Judge finds RCMP breached Charter rights during arrests at Wet'suwet'en pipeline blockade

[shockedcanadian]

This is standard in Canadian policing. They find the Charter of Rights and Freedoms as being an affront to their authority.

Ontario Provincial Police, Durham Regional Police, Toronto Police Services, Peel Region Police, all have the same complex and disregard for the sacrifice of men much better than them or myself. All while spreading hatred against the United States as they find your freedoms, transparency and accountability even more disgusting.

Be careful of who you assist lest you become them yourself...

A B.C. judge says police breached the Charter rights of three people arrested for blocking work on the Coastal GasLink (CGL) pipeline, and they will receive a reduction in their sentences because of that.

The abuse of process application was brought by Sleydo' (Molly Wickham), a wing chief of the Gidimt'en Clan of the Wet'suwet'en Nation, Shaylynn Sampson, a Gitxsan woman with Wet'suwet'en family ties and Corey Jocko, who is Kanien'kehá:ka (Mohawk) from Akwesasne.

Justice Michael Tammen found the three guilty last year of criminal contempt of court for breaking an injunction against blocking work on the pipeline back in November 2021.


Tammen read his decision in B.C. Supreme Court in Smithers Tuesday after more than a year of court proceedings.

The abuse of process application alleged RCMP used excessive force while arresting the accused in November 2021, and that the group was treated unfairly while in custody. It asked the judge to stay the criminal contempt of court charges or to reduce their sentences based on their treatment by police.

Tammen said it would be inappropriate to stay court proceedings, but found that some of the accused's Section 7 rights— life, liberty, and security of person — were breached during the police raid.

It appears that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms was signed in 1982 to bribe Quebec into not seceding from the rest of Canada. Was it worthwhile?

The fact is that our Charter of Rights is a paperweight. Canada is not your ally, plain and simple. We will talk a great game and virtue signal, but at the end of the day, we are an extension of the old monarchy. Serfs are to be suppressed and exploited, not embraced and allowed to contribute.

Hence Americas global technical giants and Canadas domestically protected oligopolies.

Are there any separatist movements in Western Canada? I don't understand why they put up with the Eastern shitheads.

You think that if they separated it would matter? lol.

Do a bit more reading on Canadian history, from coast to coast the country was never designed for maximum freedom or innovation required in the competitive knowledge economy.

If Elon Musk were living here he'd be working in a warehouse somewhere and some cops son would be his manager.

So Western Canadians are shitheads like the rest of your 43 year old nation?

There are a few more libertarians there I agree and there are more people who live by the "code".

Ultimately though, you aren't going to find courage or principle in this country outside of our military. It's an EXTREMELY small group.

The Creepy Ones tell the average Canadian what to do and they will snitch, stab in the back, and smirk with pleasure as they help the state destroy a fellow citizen. It's right out of the East German playbook. Cowardly and morbid.

I'd love to say we had people of character here, I know they exist, but they are in such small numbers that it's rare to find them. Over time, that gene just recedes or is prevented from spreading in some indirect form (such as career interference, character assassinations etc).
