I heard zello chatter that they saw a family member of the woman post a comment on fb, that she did not in fact die. place as much weight on that 3rd hand account as you feel comfortable.

She’s a robot drone wearing the old lady’s skin to infiltrate the convoy and do a false flag attack to give the police justification to reduce the convoyers weekend dance party privileges.

The horse tactic is horrible and they described it on CBC. They rush in with horses to clear space so the cops can come in behind them. It seems like an obviously dangerous thing to do for everyone involved when they can just keep baby-stepping the line forward as they have everywhere else today. Seems like an easy way to kill a protester or maim a horse.

They're running full throttle with the horse thing and basically saying Trudeau rode it himself.

Will co-sign that the horse tactics are not good. And cops probably lied about the "bike being thrown".

Will at the same time state that the facts of the matter is one dude got stepped on by the hind leg of a horse, and the other person was just knocked to the ground when the horse tripped over the front of the scooter. Sucks to feel like you're defending police by "well actuallying" about the details

Is it too optimistic to hope that today shows that crowd control can be done relatively peacefully and safely and this will carry forward to future (and left wing?) protests? Probably.

RCMP investigate alleged attack on Coastal GasLink pipeline worksite in B.C.
Company claims 20 people attacked security, workers; no suspects identified and no arrests yet, police say

RCMP said they're investigating a "violent confrontation" at a pipeline construction site involving an unidentified group of about 20 people who allegedly threatened Coastal GasLink (CGL) employees and attending officers.

Police said they were called to the Marten Forest Service Road about 60 kilometres south of Houston, B.C., shortly after midnight on Feb. 17. They said CGL security reported violence at the site, where workers are helping build part of a 670-kilometre natural gas pipeline.

RCMP said around 20 people had allegedly attacked security guards and employees.

"So these individuals, the 20 or so masked individuals, took these employees by surprise in a very aggressive and calculated method," Chief Supt. Warren Brown told CBC News on Friday morning.

"They confronted the employees, threatened them with axes and flares and other incendiary-type devices."

Heavy equipment on-site was commandeered by the attackers and used to damage other equipment, according to CGL.

It remains unclear how many employees were on site at the time of the attack.

In an update provided Feb. 18, the company said nine employees, including security guards and contract workers, were present at the site. Two different RCMP officers, who both said they'd spoken with CGL, provided different numbers: one said 12 employees were on site, and the other said 11. Both agreed four of those people were security guards.

Police also said officers were targeted when they went to investigate.

RCMP said the road was blocked with downed trees, tar-covered stumps, wire and boards with spikes. They said as they made their way along the road, people threw smoke bombs and fire-lit sticks.

Brown said one officer was injured after he walked over a board with spikes in it, which police said was left by the attackers.

CGL said lighting and video surveillance were disabled as part of the attack, and any video and photo evidence they have, have been handed over to investigators.

RCMP media relations Cpl. Madonna Saunderson said, so far, no suspects have been identified, and no one is in custody.

Further down the road, police said there was extensive damage to heavy machinery and buildings. CGL said there were "millions of dollars in damage" but it is estimating the final cost.

Brown said the attackers used machinery at the site to damage buildings and the drill pad at the site. When officers arrived to investigate that damage, the attackers had already left, he said.

Police are appealing to the public for any information they may have about the incident. Brown said police plan to speak with employees who were attacked but that many of them "are very scared and shaken up over this."

So far, neither the police nor CGL have explicitly said whether they believe the alleged attack is tied to opposition to the pipeline.

CGL said there have been several incidents over the past "several weeks" where unknown people have used forest trails to get to that particular site and confront and intimidate workers. The company said those incidents were reported to police.

Brown said those behind the attack are not protesters and described the incident as "devious" and "evil."

"This has nothing to do with protest activity, whether it be legal or illegal," he said, "This strictly has to do with a very, very serious and significant criminal investigation."

Brown told CBC News that past protests law enforcement has observed at the site have involved people who were hostile and acting illegally, as well as those acting peacefully.

He said police would ensure that nearby residents and peaceful protesters were safe.

...

Coincidentally, amidst a public debate around the government using emergency measures to limit protest, a bunch of mysterious radicals appear and do an incredible amount of damage to the pipeline construction project, only to vanish back into the woods without a trace, a severe and incredible escalation from the mundane road blockade protest tactics to date.

They were so professional that they were trained in using construction equipment, able to disable video surveillance and able to vanish without giving police any leads.

Come on did this really loving happen?

So somebody managed to inflict millions of dollars in damages to resource company property, and the only injury was someone who stepped on a board with a nail in it? Seems like a pretty good outcome whoever did it.

Let's just take a moment to think of the poor conservative who has to deal with always supporting the cops and loves to see the police take a heavy hand to unlawful protesters and at the same time scream about police brutality because they are nearly doing their job now against a bunch of alt right idiots.
Police of now become schroedinger's police force, both high and mighty and beyond reproach, and low and evil and total meanies.

What the typical conservative hasn’t realized yet is that even though the cops are on their side, the cops don’t view the rank and file as their equals.
