“THIS IS NO LONGER
A SAFE PLACE”

HOMOPHOBIC POLICING
IN QUEBEC, 2007-PRESENT
GAY CRUISING

Cruising refers to the practice of walking or driving around
a public area in search of a sexual partner. This practice
has historically allowed queers, especially men, to fulfill
their sexual needs while at the same time circumventing
the constraints imposed by homophobia. Cruising is
largely non-verbal. Eye contact and body language are
used to signal sexual interest and consent.

HETEROSEXISM

Heterosexism posits that heterosexuality is superior to
homosexuality and that heterosexuality is the only valid
sexuality. It also involves discrimination against queer
people and internalized homophobia.

BAITING

Baiting is a common entrapment tactic used by agents
provocateurs. It involves purposefully misleading individuals into committing a crime. Police use gay cruising
codes, such as sustained eye contact, to provoke sexual
encounters between themselves and queer men, leading
the men from whom they have solicited a sexual act to
technically violate sections 173(1) or 271(1) of the Canadian Criminal Code.

BY

ACAB

content warning: homophobic slurs,
targeted arrests
n August 28 2017, the Service
de Police de la Ville de Montréal
(SPVM) officially apologized
for “the events that took place
during different police operations
in gay bars and clubs during the ‘60s
to the ‘90s.” Emphasis on bars and
clubs. Purposeful omission of parks
and public washrooms. Homophobic
policing practices on the island of
Montreal are far from over. With
the collaboration of the Services des
Grands Parcs, three neighbourhood
police stations in Montreal have
launched coordinated attacks on
men who use the wooded areas
and public washrooms of parks for
the purposes of consensual sexual
encounters with other men. Similar
projects have been launched by the
Service de Police la Ville de Longueuil
(SPAL), the Service de Police de la
Ville de Saguenay (SPVS), the Service
de Police de la Ville de Québec (SPVQ),
and the Sûreté du Québec (SQ).
Using their knowledge of gay
cruising practices, plainclothes
cops continue to harass, ticket, and
arrest men who seek out sexual
companionship in places other

O

than those officially recognized and
legally sanctified by heterosexist
sexual norms. Having co-opted our
shared understanding of location,
plainclothes cops are able to exploit,
in a discrete, and largely unforceful
manner, our need for affection and
sexual companionship.
The number of arrests made
within the context of these
supposedly gender- and sexualityneutral “anti-indecency” operations
is alarming. Together, the SPVM, the
SPAL, and the SPVQ have arrested at
least 300 men for cruising in public
spaces since 2007. I say “at least”
because the statistics obtained by
filing access to information requests
with these police services did not
include statistics for certain projects
or years. Equally as striking are the
sums of money that the Service des
Grands Parcs has spent trying to
make parks on the island of Montreal
less attractive to men who have sex
with men. A conservative estimate
suggests a sum of approximately 2.2
million dollars.
Knowledge of gay cruising
practices has made it remarkably
easy for private security forces and
police services to entrap men who
have sex with men. Thwarting their
ability to do so requires that we

understand the tactics that police
services use in order to entrap us
while cruising. For reasons that
will be explained below, police
services in this province tend to
make use of sections 173(1) and
271(1) of the Canadian Criminal
Code when hunting down men
who have sex with men. Criminal
code accusations are not the only
tactics currently being used by cops
to harass men who have sex with
men. In an underhanded attempt
to mask the homophobic nature
of their repressive operations,
Longueuil police have started using
a seemingly mundane municipal bylaw to crack down on men having
sex with men in public spaces.
MODUS OPERANDI
Accusations under section 173(1) of the
Canadian Criminal Code
Currently, Section 173(1) is the
most common accusation being
made against against gay men in
the province of Quebec. Section
173(1) makes illegal the wilful
performance of “an indecent act
in a public place in the presence
of one or more persons, or in any
place with intent to insult or offend
any person.” Section 173(1) takes
after its now repealed predecessor,

�features
section 157, which prohibited acts
of “gross indecency” and was almost
exclusively used for the purposes
of
persecuting
homosexuals.
Like section 157, section 173(1) is
terminologically vague; the term
“indecency” is (purposefully?) left
undefined. This feature of section
173(1) has made it the weapon par
excellence of homophobic police
in the province. Drawing on an
analysis of a homophobic police
sting published in the December
1980/January 1981 issue of La
Berdache, and on municipal court
rulings describing these stings, we
have done our best to expose the
strategy of undercover cops who
lay charges of “indecency” under
section 173(1).
The first step to any “successful”
operation
involves
selecting
a known gay cruising ground;
however, in most, if not all cases, the
selection process can be completely
foregone thanks to a heterosexist
public that actively reports sightings
of men engaged in “indecent”
activities with other men (or so
police say). Once a cruising ground
has been selected, the officer,
now in plainclothes, picks a spot
and loiters (sexily?). Though he is
obviously not interested in any form
of sexual exchange, the “success”
of the operation depends upon his
ability to convince other cruisers
that he is interested in having a
sexual encounter. To avoid being
accused of entrapment, however,
the cop cannot express this interest
verbally (if he does, the courts are
much more likely to see through his
little game); instead, he expresses
his interest by purposefully failing
to object to the non-verbal sexual
propositioning of other cruisers,
as well as by staying put and
taking on the role of the passive,
voyeuristic observer.
Let us recall that for charges to
be laid under section 173(1), two
requirements must be fulfilled.
First, an “indecent” act must take
place. Second, this “indecent” act
must be committed in the presence
of “one or more persons” or “with
the intent to insult or offend any
person.” Though “indecency” is
left undefined, an examination of
two recent court cases in which
police laid charges of “indecency”
against gay men suggest that police
understand this term to mean
exposure of one’s genital organs for
the purpose of sexual gratification.
For this reason, the undercover cop
waits until the clothed foreplay is
over and a sexual act begins to reveal
his true identity. Once the cruiser
has unclothed the lower portion of
his body, the first requirement of
the “crime” has been fulfilled. As we
have seen, for the accusation to hold
in court, the sexual act must have
been committed in the presence
of “one or more persons.” This is
where the second undercover cop
makes his appearance. After having

November 5, 2018
mcgilldaily.com | The McGill Daily
lurked unnoticed, he now appears to
witness the sexual act. The second
requirement is now fulfilled and a
charge of “indecency” can be laid
against his unsuspecting victim.

