That would be the University of Toronto.
So there you have it folks! The police catch the guy red-handed with my bike that was stolen from me and reported to the police, and my bike is trashed, and they let the guy go, even though he won't reveal who he bought the bike from. Thieves have it made. But we taxpayers don't!!!
I see absolutely no injustice reported here. All of what the police has said is true.
