Yes, BLM! I couldn't breath since Sept, 2018 in the condo building of 160 Vanderhoof Ave, Toronto. I absolutely believe Prime minister Trudeau yesterday said that the Canada exist social system race discriminations. White supremacy, racism already existed in the condo for long.

It’s a felony for someone to trip in front of you, these days?

What about the other cops who just walked by and over the bleeding old man on the sidewalk? Where is their accountability for such wanton & callous behaviour? They were neither serving nor protecting at that point.

Elderly who failed at social distancing and listening to direct command to move. His 6'5' frame could not stay balanced after remaining in direct line of police. Shoved and stumbled backward, resulting in a fall. Self inflected, for obstruction, should be charged, not police.

Let's hear for the elderly !

It’s clear from the video they went too far. You can see the officer wanting to bend down.
