Tim Best back in court on Tuesday, March 9

Restaurateur Tim Best, husband of mayor Anne Marie DeCicco-Best, will be back in court on Tuesday, March 9, to set a trial-by-jury date.

Best faces several charges related to impaired driving, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and leaving the scene of an accident causing bodily harm, stemming from two driving incidents on January 31, 2009.

Chapman's Voice of London® is a closed shop

Jim Chapman's The Voice of London won't let Londoners comment on the website ("comments closed"). Why is that? What is he afraid of? Londoners having a voice of their own?

Today on Chapman's morning radio show on Radio 98, he railed against online voting because it would make it too easy for uninformed people to vote.

Say what?

THE CHAPMAN NANNY STATE: On one hand Jimmy complains about the "nanny state" and on the other hand he suggests that voters are too stupid or irresponsible to vote online.

Or perhaps Happy McChappy® just wants people to vote the way he tells them to. That's the ticket. Democracy-in-action Jim Chapman-style!

Open the doors and windows Jimmy and let some fresh March air waft up your nostrils.

Online voting will be the norm across Canada within a decade and one day people will marvel at the thought of paper ballots in a polling booth, just as people today view snail mail and horse-drawn buggies with a sense of wonderment.

LONDON, ONTARIO, POLICE BEAT

Londoner Shaun Heskett, 33, finally arrested after high-speed chase and use of a spike belt
ON SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 2010, at 2 pm an off-duty OPP officer observed a suspicious man exit a vehicle in a parking lot on Dundas Street East near Wavell and contacted the London Police.

The man left in the vehicle and was observed by a London Police officer at Dundas Street East approaching Clarke Road.

The driver failed to stop for police and a pursuit was initiated then discontinued shortly thereafter.

The vehicle proceeded to the area of Heritage Road near Plover Road where a spike belt was deployed successfully puncturing one of the tires. The suspect vehicle did not stop and continued driving.

When the vehicle was travelling southbound on Highbury Avenue, just north of Medway Road, the suspect intentionally swerved into the oncoming lane at an Ontario Provincial Police officer standing outside of a marked Police cruiser.

The suspect proceeded back into the City of London and at 2:58 pm the suspect was observed by an officer exiting the vehicle, fleeing on foot, in the area of Cheapside Avenue near Sandford Street in northeast London.

Police arrested the suspect after he was found hiding in a shed on Sandford Street and resisted arrest.

The vehicle was reported stolen on January 21 2010 from a parking lot on Falcon Street and a licence plate found on the stolen vehicle was reported stolen from a vehicle on December 20 2009 from a Southdale Road residence driveway.

Shaun Heskett, 33 years old of London, is charged with two counts of possession of stolen property, disqualified operation of a motor vehicle, failing to stop for police, resisting arrest and the dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.

Tim Best in court March 9th

Authored by: Protestant on Tuesday, March 09 2010 @ 08:25 AM EST

It could be just a coincidence, or it could be that the courts are deliberately using this date in history to record the anti-civilized behavior of the husbands of powerful women.

ORANGEVILLE, Ont. — Former Alberta Conservative MP Rahim Jaffer is due in an Ontario court today to face a cocaine possession and drunk driving charge.

His lawyer Howard Rubel says that at Jaffer’s last appearance the court was told the case would be put over to today for a resolution.

Rubel would not say what type of resolution has been reached.

Jaffer, who is married to federal Tory cabinet minister Helena Guergis, was charged in the village of Palgrave, north of Toronto, in September.

Jaffer, 37, was MP for the riding of Edmonton-Strathcona from 1997 until he was defeated in the 2008 election.
