Canadian Policing: Why and How It Should Change Roach Kent
Canadian Policing: Why and How It Must Change is a comprehensive and critical examination of Canadian policing from its colonial origins to its response to the February 2022 blockades and occupations. Multiple accountability measures -- criminal investigations, Charter litigation, complaints, and discipline -- have not improved Canadian policing. Police shootings in June 2020 should dispel any complacency that Canada does not face similar policing problems as the United States, and a vicious circle of overpolicing and underprotection plagues many intersecting disadvantaged groups.
Governance should respect law enforcement independence and discretion while rejecting overbroad claims of police operational independence and What is required is more active and proactive governance by the boards, councils, and ministers that are responsible for Canada's police.
