ATTENTIONN Montrealers are you registered to vote? god I hate making these posts I’ll translate one of many of the promises projet mtl are making because I really think you should vote even if you’re an anglo living in montreal because whatever right anyways 1.19: Develop a police culture that is more respectful of citizen rights a) Adopt a more ambitious equal access program (EAP) to make the SPVM a police force that more fully reflects the cultural diversity of the montreal population; b) Revise the mass deployment policy of police troops during large gatherings (protests and others); c) Ban the use of plastic projectiles during protests; d) Require that police officers adequately follow the rules when engaging to fire. Ensure that adequate training is given and that the senior directors of the SPVM makes it a clear priority; e) Reinforce policies that aim to reduce racial and social profiling by partnering with the affected communities. bonus if those points didn’t convince you; they’re anti dog breed profiling and mass dog euthanizations too (i wish this wasn’t the second strongest point on their platform btw)
