In 2019, Juliano Gray was violently restrained by STM inspectors in Montreal. The video sparked outrage, yet politicians like Craig Sauvé—then part of the administration—stopped short of calling it what it was: excessive use of force.

Fast forward: today, as leader of his own party, Sauvé criticizes the City’s approach to public safety and speaks freely about human rights and criminality.

This is exactly why people lose faith in politics. Too often, leaders change their stance depending on the position they hold. When in power, they stay silent to protect the administration. When in opposition, they suddenly “find their voice.”

Principles shouldn’t depend on political convenience. If politicians can’t speak truth when it matters most, how can Montrealers trust them when they say they’re ready to lead?

Montreal anti-racial profiling group Red Coalition said city police should apologize to Dossa.

Alain Babineau, the racial profiling and public safety director at Red Coalition and a 27-year veteran of the RCMP, said he wonders if Dossa was handcuffed because the officers see Black men as being inherently violent.

Babineau, who became a jurist after leaving the police force, said officers can detain someone if there are reasonable grounds to suspect criminal activity.

But when someone is subject to investigative detention by police, they must be allowed to leave. While police can handcuff someone who poses a threat, Babineau said, the move escalates the interaction into an arrest.

Fo Niemi, executive director of the Montreal-based civil rights organization Center for Research-Action on Race Relations agrees police should apologize. He said he hopes Dossa will file a complaint with the police ethics commissioner so an investigation can be launched.

Brice Dossa, a Black man living in Montreal, said he was "humiliated" and discriminated against after police officers handcuffed him for the theft of a car that ended up being his, and then didn't have the key to uncuff him. Montreal police say they're opening an administrative investigation.

Movement Montreal, which became a political party in 2021, would seek constitutional powers for the city from the provincial and federal government to make it a city-state with access to the taxation levers currently controlled by the higher levels of government.

On this, we completely agree with Valérie Plante “Let’s stop this massive waste. I ask Canada Post to stop distributing Publisac and to respect our rules. That’s what Montrealers want.”

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante held a press conference asking Canada Post to stop delivering Publisac circulars.
