From private communication this morning;
I have had a learning week. Vehicle stolen july 2 and just recovered July 10… my car has more evidence in it than one can imagine, but lack of police has them not interested…
Maybe I should look on Amazon for a fingerprint lifting kit..
At least I now know what they can’t lift fingerprints from. All those crime shows on TV etc are wrong..
You cannot lift prints from a can of any type of spray or vape machine or skateboard.
I am so much wiser.
…then when I told them that the car had no plates on it and that if the thieves were going to use my plates on another vehicle I wanted them to know. I was told to just go on the saskatoonpolice website and put in my file number and add that information.
I would have thought while I was speaking with them on the phone while they had my file opened they could add it in.
no.

Saskatoon’s finest…
The crooks and the cops
No money to be made helping you out . Don’t worry they can give you a speeding ticket or cell phone ticket tomorrow while you are on your way to work ! City police make in excess of 100K per year and are all worthless.
Tell them that you have evidence that the car thieves are unvaxed or disrespected your pronouns.
Tell them someone called you a paki, but you’re really bangladeshi and it hurt your feelings and you want retribution.
Tell them there was a truck horn in it that has been stolen and might be used to disturb Justin Trudeau: instant Canada-wide manhunt.
The cops are in on it. You heard it here first. Poilievre cannot save you.
The future of Canada is … South Africa.
Police have become ceremonial uniforms … just milling about whilst they wait to collect their spiked pensions … at age 45. No respect anymore. Not since their UNIONS made sure the dangerous jobs were eliminated.
Try not paying your taxes and they’ll kick your door in. Or say something disparaging about the alphabet crowd, and they’ll kick your door in. Having a private vehicle in modern canuckistan means you are privileged and not worthy of assistance. Shithole.
This isn’t new, almost 16 years ago, my truck was parked with about 20 other vehicles inside a fenced in parking lot, on railway property, with a security guard, and they broke into my truck via the $800 sliding glass window. The security guard was useless, the railway police told me to call them back when I had a local police report, and then local cops told me to call back to make a report after 9 AM when the office opens…
Despite that I could see a pair of cops getting donuts no more than 150 feet away.
License plate theft is almost as common as vehicle theft. Two months ago someone stole the plates off my son’s brand new car while it was parked in the driveway. Same experience. No actual contact with a cop. He had to fill out a form on line. Cars are broken into and cars are stolen nightly. Not a cop in sight. Forget Neighbourhood Watch we need Neighbourhood Guardian Angels doing foot patrols at night. That would certainly get the attention of the police and the politicians.
“…Neighbourhood Guardian Angels doing foot patrols at night.”
Offhand, I can’t think of a faster way to get arrested than joining something like that. They’d be on you like white on rice.
Ask Curtis Silwa, I’m sure he’d have something to say on the matter.
The courts are a bigger problem than the cops.
Federal Mp’s are not being encouraged enough. Try focusing attention on them.
Today’s elites don’t seem to understand that police exist not primarily to stop or solve crimes, but to give the citizenry the feeling that if someone does commit a crime there are people charged with dealing with them.
When the citizenry loses that feeling (and we are rushing headlong towards that) the citizenry will feel instead that they have to handle their problems themselves.
Back in the 90’s my truck got stolen overnight downtown Calgary. I called the cops to report it.
Weeks later i got a call from impound, its here come and pay for it or it goes to auction.
Back story, the thieves dumped the truck that same night in Forest Lawn, joyriders maybe. It sat in front of someone’s place for iver a week, they called parking authority, they came and tagged it, 72 hrs later it got towed to impound.
The victim (me) paid towing charge to impound, impound fee for “storage”, towing to nearest garage, as it wouldn’t start.
Wrote to Mayor, police chief about non-communication between vehicle theft, parking athority and impound. All useless.
Who made those laws. Who voted for the people who made those laws? How many politicians are lawyers?
IMPOUND Is virtual RANSOM $$$
My 06 duramax was ripped off from Calgary Airport.
Got call to pick it up – went there, had to pay ~ 700 CAD just to see it…went and had a look – NOT my Truck..”but the vin #’s match” – told em I don’t give rats ASS – THAT is not my truck. 6 hrs dickin around with these A-Holes at impound to get my $$ back – Finally called Calgary Police, officer comes down, I show him numerous pics – he goes in, has a look – comes bk and tells impound – refund the $$.
2 weeks later get a call from Special Investigations, they found a vin on the frame.
So…What did this low life do..??
They took the Cab off, the Box off and replaced both with a junker. Took the Door skins of MY truck, took the Dash of MY truck and installed on the junker.
I Ended up taking it to Western Truck Parts – opened up the hood and was floored to see My LBZ engine, FASS Lift pump, EGR Delete, FS-2500 Oil By pass all sitting there along with a pair of Odyssey Extreme 12V Batteries ($579 ea)…. I took all the addons + Batts and got 5K for the the rest.
SO WTF was that all about..?? the rockers were on there way out, truck had 629,500 kms on it, had a fancy steel bumper & A 20″ rigid light bar. But still – simply can not wrap my head around this whatsoever. The value was in the drive train and Allison Trans…plus the addons.
Am convinced those that provide so called security at the Airport are 100% in cahoots with the thieves.
And as for Vehicle Thieves..??
They should be treated in a manner identical to what we did in the 1800’s
TALL horse, Hemp rope around their neck attached to A tall tree ….
…and SLAP on the horses arse end..!!
Adios MOFO..!!
I used to work at the same airport!
