Exposing an incompetent Ottawa Citizen reporter



One of the greatest examples of how far the Media Party will go to protect the Liberal Party is the case of Jaspal Atwal (see here and here) which is what made me confront Ottawa Citizen reporter Ian MacLeod when he omitted naming Atwal in his story about the Trudeau break-in:

“He’s very high-profile right now, doing well in the polls. Who knows, some kook may have been motivated by something he or she has seen on the news,” said Ujjal Dosanjh, the former premier of British Columbia and federal minister.

Dosanjh’s office was firebombed in 1999 while he was serving as a member of British Columbia’s legislative assembly. In 1985, a man beat him with a lead pipe for speaking out, as a private citizen, against Sikh extremism. (see here)

But I certainly wasn’t expecting this response from MacLeod:



And I sent him these which also included the photos of Ignatieff and Rae posing with Atwal:





This is MacLeod’s bio from his Twitter account

“Ottawa Citizen reporter covering national security, terrorism, surveillance & privacy, nuclear, aviation safety.”


– think about that.

Jaspal Atwal, the man at the centre of the India trip fiasco, was recently arrested and charged with one count of uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm, the Sun has learned.
A source told the Sun he spent more than one day in jail prior to an initial court appearance for an offence that allegedly occurred on April 23.
A media relations officer with the RCMP in Surrey, British Columbia said Atwal is expected to appear in court on May 24.
Atwal was convicted of attempted murder in 1986 when he tried to assassinate a visiting Indian politician to Canada.
He was the source of a major controversy for the government in February when he was invited to a dinner with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the home of High Commissioner of India.
Photos of Atwal surfaced with Liberal politicians and Sophie Trudeau, raising questions about security protocol and the screening and vetting of delegation invitees.
