Submission re: International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights to the Human Rights Committee for seventh periodic report of Canada
This document provides an overview of the Tracking (In)Justice: a law enforcement and criminal legal data and transparency project’s observations and questions to Canada in response to the Human Rights Committee’s upcoming review of Canada’s compliance and obligations under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). Specifically, we focus on reporting on deaths in custody, deaths by police use of force, lack of civilian oversight, limited investigatory mechanisms, and racialized inequities. We hope that this document will assist the Committee to seek further clarity in relation to Canada’s ongoing and outstanding issues in Canada’s adherence to the ICCPR.
