Montebello Bush League Quebec Police posed as summit protesters and tried to Incite Violence
In a stunningly alarming news report the CBC stated :
About 1,200 protesters were in the small resort town near Ottawa as Prime Minister Stephen Harper met with U.S. President George W. Bush and Mexican President Felipe Calderon at a two-day summit to discuss issues under the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America pact.
The CBC further reported that :
Organizers of the protests at the North American leaders’ summit in Montebello, Que., say they have video that shows police disguised as masked demonstrators tried to incite violence on Monday.

The YouTube video shows Dave Coles, president of the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union, ordering three masked men back from a line of riot police.

One day later the CBC reported that :

However, the police force denied allegations its undercover officers were there on Monday to provoke the crowd and instigate violence.

What do you think ? Are these nazi like security measures interfering with the constitutional and democratic rights of Canadians to peacefully protest symptomatic of the times we are living in or merely the consequences of inviting George W. Bush over for dinner ?

This incident really enraged me. Even though there is no question that the cops were busted for it, I don’t think there will be any follow-up to the incident. By the time the next election happens, the public will have forgotten, and none of the other political parties will bring it up because they would do the same thing. Infuriating.

Considering George W. Bush is the most despicable leader (very loose use of the term “leader”) the USA has ever had AND the fact most of the worlds people hate him (including us in the USA) it is not surprising that so much protection is needed.
Associating his name with Hitler, Mussolini, or the dictators country he invaded Saddam will be his legacy.
So I would say it’s the consequence of inviting George W. Bush over for dinner ?
