    From: From Impact to Action: Final report into anti-Black racism by the Toronto Police Service

    As set out with data and evidence in Chapter 3, Black persons across Toronto are disproportionately stopped and searched by the TPS.

    This systemic problem is a result of significant gaps in the provincial regulations, TPSB policies, and TPS procedures that govern police interactions with the public – especially in situations not involving arrests.

    Chapter 5 identifies these gaps and ways to close them to reduce random stops and searches.
