Canadian police bombed an oil well to frame climate protesters, coerced a couple to carry out a bomb plot to frame them for terrorism, raided Indigenous camps on behalf of oil interests, watched while an angry mob burned a Mi’kmaq lobster pound, evict homeless people from camps…
This could be the bombing and/or the coercion referenced: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/rcmp-bombed-oil-site-in-dirty-tricks-campaign-1.188599
I grew up in Alberta but I don’t remember hearing about this. Isn’t too surprising though, even the CBC article I’ve linked has almost no information for what should be a huge story. I am familiar with the name Weibo Ludwig however, so I’ll have to take some time and look into all this again.
Also worth looking into is the C-IRG (a Canadian police special operations group which helps out resource extraction companies in the most brutal ways). The Canada Files and The Tyee for example have good articles on them.
RCMP is unbelievably shady. I remember the Tyee printed a really good article about covid reinfection immunity stripping. Thanks!
