## Resource

Quebec’s communities are demanding a full public inquiry into systemic racism and racial profiling in police forces after shocking allegations in Montreal—including officers allegedly collecting human hair and issuing tickets based on ethnicity—prompting investigations into 16 officers, two of whom face criminal recommendations. Advocates argue these aren’t isolated incidents, citing past discrimination and a deep erosion of trust, especially among Black youth, and insist Montreal police can’t investigate themselves. While the police chief agrees to meet with groups, the union calls the claims isolated and favors swift internal action. The provincial government hasn’t ruled out a public inquiry, but community leaders insist transparency and dialogue are urgently needed to rebuild faith in law enforcement.
