Sounds like the Canadians are determined to catch up with Fat City™ when it comes to nasty tricks to play on the little guy.
I would hardly call distroying lives "a trick", would it still be a trick if the shoe were on the other foot? Do you think watch groups like this help, and should there be more? http://winnipegcopwatch.org/
Oh, man! This is so sad! It seems to me this guy was scared into situation after situation. But they're cops, so what do ya expect? I am very much anti-entrapment.
