Jonathan Daue, Head of Editorial staff at the C.B.C. in Toronto was charged with indecency early last week. After
being found in the paradise motel with two underage male prostitutes during a police vice
operation. Dane was later found to be under the influence of cocaine. "He has
been let go. We are a responsible broadcaster" said V.P. David Bundle. "We had no idea that this
pervert was part of our team. I send my thanks to the officers that were involved."
Organized street crime has hit Toronto hard this month. Petty theft and vandalism have risen to
an all time high. In an interview, the Chief of Police was quick to play down the rumour that

Court Justice James Joyce said that there was no evidence whatsoever to support the C.B.C.'s
claims that these inmates were forced by interogation to commit suicide. In summing up he
singled out the national station for their fabrications and downright lies concerning these

Can we trust our police force? This is the question all of Toronto is pondering. Five more police
officers as yet unnamed have been suspended on charges of drug use and conspiricy to pervert the
course of justice. This brings the total of suspended officers in metro to fifteen. The Assistant
Chief of Police was quick to praise the work of the INTERPOL task force behind the arrests. "We
want these bad apples out of the police force as soon as possible. I now feel that we have
broken major ground in dealing with this problem and can assure the people of Toronto that this
will never happen again." Drug testing in Metro Toronto will become mandatory if Parliament passes
Bill 21 later this week. The bill will require all Toronto officers to submit blood samples once a
month for analysis by an outside body.
And in some good news, Wellesley Hospital unveiled to the public its plans for the new Robert Kent Memorial Burn Unit opening in
