Defunding the police: Ensuring that Police can be the last resort, not the first.
There are many situations in which only police can provide the peace, order and good government every Canadian wants, which is why all Canadians need to know they’re served by fair, impartial and unbiased officers.
But public safety is always about more than just police. As the Peel Principles of Policing put it, “the test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder, not the visible evidence of police action in dealing with them.”
Rethinking Canadian policing to make it so that police are not always the first call, but in many situations, the last resort? It’s a good idea.
