OPP Finally Lay Charges in Caledonia Protest
September 20th, 2008 by Roby received 1 Comment »The OPP has finally responded properly to illegal protesting and terrorism. Haldimand OPP have made an arrest and laid charges in what they are saying will be the beginning of many in relation to the labour day protests in Caledonia earlier this month. Police say they are sorting through evidence, witness statements, photo and video images from September 1st incidents on the Highway 6 Bypass and Argyle Street. Today, 43 year-old Kenneth Greene was arrested and handed 14 charges including 4 counts of assault with a weapon and three counts of uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm. Greene is currently being held for a bail hearing.
This comes on the heels of Gary McHale’s entrance into the national election stage, and only after revelations surfaced about OPP boss Julian Fantino has been intimidating Haldimand Council, Haldimand’s mayor Marie Trainer, and even Haldimand-Norfolk MPP Toby Barrett, over the past year. This blog finds a strange coincidence between the entrance of McHale into the race and the sudden interest to “show” the OPP are doing their jobs in Caledonia.
UPDATE: A Powless was also arrested? What?!?!?! I Wonder if Clyde said it was okay. OPP say 19 year old Byron Powless, of Ohsweken, was involved in the Highway 6 by-pass blockade from April 26-29 of this year. He is charged with Mischief and disguise with intent.

I think it is time for Julian Fantino to resign. IN fact he should be charged with obstruction of justice. All citizens should be writing their own letters to McGuinty.
This guys need to be dumped. Keep up the good work. It is time for Canadian of all backgrounds to stand tall and strong to state we will not accept violent terrorist acts from any group in our country.
