Montreal Police Accountability Meeting | Calgary News

Published 3 weeks ago
Description

Montreal police face mounting pressure as they prepare to unveil the full scope of a damning scandal at Station 39, where 16 officers are under investigation for racist and hateful conduct targeting Black and Arab communities — leading to the unit’s complete disbandment. Community leaders, lawyers, and residents demand accountability, transparency, and real change, citing alarming disparities in policing: Black people stopped four times more often, Arab people five times more than white residents. With no criminal charges filed yet but ongoing legal consultations, the SPVM is holding a public forum — live and streamed — to answer questions and outline next steps, including calls for civilian oversight, an independent review board, and a formal apology to those harmed. This is not just another meeting — it’s a pivotal moment to rebuild trust or risk further erosion of community faith.