“He moved
slowly, in a 90
degree arc-like
fashion, back
and forth, all
the while
looking at me
with interest...”
—Anonymous

In many cases, however, the
requirement that the act be
performed in front of “one or more
persons” is given a lax interpretation
both by police and the courts. In R.
c. Martin, a 1997 court case involving
a plainclothes cop and a cruiser in
Parc Angrignon, Judge DENAULT
slyly circumvents this requirement
by arguing that the plainclothes
cop was a member of the public at
the time of the interaction (how
convenient!). For the plainclothes
security guard provoking a sexual
encounter between himself and
a cruiser in the washrooms of
Montreal’s Eaton Centre back in
2017, on its own, the fact that other
people “auraient pu voir le PRÉ se
masturber” (could have seen the
defendant masturbating) was seen
as fulfilling the (seemingly?) more
stringent criterion that the act
actually be performed in front of
“one or more persons.”
Last year’s Eaton Centre arrest,
though it was carried out by a
private security firm rather than by
state agents, is characteristic of the
kinds of operations carried out by
plainclothes cops in the province of
Quebec for the purposes of laying
accusations under section 173(1).
For this reason, and for reasons that
will soon become clear, this arrest it
is worth dwelling upon a bit longer.
According to the police report
written by the arresting officer, the
events surrounding the cruiser’s
arrest happened as follows:
“We arrived at the
Eaton Center to meet
[REDACTED],
head
of
Eaton Centre security who
informed us that the man
was being detained after
having
masturbated
in
front of the urinals of the
Eaton Centre. He began
by explaining to us that
such behaviour represents
an important problem in
the Eaton Centre. Since a
few weeks, men have been
showing up at the urinals in
order to masturbate. They
frequently make their way
there in order to meet other
men for the purposes of

masturbating in front of the
urinals. According to the
security guard, seven men
have been caught performing
indecent actions in the
washrooms of the Eaton
Centre. In order to remedy
[the ‘problem’ of consensual
sexual encounters between
men],
[Eaton
Center
security] installed cameras
in the 3rd floor washrooms
of the Eaton Centre and
a security guard works in
plainclothes in order to catch
individuals in the act.”[...]
“Using the cameras, they
notice the defendant make
his way to the urinals,
around [TIME STAMP],
located in the 3rd floor
washrooms of the Eaton
Centre. They therefore send
their plainclothes security
guard [REDACTED]. [...]

The defendant exchanges a
few glances with security
guard [REDACTED]. About
2 or 3 minutes later, the
security guard notices the
defendant’s erection and
that he is making thrusting
movements while holding
his penis, all the while
looking at [REDACTED].
The security guard notices
the
man
masturbating.
[...] When security guard
[REDACTED] notices the
defendant
masturbating,
he exits the washroom and
communicates with the
security control centre in
order to proceed to the
arrest of the defendant”
[my emphasis].

In order to exculpate the
plainclothes agent, the arresting
officer fudges the amount of time
during which the cruiser and the
plainclothes agent exchange glances.
Video footage of the events show
the plainclothes agent exchanging
glances with the man for a period
of five to six minutes – exchanging
and holding gaze is a common way
of determining interest and consent.
On his way out of the washrooms,
the cruiser is tackled to the ground
by numerous security guards—a
fact that is conveniently omitted
from this incident report. The
report continues:
“Agent X then asks the
defendant why he comes to
do this at the Eaton Centre.
The defendant responds by
saying that the washrooms at
the Eaton Centre represent
an important meetup spot
for homosexual people

wishing to have sexual
exchanges with men.” [...]
“The Morality division of
the SPVM is aware of the
problem affecting the 3rd
floor washrooms of the
Eaton Centre. It has been a
recurrent problem for
many weeks.”
At the beginning of this report,
security head X claims that the
“problem” of cruising is a problem
that dates back only “a few weeks.”
This claim is grossly misleading.
The ninth floor washrooms of
Chez Eaton, the now renovated
and renamed mall after which
Montreal’s Eaton Centre is named
and beside which Montreal’s Eaton
Centre currently stands, were used
for cruising as far back as the early

9

’80s. More upsetting, however, is
the way in which, a few moments
after the cruiser informs X that
the third floor washrooms in the
Eaton Centre are a well-known
meetup spot, the officer writing
the report reaffirms in his closing
lines that the “problem” of cruising
“has been a recurrent problem for
many weeks.” The cops performing
the arrest overlook the defendant’s
attempt to historicize his action,
choosing instead to reassert the
narrative that has been fed to him
by both security personnel and the
SPVM’s morality division.
To cast the defendant as a threat
to public safety, security and police
actively sought to dehistoricize the
phenomenon of cruising. To do
so, they tell tales of men suddenly
flocking to public washrooms to
engage in sexual behaviours. The
phrase “since a few weeks, men have
been showing up at the urinals in order
to masturbate” is so much more scary
than the phrase “since first opening its
doors, Eaton Centre washrooms have
served as a meeting ground for men
seeking consensual sexual relations
with other men.” By dehistoricizing
the defendant’s act, security and
police
effectively
polemicized
the defendant’s act — an act that
is otherwise common, mundane,
harmless, and dare I say, hot. When
security and police say that the
“problem” of cruising is recent, what
they really should be saying is that
cruising is a phenomenon that they
have recently gotten into the habit
of problematizing.
Accusations under section 271(1) of the
Canadian Criminal Code
Police in the province of Quebec
continue to use charges of “sexual
assault” to punish men who engage
in consensual sexual relations with
other men. Police documents reveal
that between the years of 2012 and
2013, the SPVM was ready to make
use of this section of the criminal
code within the context of at least
two “anti-indecency” projects —
on that targeted Parc Angrignon
(Opération Sentier) and the other
that targeted Maisonneuve Park
and le Boisé de Pères (Opération
Narcisse), all of which are wellknown cruising grounds. The SQ
is known to have made use of this
article of the Criminal Code during
its undercover operations that took
place back in 2010 on Île Melville —
another gay cruising ground.
Accusations under section 271(1)
are made in much the same way as
those that are made under section
173(1). A plainclothes cop places
himself in or around a known
cruising ground and waits. This
time, however, he is not waiting for
an unsuspecting cruiser to show
him his genitals, nor is he waiting
for his accomplice to witness any
exhibitionistic act. This time, he is
waiting for the cruiser to touch him.
Once the cruiser touches the cop, he

