Police have used a little-used bylaw against race-hate pamphlets against anti-sweatshop activists protesting outside the Nike store. The bylaw prohibits the distribution of pamphlets without a permit, and has been enforced at the police's discretion (e.g., when the pamphleteers are neo-Nazis, or when an influential corporation's public image is at stake).
