Another Canadian dirtbag. THIS is what is in store for you if you become socialist. This is gentle dirtbag by Canadian standards.

Political dirty tricks and the police: Toronto detective faces discipline charges for leaking private arrest records

A Toronto fraud detective illegally dug out confidential arrest records that were later used in a political smear campaign, and lied repeatedly about his actions, a police watchdog agency alleges in a striking new report.

Ontario’s Office of the Independent Police Review Director (OIPRD) has called for disciplinary charges against the constable, accusing him of “serious” misconduct.

Meanwhile, the agency said it is continuing to investigate a second, off-duty police officer who asked the detective to obtain the information, and a civilian who distributed it to numerous community leaders.

The office’s initial report on the case, a copy of which was obtained by the National Post, delivers the first detailed account of an extraordinary political dirty-tricks operation made possible by police snooping.

The campaign’s target — would-be Conservative politician Nick Gahunia — told the office the smear had “ruined” him, ending his drive to be the Progressive Conservative candidate in the riding of Brampton Centre in last June’s Ontario election.