is arrested, and a charge of sexual
assault is laid.
The truth, however, is that
plainclothes cops do not just “wait”
for their victims to “fall” into their
traps; they actively court them,
misleading and manipulating them
every step of the way. The following
is the testimony of a man who was
arrested for “sexual assault” on
a plainclothes cop in the Parc de
l’Île Melville back in 2010. It does
remarkable job at highlighting the
kinds of misleading foreplay that
plainclothes cops actively engage
in when trying to “catch” men who
have sex with men. More than
simply loitering around and waiting
to be touched, the undercover cop
purposefully maintains the gaze
of his victim, adamantly pursues
him through the woods, engages
him in friendly conversation,
conversationally suggests that
he is gay, and finally, offers his
victim his ass:
“Before leaving the park,
around [TIME STAMP], I
returned to the first parking
lot, for a few minutes, to
see if there were any men
[...] It was close to [TIME
STAMP] and I was about to
leave the area when I saw
[PLAINCLOTHES COP Z]
exiting the woods. He looked
interesting.
I
therefore
made my way towards him
in a perpendicular fashion
so that he could see me.
He saw me. Once we had
made eye contact, I turned
around, retracing my steps
telling myself that if he
was gay and interested he
would come in my direction.
Which he did. We were
about three meters distance
from one another, standing
up, without moving, looking
at each other during a few
minutes. He moved slowly, in
a 90 degree arc-like fashion,
back and forth, all the while
looking at me with interest,
but with a certain degree of
reservation. This interaction
lasted about 5 to 10 minutes.
Because I was conscious
of the fact that I was older
than him, I interpreted his
hesitation to approach me
as a sign that after having
seen me close-up, he was no
longer interested in me and
did not know how to leave
without offending me. So, I
decided to walk away from
him in order to give him the
chance to either part ways
with me or to follow me if he
was interested.
In order to do this, I had
to pass in front of him and
he took advantage of this
moment to speak to me,
saying: ‘there [aren’t] many
people.’ I answered in the
affirmative, all the while

making my way away from
him and from the place
where we found ourselves [...]
In this way, I began a walk of
almost one hundred meters
south-west into the woods
[...] to be certain that he
was interested in me, and
to, in this way, avoid any
misunderstandings. At first,

area was a known area for
homosexual
encounters
and he responded in the
affirmative. I asked him
how he came about this
knowledge. He responded
by telling me that he had
found
this
information
online at gay411.com [...]
There was a malaise between

me his ass. I found his
behaviour strange because
I had only suggested that
we embrace. In the context
of gay cruising, though,
there are ‘bottoms’ who are
submissive, passive, and
behave in this manner. I
took one or two steps in his
direction and put my right

I thought that he had gone,
because I no longer saw
him, so I slowed my pace
and finally, after a delay of
about two minutes, I could
see him starting to follow
me. While walking, I looked
behind myself many times to
see if he was following me,
which he was. [...] I stopped
to drink some water and to
let him catch up with me.
Indeed, he caught up with
me and we started a friendly
conversation that lasted a
couple minutes. We were a
few feet from one another.
[...] I asked him if he was
aware of the fact that this

us because neither one of
us was making any moves
and we were just standing
there, waiting.
Therefore, after a few
minutes of conversation
and of indecision, I asked
him ‘what do we do now’
in order to determine what
his expectations were. He
answered by saying that
he was‘ uncomfortable and
didn’t know what to do in
such circumstances’. I then
told him that we could at
least embrace one another.
Strangely, he turned his back
to me while continuing to
face me, as if he was offering

hand on his back, bringing
him against me, gently,
but firmly, all the while
saying ‘no, come here’. We
embraced one another, as
one gives a hug [...] To show
him that I took the interest
that he had previously
manifested seriously, I dared
a more intimate caress,
sliding my right hand down
his body towards his sex—
over his pants [...] But as
soon as he felt the contact
of my hand getting close
to his genitals, he pushed
me back and told me that I
was under arrest for sexual
assault, showing me his

police badge on which I saw
the name [COP’S NAME].”
Accusations under article 4.08a of
municipal bylaw no. 81-1923 (City
of Longueuil)
Unsurprisingly,
the
Canadian
Criminal Code is not the only body of
law currently being used to legitimize
the mistreatment of men who
have sex with men by state agents.
Municipal codes and park regulations
prohibiting “indecent” or “obscene”
conduct, play an important role in
this legitimation.
The following testimony comes
from a man who was ticketed by a
plainclothes cop for having violated
article 4.08a of municipal bylaw
no. 81-1923 — a municipal bylaw
that prohibits the performance of
“obscene” or “indecent acts.”
“I was cruising in [PARK
NAME], in the parking lot
close to [AREA NEARBY]. A
plainclothes cop was waiting
in his car. He tried everything
to make me believe that he
was gay. The tango lasted
close to 30 or 40 minutes.
Seeing as I wasn’t doing
anything, he began to wander
around my car, smiling at me.
I was rubbing my inner thigh,
never my genitals. Seeing that
I was still not doing anything
reprehensible (I was very
much on my guards), he then
approached the driver side
door that I had left open (it
was hot and this would allow
me to more easily enter into
contact with him if things
took a turn in that direction)
and pointed his crotch in
my direction. I took this as
an invitation to touch him.
I touched his inner thigh
just above his knee and he
immediately took out his
badge, telling me that I
was guilty of committing
an act of gross indecency”
[my emphasis].
Though “gross indecency” —
section 157 of the Canadian Criminal
Code criminal — was repealed in 1988,
Longueuil police continue to use this
term to designate the charges they
lay against gay men in parks. This
systematic misnaming is no error.
Municipal regulations, like the article
4.08a, serve the same repressive
function that section 157 did before
it was repealed: that of punishing
the existence and expression of nonheterosexual desires.
Longueuil police are not the only
ones engaged in this systematic
misnaming of charges. Last month, in
an article entitled Parc Lafontaine: un
«oeil magique» dans une salle de toilettes
publique, the term was tellingly, but
irresponsibly, tossed around both
by Philippe Teisceira-Lessard, the
La Presse journalist writing the
piece and by Anik de Repentigny,
communications director for the City
of Montreal.

