He is referring to France. Not the wrong country.

Tester wrote that he spent time in France and learned by looking at the map that he neighboured a ZUS. You didn't read his post properly before inferring he was talking about Canada.

In any event the stand-off with police is relatively new and Tester might not have experienced it. The phenomenon of aread too unsafe for policing is possibly emerging in other countries too. I am aware of parts of London that the local police have pretty much given up on, although I believe it is not too late to pick up the slack in those areas.
