Toronto police board requests inspection into antisemitism allegations within police service [View all]

The Toronto Police Service Board has made a request to Ontario’s Inspectorate of Policing to conduct an expedited inspection of recent antisemitism allegations levelled at the Toronto Police Service.

Late last month, former homicide detective Hank Idsinga made allegations of antisemitism in the Toronto Police Service in the pages of his recently released memoir.

In a public statement released Friday, board chair Shelley Carroll said the board’s request follows consultations with Jewish community stakeholders and members of the board’s Jewish Community Advisory Table.

“The Board has heard clearly from members of Toronto’s Jewish community that these concerns need to be examined independently and credibly,” said Carroll in the statement. “Residents should never have to question whether they’ll be treated fairly because of who they are or what community they belong to.”
