Terrorism and the Administration of Justice in Canada Resource Type: Book Published: 2008 After September 11, 2001, Canadian governments made significant changes to the law so that non-citizens with suspected links to terrorism could be held indefinitely with no due process.

- The Swing of That Truncheon Thing
The Nature of the Beast Revealed Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter Published: 2011 Historically, police violence is a fact of life in every society. In a society based on a capitalist economy, the police serve those that have the most money and property.
