We thought that 'PAPERS PLEASE' Died with the violent death of NAZI Germany.
We even understand this malignant conduct with under-educated and inadequately trained police officers in the USA..
We do not expect this criminal behavior in Canada and we are not going to tolerate coercion from anyone much less a police officer!
So what pops up on television's YouTube?
A disturbing video that perfectly epitomizes the subjecting of the Citizenry by bully police officers who believe that they have special powers to contravene our 'Canadian Charter of Rights' by coercing private information as in "PAPERS PLEASE". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUSnJdS2CLIThe misconduct displayed in the 18 minute/28 second video prompted a Google search of the Calgary Police Department, which uncovered systemic criminal corruption within the Calgary Police Service.

Our Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom are our defense precisely against government abuse and tyranny just as the abuse of the 'First Amendment' of the U.S Constitution!
.
The tragedy is that the breaking of the highest law of the land regarding our Canadian Charter of Rights and freedoms holds no penalty for the perpetrators!
.
Officer Heikkinen's disrespectful conduct garnered a whopping 4,610 negative comments!
As can be witnessed by our email-letter to the Mayor of Calgary (below Dated Monday 4/13/2020) the Calgary City Fathers acquiesce to police corruption and abuse by their silence. A Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is worthless if it can be so disrespected by abusive Police.

PS: It is imperative that our Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms be protected from Authorities who would disrespect Canada's premier 'law of the land' with penalties befitting the crime!
Now that we have determined that the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the supreme law of the land protecting Canadian Citizens surely it follows to ask who is going to enforce these protections?
