The City of Montreal will pay more than $3 million to hundreds of protestors whose rights were violated by city police.

The law firm representing class members said earlier this week in a court-approved notice that the city will also publish an apology on its website acknowledging that “certain actions” by city police and the municipal administration violated protestors fundamental rights.
