  • Inside Queen's Park
    INSIDE QUEEN’S PARK Vol. 31, No. 15 GOVERNMENT AND POLITICAL ANALYSIS July 24, 2019 Province failing to implement police de-escalation training review, ombudsman says By Jack Hauen The provincial government has not yet implemented a review of how police are trained in de-escalation tactics, which was supposed to come by the summer of 2018, Ontario's ombudsman said in a recent report. In his 2018-19 annual report, Ombudsman Paul Dubé wrote that three years after a damning 2016 report from his office that found police sorely lacking in training on how to "use their mouths" instead of their guns, key recommendations remain unaddressed. The 2016 report found a "shortfall in provincial guidance on the use of force and de-escalation" and made 22 recommendations — including more training for officers on mental health issues and scenario-based training — all of which were accepted by the previous Liberal government. One of those recommendations was a requirement for officers to use de-escalation tactics before resorting to force. While the current government passed the Comprehensive Ontario Police Services Act in March — which requires de-escalation training for all officers — a review of the training curriculum is more than a year behind schedule, Dubé said. "The Ministry (of Community Safety and Correctional Services) advised us in April 2018 that a review of the Ontario Police College’s de-escalation training curriculum would be completed by summer; it still has not been finalized," Dubé wrote in the annual report released in June 2019. He added that the current government has told him it "continues to research" the use of police body cameras, among other recommendations from the 2016 report still not implemented.
