This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Systemic racism in policing in Canada is a real and pressing problem to be urgently addressed, the House of Commons public safety committee says in a report released on Thursday.

The committee report says that Ottawa must substantially increase funding for the CRCC to ensure sufficient resources to examine complaints. There must be changes, including the creation of statutory timelines for responses by the RCMP Commissioner to CRCC reports, the report adds. “Yet across the country, many police services insist that a police officer must be the first one to enter a unit when responding to a mental health crisis or request for a wellness check, even when a mental health worker is available and there is no known safety threat,” the NDP’s report says.

Who would be so stupid to carry a sign “Abolish the Police”. Come on people give you head a f’n shake! Would you really prefer a completely lawless society. Where you never have to worry about police again. Just the lowlives coming to rob and rape you or your kids.

You mean systematic since systemic is related to biology.

Why is everyone so racist ? Is it because they want to be better than the next ? Well you're not so get over it !

This Parliamentary report shows how the mediocrity of 'cancel culture' is fashionable and corrosive, just about everywhere.

Abolish the police? They provide essential services in a civilized society with laws to control crime. Let's spend money on hiring, training, retraining so we have responsible people serving us, all of us.

We used to debate education, healthcare, the environment. The woke debate has bullied the media into only talking about the systemic racism “deeply rooted” in the “White ugly” majority. Repent and apologize for your sins everyone!!, even if you are the most open minded around

Bet most readers would be surprized by this info from the US. My guess is that the 'systemic' part of racism in policing is not well understood and maybe 'systemic' is a misreprestation of reality.

I want each member of this committee to give us an example as to where they demonstrated sysytemic racism. Go ahead! Tell us! Expose yourselves on bended knee and ask for our forgiveness!

BS to the tenth degree. This is Canada not the US. There many people of all colors, ethnicities & genders which part of all in the city, provincial and federal police forces in Canada for it to be systemic racing in policing and Canada.

Report website:

Abolish the police you say. And if one of your family members is murdered ( God for bid. ) your going to find and arrest the murder? I know there's problems with police, but think it won't hurt.

Nope

MPs study of systemic racism in policing concludes RCMP needs new modelIt's time for Canada to have a 'reckoning' about the RCMP, says the chair of a House of Commons committee that studied systemic racism in policing. Let's make the police force majority black then see how long it takes for white ppl to burn down the country. What a joke 😂 So the RCMP was racist from its founding up through the present day, as per the federal goverment. What exactly makes them think it can be reformed, when it hasn't ever had a time when it wasn't racist? Scrap the entire org and start from scratch.
