32% of people in federal prison are Indigenous (5% of general pop.), 50% of incarcerated women are Indigenous. Indigenous people face use of force, max. security, segregation, suicide more often; don't get statutory release or parole and recidivism is "off the charts."

Replying to @JustinTrudeau
@JustinTrudeau @PattyHajdu @OgichidaaKav Today a young First Nations man died in Onigaming. 911 was called. The ambulance parked at the edge of our reserve + wouldn't come help. As his family provided chest compressions, the paramedics let this young man die. This is racism. – at Sabaskong Bay 35D, Ontario

So incredibly excited that @TAIBU_CHC Executive Director and @AllianceON Board Chair has had a street named after him. Of all the people in the world it is so deserving and fantastic that Liben is being honored this way.

1/ Yesterday's Toronto Police race-based data release, showing disproportionate rates and impacts of violent policing on Black and Indigenous people is not new information. Years of delay and inaction mean that systems haven't changed: cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/o… #ONhealth #ONpoli

Black person in Toronto 20 times more likely than white person to be fatally shot by police: report...

A Black person in Toronto is nearly 20 times more likely than a white person to be shot and killed by police, according to a new Ontario Human Rights Commission report on race and policing.

A big day for mental health & for the Black community. The launching of a mental health crisis team that will respond without the police honours & respects the lives of Andrew Loku, Regis Korchinsky Paquet and the many others who lost their lives during a mental health crisis.
