Police Inquiry 

 

 

If elected I have decided to have an inquiry of our police force to see if there is a need for improvement.

 

The police inquiry will include the G20 problems the police encountered and if there were any mistakes made.

 

I watched most of the G20 coverage on CBC and I flipped around to other networks to see what they were reporting.

 

I watched the peaceful protesters marching down University Avenue chanting and singing their protest songs like "Hey Hey Ho Ho We Want More Dough"  and so on.

 

Then there were more people in the group with hooded jackets and masks which the media identified them as anarchist group that later smashed store windows and burned Toronto Police cars and viciously attacking media vans and reporters by throwing their bricks at them as they marched by.

 

For the number of people protesting our police force did their job well, and nobody was killed.

 

Toronto allows protests and most of them are peaceful.

 

Queens Park has at least one protest a week sometimes more.

 

The protestors are crying foul because their civil rights were trampled on by our police who's motto that is painted on every police vehicle "To Serve And Protect"

 

More than 800 people got arrested including people that were not part of the protest and some reporters and shipped to a temporary holding facility east of the protest area.

 

They were stuffed into large animal cages with those plastic portable toilets with a small bench inside, set up weeks before, in an abandoned movie studio lot.

 

No food and drink for 18 to 20 hours and no contact with their lawyers.

 

This police inquiry has to happen as soon as possible so we can learn from this.

 

Torontonians need closure of this traumatic experience.

 

Toronto is a great city.
