Правоохранительная система Канады часто вызывает разочарование.
Тут пьянь ездит по дорогам пока не убъет кого-нибудь.

Rockwood couple killed in car-train crash
Seniors' car rear-ended into path of oncoming commuter train

The man accused of plowing a Rockwood couple into the path of a GO Train is already facing two impaired-related charges in Peel Region.
In the moments before the horrifying accident, Halton police received numerous calls about a Mercedes sedan being driven erratically.
But before they could find it, the vehicle slammed into a car waiting at a rail crossing for the commuter train to pass.
The helpless occupants, Andrew and Henrietta Miller, 66 and 65, were launched into the path of the train as the Mercedes careened across the tracks and rammed a third car. The 34-year-old woman in that vehicle was not injured.
Ingram Rahim Bakhsh, 28, of Milton, has been charged with two counts of impaired driving causing death, two counts of dangerous driving causing death and one charge of refusing to provide a breath sample. It was not his first brush with the law.
He is also facing charges of impaired driving and failing to provide a sample in two other incidents in Peel Region.
At a press conference at the scene yesterday, Halton Deputy Police Chief Andrew Fletcher said the Mercedes didn't appear to slow down before it hit the Millers' car and spun across the tracks.
"This incident could have been prevented . . . it's total disregard for community safety," Fletcher told reporters as work crews repaired the damage.
Fletcher suggested there has been so much media attention about "guns and gangs" recently that people seem to be missing the message about the dangers of drinking and driving.
"A vehicle in the hands of an impaired driver is as dangerous as a gun in the hands of a gang member," he said.
In February 2006, Bakhsh was charged by Peel police with failing to provide a breath sample. A month later, he was charged with impaired driving and driving with a blood-alcohol level over the legal limit.
Bakhsh suffered non-life-threatening injuries and spent the night under police guard at the Milton District Hospital. He was taken to Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital for tests before he was brought to Milton Court for his first appearance yesterday. Dressed in a striped shirt and jeans with his hands cuffed in front of him, the accused showed no emotion as the judge read the charges to him to the first time. He was not required to enter a plea.
He had no visible injuries as he stool quietly in the prisoners box and will remain in custody at the Maplehurst detention centre until his bail hearing Monday.
