On World Press Freedom Day, the Montreal Police have not dropped charges against a journalist whose only crime was reporting.

In April, Savanna Craig was arrested while covering a blockade at Scotiabank, protesting their investments in Isreal defense company, Elbit Ltd. Savanna was present to document the blockade as a journalist and clearly identified herself as one.

According to the 2023 World Press Freedoms Report:

1. Canada ranks 15th out of 180 countries.

2. 80 percent of Canadian media is owned by five corporations.

3. Reporters have been arrested while covering protests advocating for Indigenous rights sovereignty

4. Trust in Canadian media has declined

5. Online harassment has increased, especially for women and minority journalists

Thank you to everyone who has shown their support for Savanna over the past month. We are truly grateful for the kind words and solidarity that you’ve shown us! Let’s keep up the fight to ensure news remains democratic by continuing to hold police and politicians to account!

04/17/2024

Yesterday, on April.15th, our lead journalist Savanna Craig was arrested while covering a protest that was part of the April 15 “Day of Action to Free Palestine” at a Scotiabank near the McGill campus in Montreal.

Activists were blockading Scotiabank to protest their investments in Israeli defense contractor Elbit Systems Ltd.

She was clearly identified as a journalist. She complied with police requests to move, and continued documenting the action. She showed each officer her press pass, and was carrying equipment marked as the property of CUTV. At one point, a higher-ranking officer was consulted and told about her press credentials. That official, knowing she was a journalist, ordered the officers on the scene to move forward with the arrest and charges.

This incident is likely a violation of Section 7 of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and an example of a bigger problem in Canada. In a variety of situations, police have arrested freelance journalists working for smaller publications covering protests and mobilizations.

The surveillance, targeting and intimidation of journalists has been particularly noticeable when it comes to coverage of Israeli military actions. Whether it’s systemic restrictions on journalists in Canada or the targeted killing of journalists by Israeli forces in Gaza, we have an obligation to stand up for the ability of journalists to inform the public.

To support Savanna Craig and ensure that her criminal charges get lifted, please share this post to help advocate for freedom of press! We must not remain silent and complicit when the SPVM arrest journalists for doing their jobs.

The full statement will be available on our website tomorrow, Wednesday, April. 17th.
