Toronto police pay $16.5m to protesters wrongfully held at 2010 G20 summit

It's not as if the police are paying anything. The city of Toronto will pay $16M in compensation resulting from the behavior of its police department.

Should take it out of Stephan Harper (et al.) pensions.

Funny (not really) that Bill Blair is the Minister of Public Safety now.

Is 10 years the normal time it takes for such an outcome?
