Here's my last car:

"A 26-year-old Stettler man and a 28-year-old Ponoka woman were driving in a stolen black 2008 Toyota Yaris, which had been reported stolen from Red Deer the previous day. Around 9 p.m., they “accessed Highway 12, entered the eastbound lane, and struck” the other vehicle, according to Cpl. Cameron Russell from the Stettler RCMP detachment.

The other vehicle, a red 2008 Ford Focus, was driven by a 41-year-old Stettler woman, who was accompanied by her 15-year-old daughter. The black car ended up in the south ditch and the red in the north ditch.

The occupants of the black car had to be extracted by Stettler Fire and Rescue, which arrived on scene shortly past 9 p.m. The four individuals were taken to Stettler hospital and released, though the occupants of the black vehicle were released directly into RCMP custody."

I never had a car stolen in Manitoba, but this is my car a months go. The 26 year old man who stole it, has a lengthy history of this kind of activity, and was released 12 hours after it happened. He was only charged with possession of stolen property. They almost killed a mother and daughter.

Not sure how bad car thefts are in Calgary, but I'm hearing from the RCMP and residents of Red Deer, that they are at record levels. Something has to be done about the rise of auto thefts in Alberta. How many more innocent people have to die?
