An independent review of RCMP actions in shutting down a 2022 logging protest near Argenta is still underway a year after it began, and the lawyer representing the people who were arrested says the delay is predictable.
The review is being conducted by the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission (CRCC), which is independent of the RCMP.
It is investigating whether the RCMP “E” Division Community-Industry Response Group (C-IRG) followed its own policies and the law, and whether its policies and tactics comply with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
