Watch this now on LAW BREAK! And read the book! I learnt so much from it and I’m not even a police officer. But even as a defence lawyer, I found some important and valuable information to learn!

Hank’s book generated a lot of media attention because of what he wrote about in chapter 26 of the book. He talks about the anti black racism and antisemitism within the TPS. This has prompted investigation of an already troubled TPS following the Project South scandal

A police report has been filed after a stranger threw hot coffee at my videographer. This occurred at Robinson Street & Trafalgar Road. Please DM if you can help identify the suspect. 📸 May 3, 2026 #Oakville #ProtestMania

Local resident crosses the street to confront a pro-Palestine protester by screaming obscenities. Others quickly join in, and the scene erupts into shouting. The resident then throws hot coffee at my videographer before fleeing. 📸 May 3, 2026 #Oakville #ProtestMania

A star turn here by Boy George. Not much else to say. Fantastic call-out of a cowardly audience, also.

💥 Time will tell, but I predict we’re witnessing the birth of a NEW TERM in our public discourse: the “Hank Idsinga Effect”, or simply “the Hank Effect.” Coined by former Toronto police officer Ross McLean, this phrase reflects how principled dissent can drive better governance. Buckle up, folks. 🚀🗣️ #HankIdsingaEffect #PublicDiscourse #ChangeIsComing @McLeanChronicle @hank_idsinga

@mitchbabineau If you had told me in 1989 that I would be in charge of the Homicide Squad one day, I never would have believed it. If you had told me when I retired that I would be a #1 bestseller - same !

@McLeanChronicle My two favourite quotes from my 33 yrs on the Job: The TPS is a 20th century organization with a 19th century management style (John Sewell I think), and The TPS is a million dollar (now billion dollar!) organization that runs on “grudges”. Give ‘em hell, @hank_idsinga

The “Hank Idsinga Effect” may already be happening. After former homicide detective Hank Idsinga spoke out, the Toronto Police Service Board and Chief now say they’re taking it “seriously.” I worked for Toronto Police, am well connected, I speak Cop. In this video, I explain what police outsiders may miss, and why this story matters far beyond Toronto. Watch, share, and follow my YouTube Link in X BIO

The support across party lines is what's most notable about Brad Bradford's campaign. It's probably the biggest tent that I've ever seen in Canadian politics. It reflects a desire for change on bread and butter issues by most people who call Toronto home. @BradMBradford
Warren Kinsella@kinsellawarren

NB: On the first weekend of the campaign, @BradMBradford's getting endorsements from Liberals – MPs, MPPs – and he's got lots of volunteers and supporters who've voted/supported Tories, Greens, CPC. Olivia Chow, meanwhile, has been campaigning on the taxpayer dime. #topoli

Thoughtful, serious, and grounded in reality — @BradMBradford’s vision is exactly the kind of leadership our city needs right now.
NEWSTALK 1010@NEWSTALK1010

"I've been watching the drift and the decline of the city. And she hasn't made up her mind yet, but I know that I am here to fight for Torontonians." @BradMBradford kicks off his City Hall campaign, telling @MooreintheAM the current mayor, "still leaves a lot to be desired."

It was just pointed out to me that The Hidden Hand is on the main and Canadian non-fiction bestseller lists in the Globe. Didn't catch that. Thanks, then, to everyone who has picked it up. Grateful.
