Journal BarbaraHudson's Journal: Another reason not to trust H.R. consultants 2
Another reason not to trust H.R. consultants - as if anyone needs one.
The lawyer representing an Orleans human resources consultant charged with attempted murder in an attack on a 101-year-old veteran says she will consider asking the court for a referral to a psychiatrist.
Police would not confirm the name of the man charged but in a news release said they had arrested a 59-year-old man on Friday and charged him with attempted murder, robbery with violence, forcible confinement, break and enter and two counts of using a credit card obtained by crime.
The arrest drew a commendation from Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Police say a man broke into the New Edinburgh apartment of Ernest CÃté, retired colonel and Second World War veteran, on Thursday morning after pretending to be a City of Ottawa employee. The man tied up CÃté, placed a plastic bag over his head and robbed him. CÃté was able to free himself and call 911.
Is this a targeted hate crime?
On Remembrance Day, Bushâ(TM)s account tweeted an angry response to a Globe and Mail reporter who noted that people had shouted "thank-you" as a group of veterans marched by.
"Thank-you? For what???" the tweet said. When someone else responded that thanks were deserved for protecting the countryâ(TM)s freedoms, Bushâ(TM)s account replied, "What nonsense you spew. What freedoms? Spell them out! You believe the propaganda like a little Nazi."
The man's name is "Côté" (Score:2)

I know, but Firefox hates me using that alt+number sequences (some of them map to annoying shortcuts instead), and I didn't think slashdot had ever gotten around to fixing their unicode support.
