Cops erred, yet spared by report
In one of the most popular pictures of the year, riot police walk the streets of Vancouver looking for looters as a couple kiss after riots broke out when the Canucks lost in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
The review was done by former Vancouver Olympic committee head John Furlong and Doug Keefe, a former deputy justice minister in Nova Scotia and the two conclude police and civic officials made mistakes, but they said they were unwilling to blame anyone other than the rioters. They recommend the province give more powers to dampen the sale of alcohol for regional events, that a regional tactical squad made up of the RCMP, the Vancouver police and others should be formed to deal with such regional events and that a special court should be established to deal with people accused of rioting.
