Like Serpico I guess Lewis is an honest cop
Sad to say but they seem to be in short supply.

In my Opinion; It may seem strange that Ron Lewis is not comfortable with the term “whistleblower”?

I wonder what Fraser MacAulay is going through within the RCMP after he was promoted to the third in command in Ottawa right now.

Is this just another attempt for the RCMP to fix things again instead of dealing with the issues?

What did Ron Lewis expect would happen when he went to the media and went against an organazation like the RCMP that trained him and held him in confidence all those years.

I’m supprised that they didn’t tar and feather him, label him as a traitor, kick him out of Canada and take his citizenship away from him for exposing the former Commissioner of the RCMP.

Just because the proceedings were aborted in Ottawa and were honored and shut down doesn’t mean behind the scene it’s alright with what they did in everyone’s eyes, even though it’s needed.

So now he feels a need to fix it for the RCMP.

I once read in a book that a “double minded person is unstable in all his ways”

What is probably needed is clear POLICY to deal with some of these serious issues and what should be done BEFORE it happens again and it gets smeared in lies and deceptions. So next time there’s some sort of recourse instead of a bunch of “dah, what happen here” circulating around in the media and the round table like how do we fix this one as if nothing ever happens in the RCMP to warrant some sort of serious action or actions.

What is troubling here is it seems their actions are without impunity and there’s a undertone within the ranks that they are not to be held accountable for any actions unbecoming of an officer but rather stressing that they must move forward like nothing happened and it’s business as usual.

Disregarding what has been done and with very little regards for the victims left behind and the linguring cost to families, is this fair?

Why is Ron Lewis complaining about being called a “whistleblower”? Lets look at one of the other officers that helped him reveal what the former Commissioner of the RCMP was doing in Ottawa and testified at the hearings in Ottawa.

Chief Inspector Fraser MacAulay for his part was promoted and is now working not in James Bay but in a comfortable place in Ottawa as the third in command.

So if he doesn’t like the term “whistkeblower” then maybe this term might be better suited for the three of them; “Lamplighters” a term stated by New York City “Frank Serpico” after he spoke at a Project on Government Oversight (which should considered here in Canada) due to reported crimminal activities within his own Police Force.

Hot debate. What do you think? 6  5
