Relying on police reported hate crimes in Canada isn't working: five year study on racism in Canada

Over the past five years, we've been using Google Alerts to track down racism reported by the media across Canada. This research is groundbreaking and provides evidence that limitations of relying on police-reported data is preventing us from getting a full picture of the prevalence of racism in Canada. Nation-wide data on race-based hate incidents is needed to drive necessary anti-racist reform. Canada must become a data-driven country to improve equity and outcomes for Indigenous and racialized peoples, thereby creating transparency so all Canadians understand the importance of anti-racism work in Canada.
