It makes me feel a little bit nauseous when I think of the many hours I myself have spent, passed out cold in a travel coma, while riding on a bus. If nothing else, I hope that this tragedy convinces travellers to be more mindful of their surroundings at all times. Oftentimes, the “safest” places can be the most dangerous. Just look at all the innocent children who have died in their own homes, at the hands of the very people who are supposed to love and protect them.

With respect to Li’s “sentencing,” this is just another example of the Canadian Justice system being totally and completely f*cked. Do the crime, do the time — unless you’re Canadian!

* measures which, from what I can tell, do more to inconvenience travellers than to prevent terrorism
