Dziekanski Incident Indicates A 'soul-Less' Bureaucracy

"For an average Pole, it is absolutely incomprehensible. It also points to this very strict, formal and almost inhumane treatment of foreigners and travellers coming to Canada by Canadian government," Jaroszynski said. "You have two faces to Canada -- a country well-organized, with welfare benefits, rich, open to foreigners, multicultural and taking care of social and cultural development. But on the other hand you have the face of the soul-less, rigid and almost irrational working of the system." ... On the case of Robert Dziekanski, a Polish immigrant who died at Vancouver airport after he was hit by an RCMP Taser gun, Jaroszynski said Poland is awaiting results of an investigation and hopes "larger consequences" stem from the tragedy. "This strengthened, and enhanced the vision or image of Canada as a very bureaucratic, slow machinery acting almost with no human face," he said. "This was a shock to the Polish public as well as the Canadian public." http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2008/01/27/4796445-sun.html
