RCMP watchdog investigates force how B.C. unit handles resource project protests
A review is underway to look at how RCMP interact with protesters during resource protests like this one at Fairy Creek.
Civilian Review and Complaints Commission chairperson Michelaine Lahaie says in a statement issued today that the investigation will look into the activities and operations of the RCMP “E” Division Community-Industry Response Group. Protesters against old-growth logging on Vancouver Island allege police have used excessive force, such as pepper-spraying people’s faces at close range, as well as shoving and throwing them to the ground.
