The #SPVM terrorizing the friends of Nooran Rezayi with a series of house raids today, several months after the teenager was killed by a Longueuil cop. It was claimed that the SPVM was investigating why the cop opened fire with no warning or apparent provocation.

A banner dropped over a viaduct reading "Viva Aaron Bushnell, L'espoir c'est la lutte"
Anonymous submission: Viva Aaron Bushnell
As Lupe wrote two years ago, may we "continue this struggle until the beautiful world that Aaron knew we deserved is born."
L'espoir c'est la lutte and blessed be flame.
Two pieces of logging machinery were destroyed by fire near the Grandbois old-growth forest, where hundreds of trees were recently cut down to build a logging road.

A van belonging to a company making drones that use AI for border surveillance was set on fire last weekend in Montreal. ARA Robotics is receiving over $8 million in subsidies as the Canadian government complies with Trump's demands to harden border policing.

Is it normal, in a Canadian city, for the police to beat and tear gas hundreds of people for more than an hour, injuring six, to protect a company providing guards to concentration camps, and for it not to be in any major local or national news media the next day? Asking for a friend.
"Tout le monde déteste la police" is commonplace.
A crowd stands behind a wall of three banners. In the foreground "Make fear change sides" in red paint on white fabric. Torn police tape lies on the driveway in front of them. Someone holds a red union flag in the air.

Montréal, 13 February 2026.
You do not need to be in Minneapolis, or LA, etc., to help in this fight. You don't even need to confront ICE/CBP themselves. The arms of this machine are everywhere.
d-do you want to throw bricks at cops cars with me? anarchist pointing their fingers together with huge round eyes and hearts coming from the sides

US Troops killed all the guards at Dachau for this kind of shit.
In Los Angeles, California, tensions escalated as law enforcement officers drew their weapons on students participating in an anti-ICE march.
They're going to try to put this woman in federal prison for 50 years, and she probably knew that going in.
But jury nullification is still a thing.
The SPVM's violence confirms that the struggle against ICE and GardaWorld is also a struggle against the police, here and everywhere.
Courageous protesters also threw back tear gas capsules towards the police and aimed laser pointers at them, while others made calls to stay together and treated those affected by chemical weapons.
A Tesla charging station was attacked on the return route.
There was unfortunately at least one arrest and one person injured who had to take an ambulance. But the crowd was determined, responding to the riot cops with rocks and chunks of ice, as a constant stream of snowballs distracted and confused them.
Shooting dozens of rounds of tear gas and using pepper spray and their batons, the SPVM violently pushed back more than a thousand people who showed up this afternoon to send a message to GardaWorld over their contracts with ICE at their offices and training center in Ville Saint-Laurent. (thread)
Demain! Tomorrow!
In this way, while meeting people's needs and showing that there is nothing sacred in private property, they expand the terrain of liberatory struggle however slightly while shrinking that of those wagering on terror and domination.
Robins des ruelles are not alone in taking up the proposal, but the highly visible and evocative lootings have been the most successful. They call attention to a daily exploiter, a social enemy much more real and present in our lives than the scapegoats that politicians try to sell us.
They're easily the most popular political actions of the past 10 years here. Radicals elsewhere should take note. Anarchists argued for expropriative means in place of campaigns that have been unable to resonate in which activists hid their true beliefs behind social-democratic goals and methods.
In the entryway of a Metro grocery store, someone dressed as Santa Claus hands off bags filled with groceries to people wearing elf hats.

We've heard variations on the thesis that the best counter-recruitment moves against the far right are concrete responses to capitalist dispossession—actions that resonate with people's anger at elites. Two MTL grocery store robberies since December with redistribution of the loot fit the bill.
Radicals who refuse to speak to corporate media, recognizing them to be structurally embedded in the dominant order, are not wrong.
Quel est l'objectif ultime derrière ce geste politique? Conscientiser les dirigeants aux prix élevés à l’épicerie, redonner aux plus démunis? Nous ne croyons pas qu'il soit possible de conscientiser ceux qui nous oppriment. Nous ne voulons pas dénoncer, mais plutôt montrer qu'un autre monde est possible. Pour cela, il faut assumer d'attaquer la mafia de l'alimentaire, c'est-à-dire les entreprises qui ont un monopole sur notre subsistance. Il y a d'autres manières d'organiser notre alimentation, en dehors de la logique économique. Exproprions les grandes chaînes d'épicerie, remplaçons-les par des coopératives ; développons une agriculture locale et communautaire.
Nous ne sommes pas que des consommateurs, mais aussi des personnes capables de révolte, et avons le pouvoir de changer ce système abusif. Contrairement à ce que l'on veut nous faire croire, notre appauvrissement ne repose pas sur d'abstraites variations des marchés mondiaux : il est structurellement maintenu par les pouvoirs politiques et économiques. Nous refusons leur fiction de « l'ordre des choses », nous voulons faire mouvement pour le renverser.
Il ne tient qu'à nous de démarchandiser notre vie. Tout est déjà là et il y en a assez pour tout le monde. Le jour où nous refusons de collaborer avec ce système brisé, où nous cessons de payer, tout devient possible.
1. Mass media outlet interviews Robins des ruelles.
2. Robins refuse to frame their actions as charity or 'speaking truth to power', instead choosing radical critique of capitalism and proposal for direct action.
3. Media refuse to publish interview.

« Contrairement à l’idée reçue selon laquelle les caméras corporelles servent avant tout à responsabiliser la police, leurs enregistrements sont plus souvent utilisés pour poursuivre des citoyens que des policiers », observe Rémi Boivin, de l’Université de Montréal.
