FOLLOW-UP TO THE #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER 22 MURDERSThe truth about the deadliest criminal incident in Canadian history has remained untold—until now.Investigative journalist Paul Palango's 22 Murders examined the April 2020 shooting spree committed by Gabriel Wortman that began in Portapique, Nova Scotia, and ended thirteen and a half hours later when Wortman was shot dead by RCMP officers. The episode left numerous serious questions in its wake—most especially why was the killer able to evade police in such limited geography for so long?Since then, the government called a public inquiry into the massacres—the Mass Casualty Commission. Though Palango unearthed a treasure trove of evidence pointing to the possibility that Wortman or someone close to him was acting as a police agent, the commission evaded all the big questions and let the RCMP off with a slap on the wrist. To this day, no one has been held accountable.In his new book, Palango continues to crack the case, delving deeper into the evidence and testimonies of the witnesses who have been ignored. Drawing on his vast experience as an investigative reporter, he has mined the thousands of pages of commission documents to reveal the wall of secrecy and deceptions constructed by the RCMP and the criminal justice system, exposing new facts that may alter the public's perception of what really happened.A tour-de-force of reportage, Anatomy of a Cover-Up accomplishes what the commission set out to do—uncover the truth about the Nova Scotia massacres and bring long overdue justice to its victims. ANATOMY OF A COVERUP: The Truth about the RCMP and the Nova Scotia Massacres—Paul PalangoReplyForwardAdd reaction
This week marks five years since Gabriel Wortman murdered 22 Nova Scotians over the course of 13 hours. Paul Palango and Adam Rodgers are joined this week by Scott MacLeod, brother of Sean MacLeod, one of Wortman's victims. Scott was present for much of the Mass Casualty Commission hearing process, and is a part of the Progress Monitoring Committee that was established to track the implementation of the MCC's recommendations. Scott shares his reflections on all of that, along with his still unanswered questions that remain after five years. Before Scott joins the discussion, Paul and Adam discuss the parts of the federal leaders' debates where justice issues were raised, as well as Paul's week of meetings with publishers in Toronto (and what that says about public attitudes towards policing in Canada).
This week, I review the first annual report of the Progress Monitoring Committee of the Mass Casualty Commission, along with some critiques from a member of the Committee, and my thoughts on how the lack of change can be traced back to the MCC itself. I also cover two appeals from the Supreme Court of Canada, on police use of an accused's cell phone and instructions on unsavory witnesses. I discuss two cases from the NS Court of Appeal on criminal appeals by Robert Rogers and Jimmy Melvin. I cover other NS cases on delayed verdicts caused by Judge Rinkola Brinton and one on what happens when you have an appearance notice to show up to court, but no charges have been laid. Finally, I look at the unfortunate case of lawyer Donn Fraser, who made the news this week after his altercation with sheriffs in the Pictou Courthouse was reviewed by the NS Court of Appeal. Before all that, I have some thoughts on PM Trudeau's visit to Mar-A-Largo, and how many people are misperceiving how to approach the threat of 25% tariffs on Canadian goods entering the United States, as well as the merits of the proposed GST 'holiday'.
With the provincial election campaign underway, I examined the party platforms and publications to see what is being presented in the justice sphere. The answer is very little, despite the efforts made to give good advice through the Desmond Inquiry and Mass Casualty Commission. I attended the Antigonish candidates forum on Wednesday, and saw a candidate do something that I have not seen before. The case of Jennifer Brady has made the news a few times in recent months. This week, she won her case against the Provincial government to have them pay for her out of province surgery. I discuss the case (which included the judge describing her situation as 'kafkaesque') and its implications.
In this episode of Better Thinking, Nesh Nikolic speaks with Kristy Martire about how evidence is evaluated in criminal trials and ways to enhance communication between experts and lay decision-makers in forensic settings. Dr. Kristy Martire is a Professor in the School of Psychology at the University of New South Wales, Sydney Australia. Her research aims to better understand the development of expertise, processes of evidence evaluation in criminal trials, and to improve the communication between experts and lay decision-makers in forensic settings. She works closely with Dr. Neal and the CLJ Lab through the PLuS Alliance and also hosted Dr. Neal at UNSW during her Fulbright scholarship in Spring 2022. Drs. Neal and Martire were retained by the Mass Casualty Commission to summarize best practices in forensic psychological assessment and apply that framework to a particular psychological autopsy in a major Canadian case.

Now the RCMP is saying only "we'll release the implementation details as soon as possible." Guest: Tim Mills. On the night of April 18, 2020, Tim Mills was the RCMP tactical team leader on that night of horror. Tim Mills was also the RCMP tactical team leader in Moncton, New Brunswick, when a gunman shot and killed 3 RCMP officers and wounded two more. Mills retired from the RCMP over non-support for his tactical team members by senior RCMP officers on April 18, 2020. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The final report of the Mass Casualty Commission says "gender-based violence is an epidemic in Nova Scotia and in all of Canada" and it warrants a "meaningful, whole of society response."

The public hearings into the deadliest mass shooting in Canadian history end today. Since February, the Mass Casualty Commission has heard evidence about the gunman and the warning signs reported to the RCMP in the years leading up to April 18, 2020, when he went on a rampage, killing 22 people in Nova Scotia while disguised as a Mountie. The inquiry has encountered multiple delays and controversies, leaving some victims' family members to say they now have more questions than answers. Today, CBC Nova Scotia's investigative reporter, Angela McIvor, takes us through what the commission hearings have revealed and what questions remain.

On tonight's show, I want to talk about three terrible things that happened today. The first and most obvious was the shocking arrest of Tamara Lich, the Metis grandmother who helped organize the convoy to Ottawa in January. Next, the sentencing of a peaceful church in Edmonton called Church in the Vine. The third happened across the country. I'm delighted that our reporter, Drea Humphrey, went out to Halifax to cover the Mass Casualty Commission inquiry. GUEST: Tamara Lich's lawyer Keith Wilson, Q.C.
The RCMP in Nova Scotia has been criticized for the way communications were handled during the mass shootings of April 2020. This week, the Mass Casualty Commission looks at how the RCMP failed to adequately warn the public about a loose gunman. CBC reporter Elizabeth McMillan tells host Matt Galloway more; and emergency alert expert Michael Hallowes explains how a better emergency alert system could have saved lives during the shooting.
Nearly two years ago, denturist Gabriel Wortman, in a fake police cruiser and uniform, terrorized rural Nova Scotia and killed 22 people. Looking for answers, a public inquiry is now connecting the dots between how the killer evaded RCMP and the chaotic situation officers faced on the ground. For weeks, the Mass Casualty Commission has shared its findings, revealed critical documents, and gathered public testimony from witnesses. Today on Front Burner we hear RCMP testimony about how officers constantly felt a step behind the gunman – and how they eventually ended the rampage. CBC Nova Scotia reporter Elizabeth McMillan joins us to explain what happened on April 18 and 19, 2020 and what's still to come from the commission.
