stevedtrm discovered 3 months ago- Police liars. From the page: "The officer's two partners joined her, and Jones slipped the camera into his pocket. The police then told him it was illegal to sit in a city park when not on a bench and he would have to leave. They said sitting on the ledge qualified as improper use of city structures, he recounted. "I found this to be absurd, since there were no benches around and there were many other people sitting around the square," Jones said. "The ledge and the area around the ledge where I was sitting is styled in such a way that it appears to have been intended to be used as a seating area in addition to any other apparent purpose it may have.""

- From the page: "Most people who walk by Ămilie Gamelin Park downtown see its many granite surfaces as an invitation to sit and relax. Dozens were doing just that in the sun yesterday and ever since the park opened in 1992. But as a Concordia University student found out Saturday, Montreal police, if they so choose, can hit you with a $628 ticket for nothing more menacing than sitting on a ledge." Is it me, or has there been a surge of that kind of events in Canada? Are things getting worse here?
