In a 2021 B.C. Supreme Court ruling, Justice Douglas Thompson rebuked the RCMP for the use of exclusion zones to control the movement of journalists, calling the tactic “unlawful.”

But at a police board meeting Thursday, the board decided to close the complaint after hearing from VPD Supt. Don Chapman. Chapman told the board that while the VPD had closed the street for one block between Columbia and Main on the morning of April 5, that did not constitute an exclusion zone.

Lol, Jesus Christ. Is this guy the head of the Ministry of Truth?
