Will Ontario's policing inspector investigate the Toronto Police Service? A Monday announcement may tell | CBC News
"The province's inspector general of policing is holding a news conference Monday morning to give an update on whether they will investigate the Toronto Police Service after seven of the force's officers and one former officer were arrested and are facing corruption charges. Ryan Teschner will begin the announcement at 10 a.m. and CBC News will stream it live in this story."
"The officers were arrested after a months- long investigation by York Region police and officials have voiced concerns about the scandal undermining public trust in police. Since then, Peel police has suspended three of its own officers in connection with the case, although no charges have been filed. In a letter last week, Toronto police Chief Myron Demkiw asked the inspector general to conduct an independent review of the service and said the service will leave no stone unturned."
