Bites sustained from police dogs happen every 2 days in so-called British Columbia. These bites cause horrible damage and can result in severe injuries and even death. We believe in a world free from the violence of policing and no more animals used as weapons of colonial violence.

The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) of British Columbia, often called the “Police Watchdog” by the press, is intended to be an objective body with the task of investigating police actions following a serious incident that results in death or harm when a police officer may have been involved. The IIO is made up of 28 investigators, half of whom are former police officers. Despite this clear conflict of interest, their investigations are considered objective. Only 10% of investigations into police conduct by oversight bodies result in charges against officers. There is no appeal process. We demand real accountability and consequences for cops who kill.
