Canadian Protestors Strip Nude As They Clash With Riot Police
Canadian protestors strip off their clothes as they clash with riot police on the streets of Montreal in an attempt to prevent police brutality and bring attention to their cause.
Due to the onslaught of repeated police brutality in Canada protestors are now resorting to a new tactic to prevent police violence and bring further attention to their cause – they are hitting the streets in the nude.
While the protests in Canada may have started off as students protesting tuition hikes hundreds of thousands of citizens have joined the movement in protests to take on a wide array of issues.
The media still continues to label the movement as students protesting tuition hikes but anyone with the ability to think critically can easily arrive to the conclusion that hundreds of thousands of people protesting on the streets are obviously there to protest more than just tuition hikes.

Nudity and violence: Canadian students strip in protest, clash with police (PHOTOS, VIDEO)
Formula 1 fans attending a Grand Prix cocktail reception in Montreal certainly got more than they bargained for, as riot police clashed with semi-naked students in the city streets, arresting 39 people.
Thousands of men and women stripped to protest planned tuition hikes and embarrass the hosts of the Formula One Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal.
Protesters told reporters they were naked for a number of reasons:to show the government they have been transparent in their demands to freeze tuition fees, to garner more media attention to their cause, and to discourage police from handling them roughly.
But despite the students baring all, riot police still used tear gas, pepper spray and batons to break up the crowds, eventually arresting nearly 40 people. Still, blazing sirens, revving engines and hovering helicopters did nothing to dampen the protesters’ mood – the crowds dispersed only when it started to rain on their parade.
Montreal police spokesperson Ian Lafreniere said most people were arrested because police had reason to believe they were preparing to commit crimes and damage property.
Since February, hundreds of protesters have been arrested and clashes have erupted sporadically as more than 165,000 students have refused to attend class and tens of thousands have taken part in nightly demonstrations.
Quebec Premier Jean Charest, whose popularity has plummeted over the crisis, had earlier expressed anger at the direct threats against the Grand Prix.
“When we attack the Grand Prix, it’s not the Quebec government that people are assaulting, it’s all Quebecers,” Charest said.
The protests and media attention have already put a dent in the global sporting event, which usually generates nearly $100 million in revenue for the city, but has lagged on ticket sales this year.
