Maybe they could table law where if you bash a reporters head in you go to jail and lose your job and the officers on the scene that did not stop it from happening get suspended WITHOUT pay.

What a fucking joke

“Protect them from verbal abuse or harassment”

How about you be thankful that hurtful words and insults is all you’re getting so far?

Start fining people for telling you to eat shit and you’ll see how fast they’ll shift to actions that will be conveying the same message

Montreal city council is expected to vote this week on a proposed bylaw that would allow members of the public to be fined for insulting police officers and other municipal workers.

Behaviours like this have a cause. The solution isn't to fine people, unless you want to escalate.

Couldn’t you just aggressively compliment someone? Do they have sarcasm in Canada? Then they can start evaluating intent, maybe sone kind of thought police? Grammaton Clerics?

Fuck the Police. All Cops Are Bastards.

This will be abuse by the SPVM. It comes from a good place and they will make a parody of it
