will look at modernizing police structures and “updating standards regarding the use of force,” he said.
A reporter noted Singh’s rare praise for Trump on the issue and asked if the summer work plan will involve specific instructions to ministers regarding the RCMP and police brutality. “As I’ve said, we need to end systemic racism in this country and that includes looking carefully at what happens in our police forces and changing the protocols and ways that our police forces operate,” Trudeau said, adding that Blair will work with partners to bring “substantive changes to how policing is delivered across the country.”was also invited to share his thoughts on the Rideau Hall incident during a press conference in Ottawa Monday morning.
“Being in public life is a tremendous sacrifice and there are so many challenges that every elected official goes through, especially the person who occupies the office of prime minister,” he said. “Nobody should have to have any kind of fear for themselves or their family, and I just want to send my sentiments of support to Justin Trudeau and his family.
“All I can say is that in Canada we have the wonderful gift that our ancestors purchased for us through loss of life and great sacrifice that we get to take action at the ballot box,” Scheer said. “And when people are upset with different levels of government, that is the only appropriate course of action.”
He's just saying what any intelligent person worh common sense think. If this guy was Native or a POC, we'd be talking about a death rather than arrest of a white domestic terrorist
Singh then added that if his aunt had balls she’d be his uncle. cdnpoli
Manufactured narrative is just that a manufactured narrative. And to turn around and accuse professional officers in this manner is unprofessional
This guy is a racist and will go down in history as the weakest NDP leader ever.
Prove it
I wonder how he would describe this one? Oh wait, doesn’t fit the narrative
I say it too
Probably so.
That is an incredibly slanderous comment with absolutely no evidence pointing to the involved officers. I’d be pursuing a lawsuit if I were them. Someone please encourage this man to shut up!
The incident was orchestrated by the LPC to draw attention away from the 10,000 + march on parliament the day before condemning Trudeau, what !you didn’t know about that? MSM earned their pay last week for sure.
I actually liked him when he first started as leader even though I don’t support NDP, but boy what a disappointment he has become. A true leader doesn’t make statements like this. It is meant to divide and I don’t believe true at all.
So due to the lack of actual racial incidents in Canada yesterday. Singh decides to try and make one up. Justin must be so proud to see how far you’ve come.
He just might be right...
WTF? Playing race to your advantage? Shameful!
Reimagine a situation and then use that imagined event to support your case. If he talk about real situations he just might be able to save his party.
THE NDP LEADER Plays his race card. Poor guy... trying very hard not to be overlooked! Poor NDP... trying very hard not to appear irrelevant! cdnpoli hw
That is a very presumptive statement.
Different reasons for response, different police forces, (likely) different particulars throughout. Hard to put these apples and oranges in the same basket with one label, theJagmeetSingh.
Wow! Every angle turns out to be race related. I'm a brown gal, don't be trying to sell me this crap.
Only Jagmeet Singh could find the racist angle to a PEACEFUL arrest. He really should try to get out more.
Wut?
Here we go again. Singh with more racist comments. This guy is a 1 trick pony. Someone should tell him that all engagements with police don’t end like George Floyd. What a narrow minded, divisive leader.
Calling BULLSHIT Singh! What it shows me is that good police officers negotiated a de-escalation of a heavily armed man who would have been blown to pieces had he not talked it out and surrendered. Call it what it is, no matter what the color of his skin. Excellent police work!
Lol. Singh... ur not relevant! Thank you.
What the hell r u talking about Singh? Doesn't even make sense. Here is a quarter go to Walmart get ur self a clue
Yep pretty much had enough of this guys politics.....
The only thing this shows is that Singh can't think for himself
If the person was Indigenous they probably would have been shot. That’s just how our country has worked. He’s not incorrect, at least when you look at facts. Now maybe we got smarter in a week, but given the comments doubt it.
how can one compare it or state 'systemic racism' if someone goes without a struggle to someone refusing to obey or comply to going quietly this Clown is a GOOF
It shows that the guy came to his senses and gave up without violence against the police. A good choice. Yes it turned out well for the RCMP this time around.
I was not there and the full account has not been disclosed as of yet, but generally, if you don’t threaten police, they don’t need to use force. That could, arguably I’m sure, be one reason for the peaceful arrest. Just saying