Accusations under article 5.03 of
municipal bylaw no. 81-1923 (City
of Longueuil)
In 2016, Longueuil police
convinced city council to pass a law
making it illegal to walk on unmarked
trails in four Longueuil parks, at
least two of which are established
gay cruising grounds. Their idea was
simple. Cruising requires that men
who have sex with men be able to
access the less visible wooded areas of
parks. Accessing these areas requires
men who have sex with men to
make use of unmarked trails. Cut off
access to these trails and the cruising
will stop.
The following “statement of
offence” which details the events
leading up the ticketing of a gay man
in August of 2017 on Île Charron does
a strikingly good job at highlighting
the
homophobic
impetus
behind this law.
“Where I was: Undercover
operation in plainclothes
on l’Île Charron, a location
reputed for sexual exchanges
between
men
in
the
unmarked trails. What I
saw: I find myself at the end
of the parking lot, in the
hairpin bend. The defendant
looks at me, I look at him.
He therefore parks his car
immediately in the parking
lot right beside. I then make
my way through the green
space nearby, he exits his
vehicle and follows me, I
enter an uncleared wooded
area where the vegetation
is dense. The city does not
maintain this area, in order
to gain access to this area, I
have to clear a path with my
hands. The defendant follows
me into this area and says
to me: the paths are not like
they used to be. He circulates
in the unmarked path for a
period of five minutes before
returning to his vehicle,
intercepted while he was
re-entering his vehicle.”
As if the first sentence of his
statement were not incriminating
enough, the plainclothes cop then
goes on to make explicit reference to
his use of the gaze — a gay cruising
practice that has been widely
documented by, among so many
others, Henning Beck and Mauriz
Lenzoff. As the above excerpt
makes clear, the current tactics
used by undercover cops hoping
to lay charges under article 5.03 of
bylaw no. 81-1923 are near-identical
to those used to by undercover cops
hoping to lay charges of “indecency”
or “sexual assault.”

Accusations under other municipal
by-laws and other hokey and
violent tactics
Longueuil police are not the
only ones making use of seemingly
unrelated municipal bylaws for the
purposes of whitewashing their
morality campaigns against men
who have sex with men. In 2017, the
municipal councillor of Saguenay,
Marc Pettersen, had plans to pass
a bylaw that would make it illegal
to park one’s car near Parc de la
Colline, a well-known cruising
ground. This seemingly benign
bylaw will make it possible for SPVS
agents to harass men who have sex
with men while simultaneously
protecting themselves against
accusations of sexual profiling.
Following the much publicize
nudity raids on Chutes SainteMarguerite (commonly referred
to as the Gay Falls), the mayor of
Saint-Adèle, Robert Milot, publicly
announced his plans to limit
access to the falls by means of a
security checkpoint. To make his
intentions less covert, Mr. Milot
should equip the checkpoint with
a sign that reads: “no faggots;
no fucking.”
To add insult to injury, at some
point during the past decade,
Longueuil police started delivering
the tickets they issue to men who
have sex with men directly to their
victims’ home addresses in the hopes
of wreaking havoc in the personal and
romantic lives of those men who do
not openly admit to being attracted
to or to having extramarital sex with
members of the same sex.
Under certain circumstances,
cruisers arrested under section 173(1)
may be required by prosecutors to
both register as a sex offender and
provide a DNA sample. All cruisers
arrested under section 271(1) are
fingerprinted and are required to
register as sex offenders and provide
DNA samples.

“The cop tried
everything to
make
me believe
that he
was gay.”
—Anonymous

Imposing limits on freedom of
movement is another tactic that
police and private security agents
use to discipline queer sexual desires
out of existence. In R c. Major, a 1998
court case involving a cruiser and a
plainclothes cop, Judge THEMENS
ordered the cruiser to not find himself
in or around Marie-Victorin Park. In
the 2010 court case mentioned above,
police ordered the cruiser not to find
himself in the Parc de l’Île Melville
between the time of his arrest and the
time of his first court hearing. Again,
in the 2017 court case mentioned

above, mall security ordered the
cruiser not to find himself in the
Eaton Centre for a period of one year.
By denying cruisers access to their
preferred cruising grounds, security,
police, and judges effectively deny
cruisers the right to benefit from the
presence and support of their fellow
community members. Orders like
these isolate individual cruisers from
potential support networks, thus
making it easier for authorities to
subordinate them.
Homophobic politicians, security
personnel, police, and judges will go
to extreme lengths to both enhance
their ability to subordinate men who
have sex with men and to mask the
homophobic motivations behind
their raids. The list of tactics above,
therefore, is not comprehensive.
Many are the undocumented and
invisible means by which police
purge public spaces of queer bodies
and sexualities.
COMPLACENCE AND
COMPLICITY
Accusations made against cruisers
using articles 173(1) and 271(1) of the
Canadian Criminal Code and under
petty municipal bylaws involve a
number of false representations,
purposeful
miscontruals,
and
homophobic
rationalizations.
Plainclothes cops make their way to
gay cruising grounds with the intent
of being touched and of having us
show them our packages. They
want to have their bodies caressed.
To construe consensual sexual
encounters like these as “indecent” or
“assault” is nothing short of perverse.
Despite this perversity, some of
the most “important”“community”
organizations in the province of
Quebec—those whose voices the state
is most likely to recognize—refuse
to speak out against homophobic
state initiatives.
Community Organizations
Cruisers are not the only
ones who have been subject to
repression within the context of
anti-‘indecency’
operations.
A
couple of years ago, two of REZO’s
outreach personnel were forced out
of Maisonneuve park by cops while
distributing condoms in a wooded
area know to attract cruisers.
Despite this, REZO has refused to
share information about the raids
with the community. More than just
refusing to warn the community,
REZO Communications Director
Alexandre
Blais
immediately
sought to depoliticize the incident
by blaming it on a few ‘bad’ cops
— this, immediately after having
been presented with police
documents revealing the existence
of multiple state projects designed
to purge parks of men who have sex
with men.
The response of the Conseil des
Gais et des Lesbiennes du Québec
is even more alarming. In 2011,
the then head of the Conseil,

