Two Montreal-area organizations and their director are seeking more than $4.9 million in damages. The allegations have cost them $3.2 million, including lost government funding.
I could be wrong, but the nature of these secret police stations was well documented and known about in intelligence circles, the news broke the story before the RCMP announced their investigation, and generally, being investigated for a crime is not grounds for defamation. Is it defamation of character when a public figure is being publicly investigated for an alleged crime? They’re complaining about lost funding, it’s like, my brother in Christ, do you expect the federal government to keep giving you money to operate a suspected illegal Chinese police station? Must be cancel culture at it again!
