My latest piece. Unhoused Indigenous people and intervention workers in the Plateau say police violence is something they witness or experience on a regular basis. Ppl are being cuffed and dropped off a block away, spoken to in FR when they dont speak it, and generally feel “belittled” by SPVM.

Montreal’s night life has always been for outcasts and weirdos but it’s being suffocated by gentrification and goddamn noise complaints. Can the city’s new nightlife policy help us freaks fight back????

This is the first piece I've published in months, and it was an intense piece to write. It's a long, emotional read, and I hope that those who participated feel heard by this piece.
