Peacefully Assaulting People
Too many to list them all but here are some examples
April 20, 2006 3 OPP officers were injured: [Police Statement states] approximately 4:30 a.m. today, teams of officers trained in the safe orderly removal of protesters attended the Douglas Creek Estates, Caledonia and removed the protesters. Officers were required to use the least amount of force that was necessary in order to affect some of the arrests. The site was secured, however a short time later the site was re-occupied. During this time three OPP officers were injured and required medical attention. Our officers showed tremendous restraint while confronted by the protesters with weapons which included axes, crowbars, rocks and a various assortment of makeshift batons.
Assaulting Police Officer: June 4, 2006, at approximately 10:00 pm, David Hartless, a police officer with the Hamilton Police Services, walked outside of his house, which is located on Braemar Avenue approximately 50 feet from Douglas Creek Estates, and observed about 40 to 50 protestors threatening and harassing 3 males who had been sitting at the end of the street passively smoking cigarettes. Mr. Hartless, asked one of the female protestors what was going on and was told: "You got no business here fucking leave or I will knock you dead right now." When the protestors began physically attacking one of the males, he intervened and found himself being punched in the back and thrown to the ground by other protestors. One of the protestors had a hand held taser and attempted to shock him with it. Only when other residents of the street came out of their houses and formed a line of defence which Mr. Hartless was able to get behind did the assault stop. The OPP were called, took a report and took no further steps against the protestors. [As reported in Lawsuit]
June 9, 2006 , an elderly couple, Kathe Golke and Gunther Golke, of Simcoe, Ontario, stopped their car on Argyle Street near the protestors' barricade to look into Douglas Creek Estates. The couple were followed into the nearby Canadian Tire parking lot by approximately 25 protestors who surrounded their car, would not let them leave, and taunted them with threats of death or physical harm. One protestor put his hand through the open window and others jumped on the vehicle. Mr. Golke suffered a heart attack that required treatment at West Haldimand Memorial Hospital. This incident took place in full view of nearby OPP officers, who took no steps to intervene and prevent the assault. [As reported in Lawsuit]

When they arrived at the scene, Garbutt set up his television camera approximately 50 feet away and was told by one of the OPP officers at the site not to get any closer. A group of the protestors left the Golke's car, walked past two OPP officers, and demanded that Mr. Garbutt hand over his camera and film. When one of the protestors reached for the camera Mr. Garbutt grabbed his arm. He was then spun around, thrown against the side of the CH TV van, held in a head lock and punched in the head. His camera was taken and the video tape inside was removed. Mr. Garbutt required treatment at West Haldimand General Hospital.
