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

CUT(V) has been a target of the SSPVM ever since the 2012 student strike. They were there, covering the protests, every. single. night. Right at the front when people were getting peppered, gassed, and beaten. Themselves getting harassed, attacked, beaten multiple times.

And they were doing it live (some of the first people to do such live streams). Their courageous and tireless coverage was a big part of why the protests evolved into a broader popular uprising. People saw live, every single night, what those students were going through. The SSPVM could never forgive them and still hold a grudge to this day.

All this to say, I’m not surprised in the least by this fascist behaviour.
