I would not be surprised if this misguided attempt to reduce #insults & other #VerbalAbuse directed at #Montreal police officers with threats of heavy fines results in even more insults directed at #SPVM officers by people who disagree with this problematic bylaw.

#MySPVM #MonSPVM #PolMTL #CMMTL

This kind of shield slamming?

I must confess to having insulted a couple of #SPVM #RiotCops who assaulted me while I was documenting this year's #MayDay Workers' Rights protest by #namecalling them "assholes".

FYI I have asked multiple questions about #SPVM #PoliceBrutality targeting #photographers & #journalists documenting #protests during the #PublicQuestionsPeriod of #Montreal city council meetings since March 2025.

Not only does the #SPVM have a long history of tolerating the #PoliceMisconduct of its officers, but so do many #Montreal politicians. . .

#ValPlante & #ProjetMontreal did nothing to prevent #PoliceBrutality against #journalists.

Depuis mars 2025, j'ai posé de nombreuses questions concernant la #BrutalitéPolicière des #policiers du #SPVM visant les #photographes & les #journalistes lors de la période de questions du public aux séances du conseil municipal de #Montréal.

It's not really "shocking" (as in "surprising") in that #abusive #SPVM #RiotCops have been targeting William Wilson & other photographers &or videographers for various forms of #PoliceBrutality for at least 2 years now.

It's to be expected from #MySPVM.

The #SPVM has been pepper spraying, beating, & otherwise brutalizing & intimidating photographers & videographers documenting #protests for over a decade.

The attack on William Wilson is not new, nor an "isolated incident".

I must confess to having "insulted" a couple of belligerent #SPVM #RiotCops who assaulted me while I was documenting the #MayDay Workers' Rights protest on video.

To think #Montréal citizens can be fined for calling #abusive cops "assholes".

"Of course no one deserves to be berated on the job, but that concern is a red herring disguising blatant overreach."

Actually, the jackass #SPVM #RiotCops who assault photographers & videographers documenting protests deserve to be berated on the job.

I saw that, but I'm speaking specifically of a joint statement by photographers-videographers & #journalists who have actually been subjected to #PoliceBrutality by #SPVM cops while documenting protests.

I've been assaulted twice since March 15th, 2025.

I've been #MakingSomeNoise about #SPVM cops targeting photographers & #journalists for #PepperSpray, assaults & other #PoliceBrutality since the #PublicQuestionsPeriod of the March 2025 #Montreal city council meeting.

#ProjetMontréal refused to do anything to prevent it.

"Ce dossier fait l’objet d’un suivi et a été transmis à la Division des normes professionnelles (DNP) pour analyse."

Qui aurait su que le SPVM a une "Division des normes professionnelles"?

It depends upon what you mean by "successfully". . .

As far as I am concerned, if I ask a question during the #PublicQuestionsPeriod of a #Montreal city council meeting, & a #politician responds with #TOTALbullshit, I have been quite successful. 😉🤣😇

I've asked multiple questions about #SPVM #RiotCops targeting William Wilson & other photographers-videographers & journalists (including myself) for various forms of violence since the March 2025 #PublicQuestionsPeriod.

ALL #Montréal #politicians are aware of this #PoliceBrutality.

#PolMTL #CMMTL

The September #Montreal city council meeting concluded after 11pm last night.

The next opportunity to ask questions about #SPVM #PoliceBrutality during the #PublicQuestionsPeriod will be on October 19th.

I've been #AskingQuestions for over a decade.

La Ligue des droits et libertés, the Canadian Civil Liberties Association & others warned Montréal politicians about the risks of abuse stemming from the bylaw prohibiting "insulting" Montreal city employees.
