In Montréal, the police is now... tear gassing babies. A baby who was attending a family salsa dancing event in a park with her parents.
The police said "strategic decisions" were made 😠
"Dancing event in park interrupted by nearby protest; police call situation ‘regrettable’"

Mendoza said as he and his family were still getting their bearings, he got angry with a group of protesters standing nearby and yelled at them to get away from his children. But he now thinks he may have reacted too strongly.
"Actually, we ended up being hurt by the police," he said. "I don't know how dangerous the march was, but [the protesters] were definitely not the ones that were attacking us."
