Crimbrary did a quick survey of editorial reaction to the new police powers that the Ontario government instituted without public debate or legislative input. Here is a sampling.
The Toronto Star has an editorial "Police Powers too Sweeping." The Globe and Mail weighs in with "Compromised Civil Liberties." The Ottawa Citizen's editorial is titled, "Power Grab." The Montreal Gazette, the Vancouver Sun and the Guelph Mercury didn't think this issue was important enough to warrant a comment.
