@robinedgar59.bsky.socialThis kind of shield slamming?

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialI 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".

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialThe NDG Community Council held a Meet The Candidates event for the #Quebec provincial election last night.
I decided to ask a question about what they will do to mitigate #ClimateChange and prevent it.
@robinedgar59.bsky.socialIt'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.
@robinedgar59.bsky.social@robinedgar59.bsky.social"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"?

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialIt 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. 😉🤣😇
@robinedgar59.bsky.socialThe 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.
@robinedgar59.bsky.socialLa 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.

@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.

What a terrible framing of this issue. "Why won't anyone pay for our small overpriced condos!?" Do better @mtlgazette.bsky.social #mtlpoli
@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.socialMost ironically, this most recent SPVM #PoliceRepression of peaceful public protest & #PoliceBrutality towards not only #protesters, but #journalists documenting a protest, occurred while the #SPVM was presenting its annual report for 2025.

@robinedgar59.bsky.socialAre you suggesting that #Montrealers who choose to exercise their "Charter guaranteed" right to engage in peaceful public protest in the streets of #Montreal should just capitulate to #SPVM #PoliceBrutality by #protesting in other ways?
