‘Why are the RCMP not doing anything? Arrest them. Seize their vehicles. They are economic terrorists,’ one complaint says of the protesters
There were complaints that Mounties were not doing enough at the Canada-U. S. border-crossing in Coutts, Alta., when protests erupted over COVID-19 pandemic policies.
The commission received 131 complaints about the protests from January to the end of February 2022, it said in an email. Only seven the of the complaints were processed, two of which were later terminated. It was concluded one didn’t involve the Mounties and the other was “third party,” meaning the incident did not involve the person making the complaint.
Many complaints were about a YouTube video near the Coutts highway protest in which a person alleges RCMP caused damage to excavators. “Is the state engaging in sabotage the kind of country you want for your fellow citizens? For your children and grandchildren?” a complaint said.“If you can’t find a tow truck company, buy three or four yourselves and pay them off with the money from the seized rigs,” a complaint from Feb. 8, 2022 said.
One complaint, which provided a false phone number and post office box, was about an RCMP officer not wearing a mask and coming close to a person. It was later learned the Mountie in question didn’t work at the area at the time.
