Lundi, notre journaliste @savannacraig a été arrêtée par le @SPVM alors qu'elle ne faisait que son travail.
@Val_Plante & @FBonnardelCAQ il est temps d'envoyer un message clair: les journalistes ne seront pas intimidé-es ou entravé-es pour leur travail.

@CUTVMontreal@SPVM@Val_Plante@fbonnardelCAQ My case is not an isolated incident, as a similar situation recently happened to @Songstress28. I’m the second journalist to be arrested and charged in Canada this year: https://t.co/X7iy0QDiyd Morin’s charges were dropped, but journalists should not be arrested to begin with.

L’Association canadienne des journalistes demande à @SPVM d’abandonner immédiatement l’accusation de « méfait » portée contre @savannacraig, une journaliste de @CUTVMontreal, qui couvrait une manifestation dans une banque du centre-ville plus tôt cette semaine.
The CAJ calls for @SPVM to immediately drop the charges of 'criminal mischief' levied against @CUTVMontreal journalist @savannacraig.
HT @CFWIJ and @pressfreedom for teaming up on this case of basic press freedoms being violated.

If you knowingly arrest a journalist who is clearly documenting a newsworthy event, @SPVM , then your actions are indistinguishable from intimidation and erosion of press freedoms in your country.