Steve Foster, met with the head
of PDQ 38, Stéphane Bélanger,
to discuss the «problématique» of
cruising in Parc Lafontaine. M.
Bélanger arranged this meeting
for the purposes of asking for the
Conseil’s «collaboration en matière
d’information à transmettre à la
communauté gai». If the Conseil had
taken on this task, PDQ 38 would
have both absolved itself of the
unsavoury (politically unwise?)
task of ordering faggots not to
fuck in the park and successfully
pinkwashed its morality raids. This
is not what happened. Rather than
legitimizing the raids by accepting
an underhanded request to act as
the mouthpiece of homophobic
brutes, Mr. Foster seems to have
provided Mr. Bélanger with implicit
support he wanted by failing to
speak out loudly enough against
this initiative. The current head of
the Conseil Marie-Pier Boisvert has
simply chosen to ignore our emails.
Though seriously disappointing,
the Conseil’s response — or
lack thereof — is not nearly as
troublesome as the response of
MIELS-Québec, an organization
that provides support services to
people living with HIV-AIDS in
the Quebec City region. In 2009,
this “community” organization
partnered with the Service de Police
de la Ville de Québec for a two day
operation called Opération RendezVous. During this operation,
MIELS’ outreach worker, Philippe
De Carufel, would “bait” cruisers,
provide them with condoms and
lube, and then suggest that they take
their sexual activities elsewhere.
Once De Carufel had identified a
cruiser, police would arrive on scene
and “inform” the cruiser of potential
fines and criminal proceedings.
During this two day operation,
MIELS, using entrapment-like
tactics, actively sought to make
visible, and thus, policeable, the
sexual population whose well-being
it purportedly cares most about
— a sexual population that was
already vulnerable to illegitimate
state intervention prior to this
revolting collaboration.
“Our association with police is
interesting, because it will allow
us to inform the men that there
will be repression.” De Carufel’s
statement to the press is chillingly
similar to the instructions given
to officers conducting arrests of
men who have sex with men on
the island of Montreal a few years
later. Arresting officers performing
“anti-indecency” operations in
Angrignon Park back in 2011 were
told to “inform offenders of the
repression to come.” Rather than
engaging in the kinds of solidarity
work that would have contributed
to the well-being of men who have
sex with men, during this two-day
operation, MIELS chose to exploit
the relationship of trust it had
previously built with men who have

11

sex with men in order to engage in
precisely the kinds of threatening
talk that police would soon identify
as being key to purging parks of men
who have sex with men — talk that
can only be described as moralizing
and disciplinary.
For its part, Interligne (formerly
Gai-écoute), has simply chosen not
to respond to any of our emails.
Depoliticized, these community
organizations are of little help to
those of us who inhabit the margins
of the queer community, where
non-compliance with heterosexist
sexual norms continues to act as
justification for police violence.
CLOSING REMARKS
Testimonies of men arrested or
ticketed during stings reveal that
cops actively court their victims
by smiling at them, courting them
while sporting full-on erections,
staring at them for extended
periods of time ranging from 20
to 50 minutes, and by approaching
their victims and offering to engage
in touching of a sexual nature by
means of suggestive body language.
The truth is that plainclothes cops
play an active role in seducing their
victims. The truth is that those of us
who fail to conform to heterosexist
sexual norms are continually
made targets of illegitimate state
intervention. The truth is that
the morality raids never ended.
Most of the names and badge
numbers of the cops or security
agents performing the abovementioned operations have been
omitted to protect the identities of
the men concerned. It is important
to recognize the violence implicit in
this silencing. In order to protect the
identities of the men whose testimonies
we have shared, certain source
documents have not been made public.

Cécile Amiot &amp; Romain Hainaut / Le Délit

McGill vous regarde
Doit-on questionner la place des caméras et de la police sur le campus?
Alexandra Nadeau
Le Délit

C

ombien de caméras surveillent les étudiants de
McGill? Que penser des
interventions de la police sur le
campus? Depuis le printemps
étudiant, la place de la police
a augmenté à Montréal, et de
petites caméras de surveillances
bourgeonnent un peu partout
aux intersections stratégiques au
sein de la métropole.
L’Université McGill ne fait
pas exception à la règle. Depuis
le rapport Manfredi et la modiﬁcation au protocole de l’étudiant,
les dispositions quant au droit
de manifester sur le campus ont
changé. Comme l’explique au
Délit André Costopoulos, doyen
à la vie étudiante, les manifestations sont tolérées sur le campus
à moins qu’il y ait obstruction
d’une entrée ou d’une porte. À
partir de ce moment, McGill se
donne le droit d’intervenir.
Toutefois, comme Michelle
Hartman, professeure de littérature arabe à McGill l’explique, la
présence policière sur les campus et la surveillance découragent les étudiants à se mobiliser
et amènent un climat de peur sur
le campus. Elle croit que c’est
évident que les actions à saveur
politique sont visées par l’administration de McGill, surtout
depuis l’adoption du protocole.
Michelle est l’une des six professeurs de McGill qui a signé
la lettre il y a deux semaines qui
demande la démission de Marc
Parent et de Ian Lafrenière, respectivement directeur du Service
de police de la Ville de Montréal
(SPVM) et porte-parole du
SPVM. Cette lettre a été signée
par 120 personnes suite à l’arrestation de masse qui a eu lieu le
15 mars lors de la traditionnelle
manifestation contre la brutalité
policière.

