What were the ‘hard decisions’ made by the RCMP in High River? On September 5, 2013 Staff Sgt. Ian Shardlow told Danielle Smith’s Town Hall: “What I’m suggesting to you though is that the High River members aren’t the ones that made the hard decisions, whether they’re born out to be correct or not.

None of them made the hard decisions, none of them opened your doors, kicked your doors, smashed your doors, none of them searched your homes.”
