This is the second time this year that police in Canada have sought to send a journalist to jail for doing their job

    This isn’t very surprising with Montreal police, who are basically Canada’s LAPD, but I still don’t understand their motive here.

      I hate to say it, because it sounds like conspiracy-mongering, but the reason is “Money”.

      A lot of people want the narrative to go a certain way, and those people have a lot of money and thusly a lot of influence. That they’re losing control of the narrative has caused them a kind of narcissistic injury, and they’re lashing out.
