<p>A list of protests, demonstrations and events being tracked by Ottawa was released today after Nova Scotia MP, Scott Brison requested data from the Public Safety Canada department.</p>
<p>The list shows the date of the event, a short summary of the event and the source doing the tracking which includes several Federal departments, the RCMP and media articles.</p>
<p>While hundreds of events have been tracked in Canada, various Federal departments have also kept tabs on events in foreign countries as well.</p>
<p>While the majority of demonstrations being tracked inOntario are related to first-nations actions or blockades, a number of other Toronto events have been tracked including:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Tibetan protests</strong></li>
<li>Greenpeace actions</li>
<li>Student protests</li>
<li>Protests around Omar Khadr</li>
<li>Pro-Palestinian demonstrations</li>
<li>Tamil rights demonstrations</li>
<li>Protests against City-Budget cuts</li>
<li>Enbridge Pipelines</li>
<li>Occupy Toronto</li>
<li>Tar sands talks</li>
</ul>
<p>A few anti-Muslim protests were also tracked though the vast majority are progressive or leftist events.</p>
<p>The list tracks protests from January 2006 to June 2014, though it has obvious gaps or unlisted surveillance.</p>
<p>No G20 related events are listed.</p>
<p><em>The list is available for download at the bottom of this page.</em></p>
