G20 - CBC The Fifth Estate 'You Should've Stayed at Home'

This video shows some decent footage, but fails to address 2 major issues behind police behavior at the G20.

The chief of police lied when he said that the police had been granted emergency powers of arrest. Why did the 5th Estate fail to mention this when they were interviewing him? He should be fired and jailed for it, not let off the hook.

There is a mountain of evidence that police were posing as black bloc and causing the damage that the police later used to justify the largest mass arrest in Canadian history.

Thanks for another wash and spin, 5th Estate. We just love it when our tax dollars are used to produce propaganda...

I haven't watched it yet. At least Charles Adler and the
rest of Tory Cheerleaders employed by the Chorus Radio
Network can't complain about the CBC bending over
backwards to placate radical elements of Canadian society
this time around.
