Résumé
This is the first of three short discussion papers on major policy areas being considered in Part Two of the Ipperwash Inquiry. This paper considers the relationship between police and government and the scope of police independence from improper governmental influence. The Inquiry is also preparing discussion papers on policing and Aboriginal peoples (including policing occupations) and Treaty and Aboriginal rights. The purpose of this paper is to provide parties with notice of the issues that Part Two is considering on this subject. The paper also sets out a series of questions that are likely to arise in our deliberations. Parties are encouraged to consider some or all of these questions and the issues raised in the discussion papers in their written and oral submissions. A list of questions is attached as Appendix A.
