A British Columbia man is speaking out after the RCMP watchdog chastised a controversial unit for its “frequent unreasonable actions” at Fairy Creek in 2021. Brian Smallshaw, from Salt Spring Island, said he suspected the force was breaking the law. …In a scathing report completed last month, the commission found the Mounties wrongfully arrested Smallshaw. The company that owns the logging rights in the contested area, Teal-Jones Group, was granted an injunction in B.C. Supreme Court prohibiting protesters from blocking access to roads and company activity. The report harshly criticizes the RCMP’s Community-Industry Response Group (C-IRG) for using legally unjustified, “disproportionately intrusive” methods when enforcing that injunction. …The report says the complaints commission made similar findings about C-IRG in three subsequent reviews, which are not yet public. …In a statement, the RCMP agreed with the recommendations, including that someone should apologize to Smallshaw.
