Hey Gnu, welcome to the world :) I don't mean that badly, but the police have been an umm 'issue' for people concerned about them overstepping their role in the UK for many years now. To very broadly paraphrase: they came for the miners, they came for the hippies, they came for the man with one leg who was peacefully protesting, they're gonna come for you too.. In reference to Canadian police, you really aughta check out the stuff about 'agent provocateurs' or in other words: undercover police pretending to be anarchists, while holding rocks (wonder what they planned to do with rocks in their hands).
