Policing the Pandemic Enforcement Report April 14 2020 - May 1 2020
Policing the Pandemic Enforcement Report April 14 2020 - May 1 2020 Alex Luscombe1 and Alexander McClelland2 www.policingthepandemic.ca National Level Trends Based on available data, we count a total of 4,575 people that have been ticketed/charged on separate occasions for alleged COVID-19 related violations across Canada, resulting in over $5.8 million in fines to date. Although a very small number, we cannot say these are unique individuals as some people have already been fined/charged multiple times since police responses to COVID-19 began. The vast majority of these enforcement actions have been in Quebec´ (3048), followed by Ontario (930), Nova Scotia (516), and Alberta (44). Based on available data, we continue to observe far less enforcement actions in other Canadian provinces (less than 15 per province) (Figure 1). At the city level, most of these enforcement actions have been concentrated in Montreal´ (1848), Toronto (594), and Halifax (216). In the previous Enforcement Report released April 13, we indicated a concern that other provinces outside of Quebec,´ Ontario, and Nova Scotia could soon scale-up enforcement. Although that concern has not been realized, we note that in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba, there has been a small increase in enforcement. In Saskatchewan, tickets for alleged COVID-related violations are also the highest we have seen yet, starting at $2000 (compared to the next highest, Quebec,´ at $1,546). In terms of alleged violations, the majority of enforcement actions to date have been for failure to physical distance/comply with minimal gathering rules (4398). More and more details about these incidents are beginning to come to light. -

280 Insulting Characters? an Analysis of the Content of Tweets Addressed to the Police in Canada and the United States
Université de Montréal 280 Insulting Characters? An Analysis of the Content of Tweets Addressed to the Police in Canada and the United States par KNOP Justine École de criminologie Faculté des Arts et des Sciences Travail dirigé présenté en vue de l’obtention du grade de Maitrise en Criminologie option Criminalistique et Information Juillet, 2018 © KNOP Justine, 2018 Résumé Les réseaux sociaux tel Twitter sont de plus en plus populaires. Il n’est donc pas surprenant que la police s’engage sur ce terrain. Les réseaux sociaux permettent à la police de communiquer facilement avec la population dans un espoir d’amélioration de leur relation avec les citoyens qui peut parfois être tendue. Avec la démocratisation d’internet et l’avènement des réseaux sociaux, les incivilités qui auparavant étaient limitées au monde réel se sont transposées en ligne. La police est donc parfois la cible de ces cyber-incivilités. Bien que l’utilisation des réseaux sociaux par la police ait été étudié ces dernières années, la manière dont la population communique avec la police, surtout lorsqu’elle le fait de manière antagoniste, n’a été l’objet que de quelques recherches seulement. La présente étude cherche à combler ce manque dans la littérature en analysant ce qui est dit à la police sur le réseau social Twitter. Les tweets de janvier 2018 mentionnant les départements de police sélectionnés au Canada et aux Etats-Unis ont été collectés. Les résultats démontrent que certains départements de police sont plus mentionnés que d’autres (c’est que le cas du TPS et de la NYPD) mais aussi plus insultés que d’autres. -
