This seems a bit of an odd piece. Police raided a Saint-Léonard warehouse at the beginning of February and found a lot of weapons and explosives, and now they’re looking for four men connected with the place. There’s one shot from a security video (showing three guys) and not much more to go on. Why now, I wonder.

Police arrested six people even before the anti-police-brutality demo began this afternoon, after they had warned people to stay away from the Place des Festivals where demonstrators planned to meet. Radio-Canada says cops broke out the tear gas when the march reached Saint-Denis and Marie-Anne.
(CBC and the Gazette have illustrated their reports with photos from last year, which seems a little unfair. One demo is not necessarily a carbon copy of another.)
Later: Images from the demo – this year’s.
