Edmonton City Council is back and digging into the giant motion before them, on community safety and police budgets. You can follow along live on YouTube: #yegcc #blmyeg
This is the motion. And all of its many amendments. edmonton.ca/city_governmen… #yegcc
Before getting to all these amendments... I've noticed that police speaking to #yegcc admit systemic racism exists but only in more general ways. There's not as much direct accountability or such for individuals. They're focus more on corporate-style changes, but within system.
Crowd stops at 109 street & 104 avenue to take a knee in honour of #GeorgeFloyd #yeg #blm #blacklivesmatteryeg #blmyeg
Taking a moment of silence. It’s so quiet you can only hear nearby traffic #blacklivesmatteryeg #yeg #blm #blmyeg
