#Black #MiddleEastern people again more likely to face #Ottawa #police force
Black people — approximately 8% of Ottawa's population in 2021 census — were over-represented at 3.1 times their share in the use-of-force numbers.
Despite Middle Eastern people only making up 6% of Ottawa's population in 2021, they comprised 10% of use-of-force reports, with 28 people from that background subjected to force in 2022. #PoliceBrutality #BlackMastodon #BlackFedi #racism #Canada
