Quebec police are refusing to answer questions from the oversight body investigating civilian deaths and serious injuries during police interventions. This is after

[Police] unions also challenged the obligation for officers to meet with ... investigators. They argued that those rules infringed on their members’ constitutional rights to stay silent and not incriminate themselves.

It's part of a national trend:

in British Columbia, police officers rarely co-operate with the Independent Investigations Office ..., while they often only partly co-operate with independent oversight bodies in other provinces.

Refusing to participate in an investigation is obvious criminality. If they did nothing wrong, they shouldn't have anything to hide. Hypocritical disgraces to this country. Too busy killing native women and prostitutes. Old habits die hard, and let's not forget how many cops sided with the "Freedom" convoy, and opposed the black lives matter movement. Pigs will be pigs. 🐖 🐷. Eternal useful idiots to despotism.

“If they did nothing wrong, they shouldn’t have anything to hide,” sounds EXACTLY what one of the cops you’re concerned about might say.

Anyone else you think doesn’t deserve the protection of the Charter?
