First Nations Leadership Council Supports the Families of First Nation Victims Killed by Police and Calls for a Nation-Wide State of Emergency: bit.ly/3C4IF4N Hugh Braker, FNS political executive member said, "The lack of action by governments to implement proposed solutions will only lead to more of our citizens being injured or dying at the hands of police. The time for action, including the fulsome implementation of the National and BC First Nations Justice Strategies, is now. Our communities can’t wait on the sidelines while our citizens continue to die at the hands of police across this country.” #bcpoli #cdnpoli #canadianpolitics

Do you know about Indigenous Justice Centres? IJCs provide culturally aware access to justice, legal services, aunties, outreach workers, and more, and aim to address root causes of interactions with the criminal justice or family welfare systems. @BCFNJC

Dale Culver’s family attended court last month w/ a courtroom filled with police. They felt overwhelmed & intimated, so if you’re in Prince George tomorrow, please stand with them as they learn the outcome of the obstruction charges against officers Cruz & Dalman. #justicefordale

The "police accountability" system in so-called B.C. is failing Indigenous Peoples, while they are overpoliced and underprotected. We must stand in solidarity with Indigenous families demanding justice. Learn more and take action: pivotlegal.org/impacted_fami…

Coupled with low charge approval rate from BC Crown Prosecutions Services, (2019-2024 only 18 out of the 39 cases referred by the IIO to Crown for charges were actually approved, and not a single case where officers contested the charges has resulted in a conviction)...

Indigenous people are 10x more likely to be shot and killed by police than white people. Even though Indigenous people make up only 5% of the population, they represent approximately 40% of those fatally shot by RCMP and other police forces.
