Roy Green - Sat Jan 17 - The High River Flood

Listener Richard from High River, Alberta, heard last Sunday's segment with an Alberta police officer speaking about the war on police and the piece I Was A Police Officer. Richard emailed about the High River experience with RCMP breaking into homes following the 2013 massive flood, supposedly searching for flood victims where none existed, but confiscating firearms. This police action still has many High River residents and Canadians outside the community angry.

Guests:
- Richard. High River resident and listener
- Lorne Gunter. Sun News contributor who has written extensively about the High River situation.
- RCMP Sgt. Patricia Neely from High River following the flood. The RCMP gave this show the first detailed interview from High River at the time of the controversial search. We play back some of the interview with Sgt. Patricia Neely. Police had requested my questions before they would agree to speak with me. Sgt. Neely says insisted police were "not looking for guns" and only "secured" guns if they were left "out in the open". She insisted time and again it was a "search and rescue and our focus was on the search for people."
