Toronto officers not getting clear direction on policing pro-Palestinian protests, union says

The union for Toronto’s police service says its officers aren’t getting clear direction from senior leaders on how to handle pro-Palestinian protests, including a Boxing Day demonstration at one of the city’s busiest shopping malls.

The Toronto Police Association, which represents around 8,000 uniformed and civilian members of the Toronto Police Service, was responding after Ontario’s Solicitor-General publicly criticized the force for what he called a lack of action on anti-Israel protests.
