Black, Indigenous Peoples likely to have little to no trust in police: Statistics Canada

It’s been over seven years since an Indigenous man from Regina was wrongfully arrested with excessive force.

On Dec. 10, 2014, Simon Moccasin experienced what he calls “racism within a system” after officers of the Regina Police Service (RPS) stopped him while he was walking near the casino.

The officers were searching for a robbery suspect and even though Moccasin said he did not match the description, he was arrested anyway.
