In undertaking this work, we would like to express our gratitude to the many funders who help make such programs possible. Moreover, without the support of our exceptional faculty, staff, board, and extraordinary volunteers, the activities of DVSA would be difficult, if not impossible to bring to fruition.

  • Pride in Hamilton
    Pride in Hamilton AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW INTO THE EVENTS SURROUNDING HAMILTON PRIDE 2019 SCOTT BERGMAN COOPER, SANDLER, SHIME & BERGMAN LLP JUNE 8, 2020 Pride in Hamilton An Independent Review into the Events Surrounding Hamilton Pride 2019 Executive Summary The Two-Spirit and LGBTQIA+1 communities are entitled to celebrate their sexual orientation, diversity, gender identity and expression. They must be afforded full protection of the law in doing so. They are equally entitled to bias-free policing in their daily lives. The majority of Canadians understand this. Some do not, including homophobes, white supremacists and organized agitators. They spew hatred, vitriol and derision. They are quick to rely on freedom of speech, while intolerant of the constitutional freedoms and rights of a multicultural, diverse society. A democratic society must recognize that the expression of abhorrent views is a necessary price to pay to enjoy our freedoms. But there are limits. Enforceable limits. On June 15, 2019, homophobes, white supremacists and organized agitators disrupted Hamilton Pride 2019. Their activities could reasonably have been anticipated by police, but they weren’t. As a result, the police response was inadequate — before, during and after the event. This added to the distrust of police in some circles. With every crisis comes opportunity. There has been a legacy of distrust of police among many, not all, members of the Two-Spirit and LGBTQIA+ communities in Hamilton. This crisis provides an opportunity for lessons to be learned and for a new relationship to be forged between the Hamilton Police Service (“HPS”) and these communities. I am convinced there is a strong appetite on the part of police and community members to do exactly that.
