L'ACLC, Hoodstock, la Clinique juridique de Saint-Michel et la Ligue des droits et libertés ont écrit hier à la première ministre du Québec pour lui demander officiellement de déclencher une commission d'enquête publique sur le racisme policier et le profilage racial au sein du SPVM.

« Le SPVM et les institutions policières en général n’ont pas le détachement nécessaire pour remettre en question les pratiques et la culture qui ont permis aux problématiques de racisme et de profilage racial de perdurer au SPVM. Seule une commission d’enquête publique disposant d’une indépendance complète peut remédier au bris de confiance actuel de la population vis-à-vis le SPVM », déclare Anaïs Bussières McNicoll, Porte-parole Québec et directrice des Libertés fondamentales à l'ACLC.

CCLA, Hoodstock, the Saint-Michel Legal Clinic and the Ligue des droits et libertés wrote to the Premier of Quebec yesterday to formally request a public inquiry commission into police racism and racial profiling within the SPVM.

‘The SPVM and police institutions in general lack the necessary detachment to challenge the practices and culture that have allowed racism and racial profiling to persist within the SPVM. Only a fully independent public inquiry commission can address the current breakdown of public trust in the SPVM,” says Anaïs Bussières McNicoll, Quebec spokesperson and director of fundamental freedoms at the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.
