Fusillade à CDN : le tireur aurait transmis un manifeste aux médias, mais pour une raison ésotérique, ceux-ci ne savent rien de ses motifs. C'est fort curieux, à moins que les médias maintiennent un embargo sur cette information à la demande des flics... dont ils sont bien sûr indépendants.

Montreal today, viewer discretion advised. If we abolish the police, who will panic and shoot innocent bystanders when there's an active shooter ambushing the cops?

Ten years ago, after the SPVM murdered Jean-Pierre Bony, residents, activists and anarchists descended on PDQ 39. All the cops fled the building. "ACAB" was scrawled on the wall, and nearly every window was broken. We know what should have happened next. mtlcounterinfo.org/rest-in-powe...

The entire night patrol unit in Montréal-Nord suspended or taken off the streets after an investigation found systematic and coordinated racist abuse. www.lapresse.ca/actualites/2...

Fascists in Belfast set fire to buildings with people inside them. People of colour left work early to stay indoors. This is being actively encouraged by the world’s richest man whose openly pro-white nationalist platform X is still used by the UK government www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

The global far right led by highly online white nationalists like Elon Musk has had its Kristallnacht moment, producing images that shock the conscience. How will the world respond?

Put heavy objects between the cars and your bodies, stuff that will damage the car if they drive into it. Makes a big difference in our experience.

Ben Morea has passed away. Known for participating in the revolutionary street gang Up Against the Wall Motherfucker, he went on to many more adventures. crimethinc.com/BenMoreaExar... This visionary eulogy recounts Ben’s visit to Exarchia—the Athenian neighborhood famed as a hotbed of anarchism.🧵

In protest of skyrocketing food prices, inflation and price gouging, autonomous groups in Montreal continue to organize collective liberation of goods from grocery stores - this time, from an automated 'high-tech' outlet.

Last night, Montreal riot police attacked thousands of Montreal Canadiens fans celebrating outside of the Bell Centre after a huge game 7 win in the playoffs. Virtually nothing has been reported in the press about the beatings.

How many Montreal riot cops does it take to protect a Cybertruck at the May Day demo? Twelve, the answer is twelve.

On International Women's Day, the new group Witches Against Power (WAP) carried out coordinated actions against ICE contractor GardaWorld, vandalizing their Montreal headquarters plus the residences of two board members.

The #SPVM terrorizing the friends of Nooran Rezayi with a series of house raids today, several months after the teenager was killed by a Longueuil cop. It was claimed that the SPVM was investigating why the cop opened fire with no warning or apparent provocation. www.lapresse.ca/actualites/j...

Is it normal, in a Canadian city, for the police to beat and tear gas hundreds of people for more than an hour, injuring six, to protect a company providing guards to concentration camps, and for it not to be in any major local or national news media the next day? Asking for a friend.

You do not need to be in Minneapolis, or LA, etc., to help in this fight. You don't even need to confront ICE/CBP themselves. The arms of this machine are everywhere.

US Troops killed all the guards at Dachau for this kind of shit.

In Los Angeles, California, tensions escalated as law enforcement officers drew their weapons on students participating in an anti-ICE march.

They're going to try to put this woman in federal prison for 50 years, and she probably knew that going in. But jury nullification is still a thing.

Shooting dozens of rounds of tear gas and using pepper spray and their batons, the SPVM violently pushed back more than a thousand people who showed up this afternoon to send a message to GardaWorld over their contracts with ICE at their offices and training center in Ville Saint-Laurent. (thread)

We've heard variations on the thesis that the best counter-recruitment moves against the far right are concrete responses to capitalist dispossession—actions that resonate with people's anger at elites. Two MTL grocery store robberies since December with redistribution of the loot fit the bill.

1. Mass media outlet interviews Robins des ruelles. 2. Robins refuse to frame their actions as charity or 'speaking truth to power', instead choosing radical critique of capitalism and proposal for direct action. 3. Media refuse to publish interview. imginn.com/p/DUoFV4eEZQB/
