You might say it鈥檚 our interpretation of 性视界传媒鈥檚 policing transition mess, now in its fifth year, that it has inflicted and continues to inflict severe intellectual and gastronomic indigestion on 性视界传媒 residents.
Kind of like sea-sickness.
Consider it more a statement of fact, although a bit purple with the imagery.
At this time of writing, all hands on deck were expecting Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth to bring his decision to port sometime this week as to, once and for all, who will police 性视界传媒 into the foreseeable future 鈥� the 性视界传媒 RCMP or the 性视界传媒 Police Service.

As we鈥檝e waited, a steady flow of acrimony, 鈥榮hocking developments,鈥� calls for resignations, insults, confusion, bombast, rude and childish behaviour, and sophistry have washed up on 性视界传媒鈥檚 shores, not to mention the privilege of collectively paying roughly $8 million in taxes per month to maintain two police forces. Arrrr, pirates say.
This perfect storm will some day subside. But for how long the upset will last, though, is anyone鈥檚 guess.
Meanwhile, as everyone stares into the deep, a new beast has crawled up from the abyss and into 性视界传媒鈥檚 political lexicon: Interpretation.
性视界传媒 Mayor Brenda Locke recently invoked the term to anchor her perhaps pollyanna position that a boatload of mayors approved a motion to support 性视界传媒 in its bid to keep the RCMP here despite the author of the motion, Delta Mayor George Harvie, indicating otherwise.
Despite the sea of disagreement 性视界传媒鈥檚 policing transition is, surely we can all agree that politicians must not rely on 鈥渋nterpretation鈥� in an effort to ride out a storm.
It鈥檚 just not seaworthy policy for public governance.
