Vancouver Police Department take part in apology arising from a settlement agreement of a human rights complaint against the Vancouver Police Board
Members of the Vancouver Police Department are expected to take part in an apology ceremony today in an expression of regret for arresting and handcuffing an Indigenous man and his granddaughter when they tried to open a bank account.arising from a human rights complaint against the Vancouver Police Board filed by Maxwell Johnson of the Heiltsuk Nation in Bella Bella, on B.C.’s central coast.
The settlement included an undisclosed financial award to Johnson, $100,000 to fund the nation’s restorative justice department, and the development of a plan to improve police training on anti-Indigenous racism and “cultural humility.” It says the absence of constables Canon Wong and Mitchel Tong would be another hurtful chapter in Johnson’s long journey to address the discrimination he and his granddaughter faced.
The nation says the ceremony is a prerequisite for true reconciliation and is intended to be an uplifting experience for everyone.
