Addressing systemic racism and discrimination is an organizational priority for the RCMP.
After two years of extensive consultations in communities across Canada, the RCMP’s Race-Based Data Collection Initiative will be piloted in select detachments across the country starting in January 2024. The Whitehorse RCMP Detachment is one of the pilot communities for this project. The Race-Based Data Collection Initiative aims to collect, analyse and report race-based data to better understand the experiences of Indigenous, Black and other racialized individuals and communities in their interactions with RCMP frontline officers.
