On the 10th Annual International Day Against Police Brutality
Thursday March 15th
4:00pm
College and Lansdowne
Every day OCAP works hand in hand with communities that have been under attack by the Police. Under attack because they are poor, homeless, people of colour, First Nations or new immigrants. Under attack because it is the job of the police to maintain the power of the wealthy and upper class. When we struggle to improve our lives and the lives of our children and communities, it is these same police that attack us and keep us beaten down.
March 15th 2007 marks the 10th Anniversary of the International Day Against Police Brutality. A day to bring awareness to the violence, torture, intimidation and harassment inflicted on citizens' by our governments' Police Forces.

The City gives more money to police than they do to our kids' recreation centre and programs. The kids are just sitting around with nothing to do, meanwhile they get harrassed by the cops.

Across the City of Toronto poor communities are feeling the full weight of the Toronto Police. They have gunned down Jeffrey Reodica, they have launched para-millitary assaults in the North End of the City, they have kicked in the windows of Alexandra Park, they have brutally assaulted people in east-end parks and all the while the Mayor of our City has given them a pat on the back.
