I was not surprised, but certainly disappointed, that this fact was not brought back to people's attention or even mentioned by the press when police brutality was at the centre of the news cycle.
By the way, there is a good documentary by CBC about the G20 summit fiasco and it is freely available on YouTube:
Personally, the thing I found most blood-boiling was when one of the persons the police had wrongfully arrested was saying that they are pressing charges against him, unlike most others who were released without charges, because they had used so much force during arrest that he was suffering from permanent injuries, so the police wanted to make it look like the arrest was justified.
