SUMMARY: In September of 2018, as part of its governance and oversight responsibilities, the VPB committed to auditing street checks and annually releasing street check data that is broken down by gender and ethnicity. On January 15, 2020, British Columbia (BC) Provincial Policing Standard (BCPPS) 6.2.1 Police Stops (‘Standard’) came into effect. The Standard also requires police departments in BC to conduct an annual audit of street checks. The data in this report will address these commitments. This report will also provide the results of the audit and clarify the law surrounding the practice of street checks, comment on the efficacy of street checks, and comment on calls to ban the practice of street checks. The following is a high-level listing of the audit’s findings. Important background, information, and context is in the main body of the report, and must be read to avoid any misinterpretations: The Law Surrounding Street Checks (pages 6-8) In addition to BC, the following provincial governments have either regulated or provided guidance on the practice of street checks: Ontario; Saskatchewan; Nova Scotia; Quebec, and; Alberta (they are listed in chronological order of when each government provided direction). Police cannot conduct a street check that is random, arbitrary, biased, or based on identity factors such as (but not limited to) race or ethnicity.
