State-run Via Rail admits security breached—easily

Well you don’t say. 

The state-run transportation giant called Via Rail, or more properly, the Via Rail division of the Liberal Party, has little or no security, the day after terrorists attacked another country on Osama bin Laden’s list.  This according to the state-run news media, the CBC division of the Liberal Party.

Guess I was just nuts to be worried that the liberal elites in Canada aren’t taking terrorism seriously. 

Via Rail investigating security breach

Via Rail said an investigation is underway after a CBC Radio reporter managed to board a passenger train Friday and enter its baggage area without once being checked for a ticket.

This comes a day after Canadian officials announced increased security measures on trains and subways following the bombings in Britain.

The reporter said it was easy to walk into Toronto’s Union Station with a backpack and board a train to Windsor without buying a ticket or being requested to produce one. He was also able to enter the baggage hold without being asked for identification.

Some commuters into Toronto also noticed a lack of extra security.

“I figured there would have been police officers up and down the train. It’s only been 24 hours since it’s happened,” said one rider.

Though a Via spokesperson acknowledged that the breach should not have been allowed to happen, it raised questions about how much security is possible on mass transit.

[…] Via Rail on Friday called the breach “disturbing” and said it should never have happened. An investigation has been launched, and a spokesperson said the company had taken immediate steps to ensure every passenger boarding their trains is at least asked for a ticket.

Checking train passengers for ticketsWhaaaat?  Is that constitutional? COTLER!!!!
