The protests (and the associated police brutality) are still continuing in . In response, the government has brought us one step closer to martial law with the passage of Bill 78, which allows cops to fine people $5k-$125k for attending a protest of over 50 people, where a permit has not been issued or details not reveled beforehand. The fines also apply to anyone attending a protest while wearing a hoodie, scarf or mask. Despite facing such stiff penalties, the protesters continue, undeterred and strong in numbers, and chanting ‘La loi speciale, on s’en calisse!’ (we don’t give a damn about your special law)
