Just went to the opening of the new Lewis Hermann Reserve. @AlboMP spoke and a woman, holding a baby, showed up with a protest sign about Palestine 🍉 Police tried to forcibly remove her. A shameful response, real failure for politicians in attendance to be an ethical bystander

I only caught a moment of it and went over to tell the police to go away (which they actually did). It was rough. It’s not ok for residents to be treated with that. I’m really disappointed that no other councillor, MPs in attendance, or the prime minister called it out.
