This isn't very surprising with Montreal police, who are basically Canada's LAPD, but I still don't understand their motive here.

I hate to say it, because it sounds like conspiracy-mongering, but the reason is "Money".

A lot of people want the narrative to go a certain way, and those people have a lot of money and thusly a lot of influence. That they're losing control of the narrative has caused them a kind of narcissistic injury, and they're lashing out.

Could you elaborate a bit on who you think is doing this and why?

Owners of Scotiabank here specifically but really most of owners of large enterprises though

Looks like scotiabnak is materially invested but I bet most owners just shill whatever the geopolitics dictates as they want want to piss off their hosts. parasites know better.
