This has been building for a long time, and its more then just law enforcement, and now the whole thing has spiraled out of control.
Open and clear communication solves a lot of problems.

I can't speak to lobbying done before, but the issue was settled by the Supreme Court.

Alas, we Nova Scotians don't like to ever admit that. (This is a touchy subject for me as we just had our municipal election yesterday with lots of people crying foul over an issue that was fully litigated).
