Thank you for the opportunity.
In my opinion, some of the things said today answer part of the question. I'm also going to send you some documentation.
Having said that, three things come to mind. First, as much as possible, we must take away the police's power to do lethal physical harm. If an officer does not need a firearm, they should not carry one, even for stops and searches. The rules governing stop and search are unclear. The Commission des droits de la personne et des droits de la jeunesse du Québec recommends doing away with stop and search practices in Quebec. Some jurisdictions have done so. Things are unclear in the rest of Canada.
Second, funds must be reinvested elsewhere. I have already brought that up.
Third, we need to ensure that the police play a community role, as citizens.
I can send some documentation about it.
