In a new National Post column, Chris Selley examines the strikingly low rate at which criminal charges tied to anti-Israel protest activity in Canada are ultimately proceeded with in court. Citing publicly available data and examples from recent protests, the article notes that the vast majority of protest-related charges since October 7 have been dropped, stayed, or resolved without conviction.
The piece also references case tracking by ALCCA, which has monitored outcomes in these cases and identified only a small number of convictions linked to protest-related incidents.
