Two Montreal Officers Suspended Over Alleged Humiliation of Unhoused People

Montreal police have suspended two officers over alleged acts of humiliation directed at unhoused and racialized people, CBC reports. One of the officers was suspended after colleagues alleged that he urinated on unhoused people while in uniform, according to sources who spoke to Radio-Canada. The claims come from fellow officers rather than from a court finding, so what the suspensions establish is that the force is acting on an internal allegation — not that the conduct is proven.
