## Resource

Alberta’s Minister of Public Safety sent a blunt letter urging police to prioritize violent crime over policing speech — but First Nations officers like Bradley Twin of Lakeshore Regional Police Service pushed back hard. Twin reminded the minister that Indigenous communities have endured decades of government overreach and don’t need lectures on “hurt feelings.” He emphasized that his officers are already tackling opioid crises, organized crime, and violence — not social media complaints — and there’s no such thing as a “hurt feelings unit” due to lack of funding and staffing. His response wasn’t an attack, but a call for real solutions: stable, long-term funding to recruit and retain officers, and resources to combat the drug epidemic — far more effective than a letter about free speech.
