François V.V.

Arrested at the Summit of the Americas during the Carnival against Capitalism on April 20, 2001, François was found guilty of taking part in a riot in September 2003. On Friday February 13th 2004, the sentence was delayed until march 2nd because the judge was absent!

Friday February 13th 2004, the judge Richard Grenier of the Court of Quebec was supposed to give me my sentence. Let me remind you in short that in September 2003, a jury found me guilty of taking part in a riot because I waved a red flag during the Carnival against Capitalism on April 20th 2001 at the Summit of the Americas in Quebec City. The theory of Sergeant Peter McLaren of the RCMP who arrested me is that I was controlling the crowd by making signals with the flag and that I was encouraging people to throw things at the police... The Crown Prosecutor Marc-Denis Quintin asked for 4 month in jail for what he called a “challenge for authority

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