We loaned our old decrepit Dodge Caravan parts van to some itinerant pilots, so they could go down to the mall and waste some time before their scheduled flight back home. Got a call a couple hours later that they couldn’t find the van! They searched and searched and it wasn’t anywhere in the lot, so we had to go and pick them up and bring them back to the airport. Filed a police report and forgot about it. A couple of days later, the cops called us and said they had found it and if we came and got it, it wouldn’t go to the impound yard. The police station is just at the bottom of the hill from the airport. We went and picked it up and it was FULL of luggage! We asked the police if they needed it for evidence or anything and was basically told, “Your van, your problem!”
So we brought the van back to the hangar and started going through all the luggage searching for names we could use to contact the owners. The luggage had passports, cash, electronics and other valuables inside. We managed to get it all back to the respective owners, who were overjoyed at its safe return.
Turned out, it was a Native couple that had stolen the van and gone to the airport to steal people’s luggage that was coming off the belts, before the passengers got there, or was in a holding area, etc.
Police found our van, but didn’t care one whit about the contents. Thankfully our crew did and returned every piece we found, along with the contents, untouched. Apparently they got busted before they could do anything else with it..
My truck was stolen in early December (about 20 years ago). When it was found, still running, on the other side of Saskatoon 10 hours later, the Police told me they can’t lift prints in the winter. 6 months later, it was broken into, over $300 in assorted property stolen. Then, some new excuse about not being able to lift prints.
in case anybody missed it my cop story in 1 paragraph l got laughed at 1st time l ever attempted to report a theft and 2 months later kicked by a drunk at the VIA Rail station on my way home from a church meeting (that must be it) and blamed for the whole thing. over the course of a mere 3 1/2 years starting about a year later a total of 7 of these liars bullies and fingerpointers, plus 3 fambly membuhs of 1 of them were all dead. nowhere else, anywhere in Canada an area of 1,000,000 population, that many, that fast, since Confederation. but it happened here right after the WORST insult and betrayal of my life. l concluded it was the ‘last straw’ for Karma (who gave them a whole year to respond to my demand for an apology l have YET to get) who then proceeded to do what she specializes in and applied the most severe punishment in her tool box.
having then concluded that Karma is real and does work, l then tapped out a 25 page document chronicling similar courses of events and concluded she’s been here with me since day one.
I don’t know about you Westerners and the cop situation there but if it’s as bad as our OPP who in my opinion are the laziest bunch of MF’ers on planet Earth you have my sympathy.
I had my truck stolen by the scumbags that ran my condo association in Arizona. They had it towed away right out of my parking spot that I paid for, and sold at auction. All without communication, all kinda/sorta “legal” if you squint real hard. Sheriff’s department was part of the loop.
I looked into it, found out what had happened and contacted an attorney. He very broadly hinted that I did not want to pull on that thread, as I would never get my truck back nor ever see a dime of compensation, but I might attract “attention.”
Upon further investigation it develops that condo associations stealing cars on flimsy pretexts and selling them is a multi-million-dollar business in Arizona. This is why private car storage sites around Phoenix are so popular. If snowbirds leave their old winter beaters at their condo, they’ll be gone next year. Didn’t use to be that way, but it sure is now.
Probably in Toronto as well, I would assume given the number of condos etc.
Remember friends, leave your key fob by the front door.
You can’t deincarcerate if you keep looking to incarcerate.
I really think that the police are, first and foremost, only there to serve their own. Then they’ll come on side for whomever is the political types protected class du jour. If you’re a white guy named Frank Smith, good luck.
Anyway, I found a live 7mm Rem Mag round in a local park. Thinking I’m doing the right thing for the greater community good, I headed down to the local constabulary to see if they had an amnesty box. After waiting in line for over 20 minutes, I figured my time was more valuable. Left the cop shop and chucked the round in the river.
They can suck it.
Surprised they didn’t charge you for possessing a dangerous thing in a place.
Sounds like the old story of the guy who tries to turn in a bag of drugs he found getting charged with possession.
Similar thing happened to me. My car was broken into, drivers side window smashed a bunch of blood on the interior. A young couple in our building were caught going down the corridor to the parkade by our security cameras at nearly 4AM, and one of the two had lacerations on his arm following my break in. The police refused to take a blood sample of collect finger prints, and I was told that as the individual was a minor they would not be proceeding with charges and gave me a victim impact statement that I could fill out though if it would make me feel better. Leaving the parkade the day after the incident, the waste of skin was sitting on the retaining wall outside my building, and smiled and gave me the finger as I drove past. I’ve come to accept that the police only exist as revenue collectors, if you want justice sadly a person needs to make it happen themselves. And to think I used to be naive enough to support the bullshit “blueline.”
Multiple times over the last 30 years I’ve had fuel tax stickers scraped off of my big truck (pre IFTA and post)(a stolen HUT sticker(NY) is a party…not) get up in the morning , do the pre trip….ah crap ..someone swiped one of them. Waste hours phoning it in , get a po po report , them carry on with my day only to get screwed around with at every weigh station and or the odd Barney Fife looking for an easy ticket…thansk pal..just so you could gypsy and run on my fuel tax dime.For some reason , nobody ever touched a hazmat permit though . Or the jack wagon that steals fuel ,straps, chains and binders(securing the load…quebec) , tarps or even the dust caps off of the wet kit fittings . The worst experience was quebec(qpp)…if you dont speak french , you can pound sand…rcmp and opp aren’t any better
What ever you do don’t go to the police station to report a crime or help in an investigation.
