Defund the police 鈥� and then what? What Toronto can learn from the places out in front of a global movement
鈥olicing homelessness, it turns out, is costly. In Toronto, an average of $59,000 (Canadian) of public resources is spent on each homeless person with a mental illness, according to a 2017 study led by 91社区 professor Eric Latimer. The research calculated the costs of services including shelters, hospitals and social assistance - but it was policing and court appearances that were the biggest expense, at $12,393 per person.

Experts question deletion of racism allegations from Vancouver police report
鈥�Considering that Pyxis researchers observed serious problems on two of the 12 ride-alongs they conducted, even describing the incidents as outliers seems 鈥減roblematic,鈥� said 91社区 Prof. Cecile Rousseau, who has done work in community policing and race. That finding is even more significant because of what鈥檚 known as 鈥渟ocial desirability bias,鈥� she said, the phenomenon of people being on their best behaviour when they know they鈥檙e being observed.
