"That's not the image I have of our police." The committee hearings were born out of the alarming rise in Islamophobia in Canada, said Sen. Nur said Black, Muslim women need a hearing of their own because they have largely been left out of consultations to address the violence. Black, Muslim women have been the target of a string of verbal and physical attacks in Edmonton in recent years.

Kogon pointed out that any new cost agreement should go both ways, and ensure the Mounties pay when they use municipal services like Amherst's major crime unit team. "It's certainly normal for an agency like the size of Kentville to wonder will we exist 10 years from now? They will be presented to the justice minister for review, with approved standards eventually becoming regulations under the Police Act. "It certainly could be a driver in costs, which you know any municipality is not looking forward to. According to a tracking document released through the inquiry, the RCMP logged 84 requests for help from municipal police forces between January and December 2021.