«

Après deux avertissements, c’est clair qu’il
faut faire appel à de
l’autorité externe.»
Quand la police réplique
Au cours du dernier mois,
à deux reprises, le SPVM a été
appelé par McGill. En effet, un
message adressé aux étudiants
mcgillois informait que des policiers pourraient intervenir sur le
campus lors de la Saint-Patrick.
Aussi, la police a été appelée
pour disperser le petit groupe qui
manifestait en face des laboratoires lors de l’action organisée par
demilitarize McGill contre la recherche sur les drones de guerre.
«Ça, ça fait parti de la réponse normale de l’Université
quand il y a obstruction […]

Après deux avertissements, c’est
clair qu’il faut faire appel à de
l’autorité externe», dit André
Costopoulos . Il explique que
si la manifestation avait eu lieu
sans obstruction, il n’y aurait
pas eu de problèmes. «Des interventions policières, on en a assez
souvent», dans les résidences
aussi, mentionne-t-il. «Il y a un
taux assez constant du nombre
d’interventions par session».
André
Costopoulos
dit
toutefois que «dans le cas de la
Saint-Patrick, McGill n’a pas fait
appel à la police», mais que c’est
normal d’avoir une relation avec
eux dans le cadre de cette fête
car ils doivent veiller à la sécurité
dans la communauté de MiltonParc. «S’ils veulent patrouiller
sur le campus, on ne peut pas les
en empêcher [...] mais ce n’est
pas nécessairement parce qu’on
leur a demandé d’intervenir»,
dit-il.
«Du point de vue de l’Université, manifester ce n’est jamais un problème. La liberté
d’expression, la liberté d’assemblée à l’Université c’est fondamental comme droit […] Ce
n’est d’ailleurs pas limité par le
code de conduite de l’étudiant».
Cette intervention de la police est-elle souhaitable sur un
campus universitaire?
André Costopoulos affirme
que souvent, McGill n’a pas de
contrôle sur l’intervention de la
police sur le campus. Lorsque
c’est l’Université toutefois qui
le demande, la police peut intervenir dans les cas où il y a obstruction.
Michelle Hartman croit
qu’il y a trop d’interventions
policières sur le campus, comme
à Montréal en général. «Ça fait
à peine deux ans que la police
est venue sur le campus, a défait
une occupation, et a battu des
étudiants». Elle est préoccupée
par le fait qu’appeler la police
pour terminer les manifestations
ne fasse que dissuader les étudiants de manifester. «Je ne vois
pas pourquoi on doit avoir des
policiers qui viennent mettre ﬁn
aux manifestations étudiantes.
C’est quelque chose que je n’approuve pas».
Suzanne Fortier dit que les
étudiants ont le droit de manifester de manière paciﬁque, mais
qu’ils n’ont pas le droit de nier
les droits d’autrui. Elle dit que
les étudiants ont été avisés qu’ils
devraient quitter les lieux, mais
qu’ils ne l’ont pas fait, et qu’à ce
moment là la police a été appelée. «C’est des questions difﬁciles. […] Je crois à la liberté d’expression, c’est un droit fondamental», dit-elle. «Est-ce qu’on
aime ça appeler la police? Non,
pas du tout! Mais il faut penser
aux étudiants qui voient leur
droit d’accès dénié» conclut-elle.

Souriez, vous êtes ﬁlmés
À McGill, les caméras sont
organisées dans un système de
réseau fermé, administré par
les services de sécurité de l’université. Le protocole de McGill
sur les caméras stipule que les
caméras sont utilisées dans une
optique de sécurité de la communauté de McGill.
Toutefois, Michelle Hartman
se questionne: «Voulons-nous
vivre dans une société où nous
sommes surveillés par qui, pourquoi, pour quelles raisons? Je ne
crois pas».
André Costopoulos dit qu’à
McGill, il n’y a pas eu d’augmentation du nombre de caméras de
sécurité. «Tout est dans l’application des outils [de sécurité qui
peuvent devenir des outils de
surveillance]. Il faut s’assurer que
l’administration se sert des outils
de la bonne façon».
André Costopoulous ne sait
toutefois pas s’il y a une politique par rapport à l’utilisation des
caméras.
Et est-ce que ces caméras
sont parfois utilisées comme
preuve contre les étudiants?
En réponse à cela, André
Costopoulos dit que «s’il y a
une allégation relative au code
de conduite étudiante, n’importe
quelle preuve peut être amenée
par l’équipe disciplinaire par rapport à ça. […] Le comité décidera
si c’est une preuve valable».

«

Ils savent qui sont les
étudiants, ils savent quel
est votre nom, où vous
allez [...] Il y a ce genre
de détails dans les rapports.»

votre nom, où vous allez […] Il y
a ce genre de détails dans les rapports». Elle croit qu’il faut vraiment se questionner sur la place
des caméras au sein de McGill.
Antoine S. Christin, un étudiant de l’Université de Montréal,
avait demandé en 2012 à l’Université McGill de lui fournir des enregistrements vidéos car il s’était
fait arrêté par le Service de police
de Montréal en face du portail de
l’Université. L’étudiant aurait eu
besoin de cette preuve pour justiﬁer une arrestation abusive faite à
son égard par le policier Dominic
Chartier lors d’une manifestation
dans le cadre de la grève étudiante. La responsable de la sécurité
de McGill avait alors refusé de lui
donner les enregistrements, en
spéciﬁant que cette information
ne pouvait lui être fournie parce
qu’exclusive aux policiers ou au
corps de justice.
Est-ce que les caméras de
surveillances sont donc vraiment un moyen efﬁcace d’assurer la sécurité des gens observés?
Michelle Hartman dit qu’elle ne
se sent pas plus en sécurité parce
qu’il y a des caméras de sécurité.
André Costopoulos dit que
«À l’Université, on peut et on
doit tout questionner. Donc si
quelqu’un veut apporter une
question au Sénat ou dans un des
corps administratifs à McGill, il
devrait le faire, et puis il va y avoir
réponse à la question, c’est pas un
problème».
À l’UQAM, cela fait maintenant presque deux ans que les
étudiants se mobilisent contre la
présence de caméras au sein de
l’Université. Simon Larochelle,

