@robinedgar59.bsky.socialI have already asked #Montreal politicians multiple questions about SPVM #RiotCops assaulting William Wilson & other photographers-videographers & #journalists etc., starting in March 2025, but more people need to put pressure on #politicians to denounce & end #SPVM #PoliceBrutality.
@robinedgar59.bsky.socialThis is just the most recent SPVM #PoliceBrutality targeting #photographers, videographers, & #journalists documenting #protests.
SPVM #RiotCops have been assaulting William Wilson & other #Montreal photographers-videographers for about 2 years now.
@robinedgar59.bsky.socialThere's a #Montréal city council meeting tonight. You & other people who were subjected to #SPVM #PoliceBrutality last Wednesday (while the SPVM was presenting its annual report for 2025 to the #PublicSecurityCommission) should ask questions during tonight's #PublicQuestionsPeriod.
@devinashtonb.bsky.social@robinedgar59.bsky.socialDuring their 8 years in power, did you ever see former #Montréal mayor Valérie Plante, or #ProjetMontréal as a political party, tell the #SPVM to "stand down" or use other tactics to de-escalate?
Or did they rather typically do nothing?
@elisabethgreene.bsky.social@ensemblemontreal.bsky.social qui fait des consultations publiques pour paraitre démocratique et qui twiste les résultats pour faire comme ils avaient prévu dès le départ (annuler le projet), allant complètement à l'encontre des voix des citoyennes.
C'est petit.

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialMayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada & her Ensemble Montréal administration have done more to address UNprofessional & #abusive behaviour by problematic #SPVM cops in its first 10 months than #ProjetMontréal did in its 8 years in power.
Let's see how things look in 2027.
@cultmtl.com“Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada could have easily told the SPVM to stand down or use other tactics to de-escalate. Instead, and rather typically, she did nothing.
“Why would she? She’s also clearly putting profit over people.”

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialQuite ironically, that most recent SPVM #PoliceRepression of a protest, & #PoliceBrutality towards not only #protesters, but #journalists documenting a #protest, occurred while the #SPVM was belatedly presenting its annual report for 2025.

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialI'm not a professional #journalist, but I am something of a "police watchdog".
I noticed an increase in #SPVM #PoliceBrutality targeting photographers & videographers, including William Wilson, in the fall of 2024.
Since then, I've been assaulted by SPVM #RiotCops twice.
@robinedgar59.bsky.socialICYMI there was just as much #SPVM #PoliceRepression of peaceful public protests, & #PoliceBrutality towards not only #protesters, but #journalists documenting protests, during the 8 years "l'homme de la shituation" aka #ValériePlante & #ProjetMontréal were in power.
