Revealed! Secret Tactics of the Quebec Police AND Spies in our midst!

Two Articles Allegedly Documenting Police Strategies. These documents were posted on the web following the Friday April 19, 2001 break-in of a police van in Quebec City. The police response was essentially- don't believe everything you read. They could have been altered to suit the purposes of those who would mislead us! Whoever they may be. At any rate, the articles deal with alleged SQ strategies towards controlling the protesters and suggest the tactical use of teargas combined with wind direction- a strategy they did employ. They may serve to explain WHY corporate media became a special target of the protesters. As well as revealing spies operating within anti-FTAA organizations, it is believed that the police were also tipped off by a TV station.