exécutant sur l’association étudiante de science politique et
droit, explique au Délit que ce
n’est pas nouveau qu’il y ait des
caméras à l’UQAM, cela fait depuis les années 1990 qu’on en
retrouve. Toutefois, c’est récemment, suite à la grève étudiante en
2012, que le café Aquin et ses corridors avoisinants se sont vus fermer, des endroits reconnus pour
abriter des étudiants et des associations politiquement engagés.
«C’est là qu’on a vu le nombre de
nouvelles caméras de surveillance
augmenter», «elles ont été installées dans le périmètre, à l’extérieur
de celui-ci et un peu partout dans
l’UQAM». C’est à ce moment
qu’une campagne contre les caméras de sécurité s’est entamée.
«On a fait face vraiment à une offensive de l’UQAM», poursuit-il.
À l’UQAM, on ne voit plus
cela comme des caméras de «sécurité» mais carrément comme
des caméras de «surveillance»,
explique Simon. Les étudiants se
sentent plutôt surveillés, voire espionnés, car ça empiète sur la protection de leur vie privée. «C’est
une façon détournée de surveiller
et de dissuader l’activité politique
et syndicale étudiante», explique Simon. En effet, les caméras
ont été placées stratégiquement.
L’administration a le plein pouvoir sur ce qui est recueilli par les
caméras, et il n’y a pas de politique
de gestion de ces caméras. «Le
service de sécurité de l’UQAM a
aussi la possibilité d’installer des
caméras cachées, sans devoir rendre des comptes à ce sujet», poursuit-il. Le débat entre sécurité et
éthique n’est donc pas résolu. x

Michelle Hartman ne comprend pas pourquoi il doit y avoir
des caméras sur le campus. Elle
dit que les caméras sont utilisées
par les gardes de sécurité pour
ﬁlmer les étudiants et d’autres
personnes lors des manifestations et qu’ils en rédigent ensuite des rapports. «J’ai vu les
rapports qui relatent ce que les
étudiants font sur le campus. Ce
n’est pas une question, c’est un
fait [que McGill surveille les étudiants, les professeurs et d’autre
personnes]», dit-elle. «Il y a des
étudiants qui ont eu des charges
disciplinaires portées contre eux,
et ce sont des preuves vidéos qui
ont été utilisées contre ces personnes […] Il y a des exemples
[…] qui étaient dans le rapport
de sécurité: ‘’l’étudiant X était
avec l’étudiant Y et faisait telle
chose. Et ce n’est pas seulement
l’étudiant X dont on parle, mais
toutes ces autres personnes impliquées». «Ils savent qui sont
les étudiants, ils savent quel est

                    <text>Aller- mav shut
down evenings
by Linda Gyulai
Ever been in the 'Alley' at night
and felt the stare of a bartender who
has nothing to do? Customers and
money arc scarce commodities in
the Alley lateIy, and so is conccns us
on what to do about this.
Last wcekthenumberofwaiters
and waitresses serving the Alley,
McGill's student cafe/bar/painfully 'cool' hang-out, was halved.
Now there is debate as to
whether or not the Alley should
close down at night due to slow
business.
"We'd like it to be closed at
night," admitted Deborah Mica,
Assistant Director at CVC
(McG ill's food and beverages service). "It won't be sudden," she said,
"We can't close yet, we have to get
together with the Students' Society
to decide. Personally, I don't think
it will be this semester."
Students' Society (SSMU)
councillor Chris Tramp said CVC
director Ralph Waiters had men-

tioned closing the Alley nights.
Tramp also affirmed that the Alley
would remain open nights at least
until the end of the school year.
"We [Tramp and Waiters] were
discussif'!g the idea of groups using
the Alley for a fee, but he talked
constantly about the costs of operating at night. He hinted he didn't
want to keep it open anymore at
night," said Tramp.
According to Waiters, "that's
not true. It's business as usual, for
the time being anyway."
SSMU VP Internal Amanda
Kalhok also denied that the Alley
would be shutting down its nocturnal operation.
"There arc no plans to do that
all," said Kalhok. "We have looked
at ways to make the Alley a better
place. We have looked into music
and entertainment. Butthere 's been
no talk of closing it in the evenings," she said.
"The Alley is very popular during the daytime," said Tramp. "My
inclination is to believe that it's rea-

According to Clubs representative to Council Freya Kodar, the
Coalition was formed last Novembcr"to increase peoples' awareness

the Coalition.

McGill Legal Aid Director
Annettc Lefebvre says Legal Aid
gets at least one case of sexual
assault or harassment every week.
Constable Serge Roi of Station
25, the precinct which covers the
McGill area, confirmed seven
reported rapes in theghettoin 1987.
But police estimate only one in ten
rapes is reported. This means the
number of attacks could be as high
as70.
Visible, unifonned guards on
campus are supposed to give
students a sense of security. But
according to SSMU VP University
Affairs Maria Battaglia's
September 21 report to Council,
security guards can do virtually
nothing in a volatile situation. They
can only "attempt ... to identify the
parties involve&lt;\_ and have the
participants surrender their McGill
1.0. cards, should the assailant be a
McGill student.
The inability of McGill security
guards to effectively intervene in
on-campus conflict was shown last
week in the peeping tom incident.
The same unwillingness was
demonstrated last year when
violent intruders interrupted the
Gay and Lesbian Film Night. The
security guard handed the phone to
one of the organizers and told him
to phone the senior officers himself.
Another guard later complained to
his union that he was asked to
interfere.
When faced with resistance,
security guards are instructed to
"never use a physical approach
under any circumstances".
According to the report, "local
authorities will not be called in
under any circumstances... without
frrst consulting one of the Security
Staff."
Under these conditions, police
inevitably arrive too late.

continued from page 1
In light of the ineffectiveness of
existing
security,
the
recommendations contained within
the Student Society pamphlet
"Security at McGill"
are
unsatisfactory. The pamphlet

addresses problems of theft and
vandalism, but fails to mention the
more serious problem of sexual
assault. Unfortunately it continues
to advocate that students phone
McGill security, who "will contact
MUC Police if required".

Several independent campus
organizations have stepped in to fill
the gap in security. In an attempt to
find out how widespread the
problem is at McGill, Legal Aid is
establishing a special Sexual
Assault

Committee in order to compile
statistics.
Even more ambitious, the
Coalition Against Sexual Assault
hopes to establish a Sexual Assault

Constable Roi stated that the
police respond to calls placed from
the McGill campus just as they do
calls from anywhere elsepromptly, and without waiting for
a request from McGill security.
"There is no special sexual assualt
unit," he stated."A person placing a
call, whether having witnessed an
assualt or having been the victim of
one, will deal with the officer on
duty."

