Basic idea: 1% of all income from all police and DA employees goes into a fund. If a person spends time in prison and is found to be innocent later, the fund is used to financially compensate the innocent person based on how long they were in prison.
Shamelessly stolen from this post; it makes me think that what if they actually do believe this and that it warrants investigation?

> Lucki suggested a phased-in approach to reducing the backlog of surplus vehicles. Phase one is what the RCMP is doing now: leasing temporary storage space and crushing decommissioned vehicles that have been involved in accidents or no longer work — vehicles the RCMP says have low resale values.
> Phase two would permit the police service to sell off-road vehicles. Phase three would allow sales of on-road vehicles, such as Dodge Caravans and Toyota Camrys.

Yes, there are minor differences in the grille and tail lights and most have steel wheels etc, but the general public would not notice that. If someone wanted a fake police car, all it takes is a white car with decals and that's it. Do you think 60 year old boomer grandmas are going to be able to tell "oh yeah, this Ford Taurus has civilian LED tail lights rather than the incandescent assemblies found on the police models. This guy is a phony"?
And for Canadian car enthusiasts who don't want to impersonate cops, kiss goodbye the great deals you could find at government auctions. Ford Taurus 3.5L twin turbo V6 AWD sedan for cheap? Gone. Ford Explorer SUV for your growing family that can't afford at new prices? Gone. Dodge Charger V8 AWD sedan that was only sold to pol

The jurisdiction on hunting land seems to be very mixed, I'd like to know at least what branch of government I'll be interacting with. Can a state game warden come check on you on federal land?
