to “fire,” another semi-automatic rifle, a handgun with spent shell casings, a second handgun with an empty magazine and a Smith & Wesson handgun that belonged to RCMP Const. Heidi Stevenson, who Wortman killed roughly an hour before being shot by police.