According to Angcla Bolt of the
Sexual Assault Centre, "the
Montreal police force are variable
to deal with. In general there has
been an improvement over the last
eight years. They arc much more
sympathetic."
Annette LcFebvre of McGill
Legal Aid agrees. "The response of
the officers is variable. The main
difficulty victims encounter is the
atmosphere of the police station. It
often vcrv difficult smct
,humiliating for the victim to
publieally state that an assault has
taken place."
Notwithstanding, she urges all
victims of sexual assualt to contact
the police immediately even if
under the influence. Although
alcohol or drug consumption
complicates pressing charges,
reporting the assault immediately
demonstrates the serious nature of
the event. "The victim's credibility

avant.
LD:Est-ce que vous avez choisi de travailler de nuit?
RB: Oui et non. J'ai travillé pendant un
certain temps de jour et puis, j'ai été transféré au quart de muit.J'espère me pas travailler
de nuit toute ma vie.
Quels sont les avantages

RB: Les avantages, c'est le transport. 1l 'y à
personne sur la route. Les inconvénients,
Clest que ce n'est pas une vie normale de
travailler la nuit et de dormir le jour. J'ai
entendu un jour un médecin, un spéciaiste,
dire que lêtre humain était fait pour dormir
I nuit, dans le nocturne et vivre le jour,à ln
clarté.

RB: Je travaille de muit depuis 17 ans, mais
j'ai travailé de jour pendant un temps et
quand je suis retourné sur le quart de nuit,
cela a été pas mal diffcile pour ma femme.
(D'ailleurs orsquon en discute avec sa fille
elle nous dit que dans son enfance, il y à eu
peu d'activités familiales où cous étaient présents. Pour ce faire, tout doit être prévu d'avance en fonction de l'horaire de nuit. N
n'en demeure pas moins qu’elle a d'excellents souvenirs de sorties avec son père:baseball, La Ronde, etc)

LD: Racontez une anecdote nocturne
qui vous est arrivée.
RB: Et bien, une fois, alors que j'étais seul
dans le magasin, quelqu'un a brisé une fenêtre pour venir voler des cigarettes Je ne sais
pas comment il a pu faire pour penser que le
magasin était vide. I y avait des autos dans le
stationnement et les lumières étaient allumées à la grandeur du magasin…
Difficile de savoir si vraiment tous les chats
sont gris la nuit, mais la prochaine fois que
vous irez à l’épicerie, par contre, ayez donc
une petite pensée pour tous ces gens qui travaillent de nuit afin qu'au grand jour, le
monde vous semble en ordre. ©

criminalité était en hausse dans les environs
du campus. Plurôt que de mettre à jour les

décidé de vous laisser juger de l'intensité du
1ger qui plane sur le campus et de vous
mhèse des alternatives, au
niveau sécurité. qui s'ofrent à vous.
Tout étudiant peut d'abord profiter des
servicesofferts par l'AÉUM. Parmi ceux-ci
MeGil Walkafe vient sans doute en tête de
liste
t par 'entremise de
patrouilles qui sillonnent le campus et ses
environs de 20 h à mimait du dimanche au
mercredi et de 20 h à 2 h du jeudi au samedi. Les patrouills, composées d'étudiant,
sont reconnaisables 3 leur manteau rouge
arborant le logo Walksafe au dos, Elles sont

également munies de radios qui leur servent
de lien avec le coordonnateur qui reçoit les
appels d'assistance. Lorganisme fait son travail avec sérieux et les patrouilles sont donc
bien préparéesà faire face à une panoplie de
situation. Par exemple, toutes les patrouilles
incluent une flle (pour faire face aux problèmes que seul ce sexe peut comprendre,
explique e site web) e tous les patrouilleurs
reçoivent également une formation pour
faire face aux cas dagresions sexuelles et
pour répondre aux sensibiltés homosexuels,
i vous croyez plutôt que le danger peut
venir de votre propre personne, ou de celle
de votre ami qui à trop bu pour conduire,
‘ilisez les services de MeGill Drivesafe. Cet
organisme offfe gratuitement un service
d'accompagnement jusqu'à votre domicile
ou une station de métro. Il vous suffit de
vous rendre au départ de navettes devant le
centre étudiant Shatner pour en profiter. Si
vous étiez venu en voiture, McGill Drivesafe
vous offre de stationner votre véhicule gratuitement sur le campus.
Si vous avez le malheurde fire face à
des dangers plus important, la sécurité de
l’université et le Service de police de laVille

de Montréal (SPVM) sont sans doute
des alternatives à considérer, Pour ce qui
es de lasécurité de l’université, elle présente une dichotomie intéressante. Alors
que les cols blancs sont des employés de
Tuniversi, les gardes comme tels sont
des employés d'une entreprise privée,en
Toccurrence Garda. Cette situation ne
semble pas avoir un impact négatf surla
sécurité megilloise qui adopte une
approche proactive face à la sécurité. Par
exemple, elle propose aux étudiants une
carte des routes es plus sûres la it dans
les environs du campus. Cette dernière
comporte également plusieurs autres
renseignements, comme l’emplacement
des téléphones d’urgence et des postes
o des gardes de sécurité sont présents en
tout temps.
Un poste de quartier du SPVM, le
maméro 19, se sîtue dans le ghetto de
MeGill, sur la rue Prince-Arthar.
L'asistance policière est donc à porté de
main sur le campus, d'autant plus que les
téléphones d'urgence de l'université vous
permettentde composerle 9-1-1 (en autant
que vous çomposiez préalablementle
9 pour
faire un appel 3 l'extérieur,ce qui donne ke

9-9-1-1). Si vous n’êtes pas certain que la
présence de la police soit requise, appelez la
sécurité de McGill, qui se chargera, le cas
échéant, de contacter le SPVM.
Que le campus soit plus risqué la nuit
depuis un certain temps 0u que ce soitsimplement une impression, une panoplie de
ressources sont disponibles pour assurer la
sécurité des étudiants. N'hésitez pas à les
vélier. ©
