They were cops

No surprise here, the evidence was piling up pretty heavily to point this way.

Quebec provincial police admitted Thursday that three of their officers disguised themselves as demonstrators during the protest at the North American leaders summit in Montebello, Que.

However, the police force denied allegations its undercover officers were there on Monday to provoke the crowd and instigate violence.

. . .

Police said the three were told to monitor protesters who were not peacefully demonstrating to prevent any violent incidents, but they were called out as undercover agents when they refused to throw objects.


Yeah, watch the video and see how well these three guys "blend". Refusing to throw objects but carrying rocks towards the police line while wearing masks and fatigues? Let's just say their credibility isn't all that high right now.
