Telus SNAFU

The tragedy of the Oak Bay murders/suicide can be studied and investigated and commissioned till the cows come home, and nothing much will be learned or changed.

Buy to learn that the all-knowing, superior Telus had lost its database for the 911 system and that digital radios and cellphones for Oak Bay and Saanich were on the fritz - well, that is sickening.

We can't expect crazy people to be much more than crazy.

But we should be able to expect that emergency telephone and radio sytems are maintained in working order.
