Halifax Regional Police, the municipality and the Nova Scotia government have all apologised to the African Nova Scotian communities for racialized policing known as street checks. In 2019 a report said data from HRP showed black civilians were disproportionately affected by the policy. This week, the joint policing partners in HRM announced they won't be offering an apology. In this conversation, we hear from District 15 councillor Lisa Blackburn discusses the RCMP's decision and the ongoing independent review of the joint policing model.
