Demirjian claims the real reason for his ouster was "unsubstantiated rumors" that he ate cookies around the department in a sloppy manner, and that he had a flatulence problem.

In November, a court in Vancouver, British Columbia, awarded David Mattattall $632 in medical costs and other expenses stemming from a car accident in 1991. Mattattall had sued his mother for closing her car door on the paw of Mattattall's cat Daisy. The court's decision means that Mattattall's mother will lose her 40 percent safe-driving discount.
