It's pretty much widely accepted that this was used in both Montreal and Toronto. There are also several well-documented cases around the world. I'm not saying that mikey's assumptions regarding motivation are correct, but they're definitely hard to dispell. Etiher way it's a pretty underhanded and dirty tactic to use by law enforcement.
I also tend to agree with the people that are saying things are going to start getting uglier in the States if improvements aren't made soon. The #occupy movement is being portrayed as collection of fringe individuals, but it's becoming more and more mainstream. People are genuinely fed up and slowly realizing that traditional channels of change have been corrupted to the point where they can't be relied upon anymore. False consciousness only lasts so long.
