Canadian Tire Goon Squad

TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE: Even for Burnaby, BC 
 I have, over the years, like so many Canadians, spent thousands of dollars in their ubiquitous stores.   I confess, I was there yesterday.  

But handcuffs, chokeholds... I will never set foot in Canadian Tire again..

All that's missing here are the "brown shirts."  You can see the victim being choked out as his face turns progressively redder.  He tells the five man goon squad that he can't breathe... listen to their smug reply.

Obviously there's a huge lawsuit in the making here.

Here's my questions... what would have happened next, if, say... they had choked out a Black guy?  What about a woman?

Oh, yeah... 30 years ago, Ontario banned the use of chokeholds for police in the province.

DOES THIS GRIND YOUR GEARS?

Let the folks at the Corporate Offices know how you feel.

UPDATE:  Dudley DoRight does wrong... 

Store security told police they were going to escort the man off the premises, but you can see they had handcuffs out in the video.insert alt text here
"Mounties arrested the man, and Burnaby RCMP is now investigating the incident."
UPDATE2: Twitter hides video behind 'view' button
"The following media includes potentially sensitive content."
Hmmm... has Twitter hidden those millions of George Floyd videos?
