When a 45-year-old Hamilton man died in a rapid burst of gunfire last Friday morning only three people were present. One of them is dead and the other two aren’t talking.
The province’s Special Investigations Unit confirmed late Monday afternoon that, 3½ days after the shooting, their investigators have not yet been able to interview the two police officers on scene when the distraught man was shot multiple times.
Police had responded to calls for a man walking into traffic on the Lincoln Alexander Expressway near Upper Wentworth. He was ordered off the highway, complied and climbed up the embankment towards his townhouse.
The officers followed him behind a berm where, shortly thereafter, witnesses heard between three and eight rapid-fire gunshots.

Growing medical marijuana at home to be illegal in 2014: Health Canada

A marijuana grow-op is pictured in this file photo.
Sweeping changes to the ways Canadians will be able to access medical marijuana are on the horizon.
It will be illegal for Canadians to grow medical marijuana in their homes as of April 1, 2014, Federal Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq announced Monday. By then, Health Canada will no longer sell and distribute marijuana for medical purposes and it will only be accessible through a licensed provider approved by the federal government.
The number of Canadians under the Marijuana Medical Access Program has surged from 500 in 2001 to more than 30,000 today, Aglukkaq said.

ELSIPOGTOG, NEW BRUNSWICK – About 25 RCMP officers in uniform, along with about a dozen police cruisers, today continued to flank equipment owned by gas exploration company SWN Resources Canada as they proceeded with their seismic testing of highway 126 in Kent County, New Brunswick.
Pushing the scattered crowd of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people back “50 metres distance” from the southward approaching seismic trucks – or ‘thumpers’ – the RCMP first arrested one demonstrator and chased another into the woods before arresting Susanne Patles.
Patles, a Mi’kmaq woman, had scattered a line of tobacco between herself and the approaching police, then proceeded to draw a circle of tobacco in the highway, where she then knelt and began to pray. After about two minutes, the police proceeded to arrest Patles. An officer Bernard noted that she was being charged with mischief.
