Local groups, and a criminologist, react to Edmonton police Chief Warren Driechel’s trip to Israel. The chief says his trip informs him on how global issues play out in Edmonton, including protests. Lauren Boothby reports.
Wait, so the Edmonton Police Service Chief went to Israel to understand what?
The International Criminal Court issued warrants for arrest for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. The US has unjustifiably attacked International Rule of Law by sanctioning the ICC and its staff. In so doing, the US continues to attack a judicial institution.

But I guess the Chief is in good company considering his own attacks against the Justice system in his home province of Alberta.
