C-IRG is a specially trained section of the RCMP, established in 2017, who are responsible for intervening in conflicts between local communities and industry in British Columbia. By 2022, the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP had received over 500 complaints in areas where C-IRG is active.

We speak with front-line activist Molly Murphy and law prof Irina Ceric of the Abolish C-IRG coalition.
