So Nunavut has a population of about 14,000 people - 90% who are Inuit - and a police force of 155 officers - 3 who are Inuit.

Make it make sense.

As always, ACAB.

    I see all the stats you cited in the article, expect for only 3 of the 155 Nunavik Police Service offers being Inuit. Is there a source that you can share for that? Because that'd be an almost unfathomable difference in terms of Inuit representation in local population versus police...

    Ty. (Edit: Those numbers are shocking !!
    If you click the podcast link and click the info button on the relevant podcast, it says: "Some say part of the problem is that only three of the 155-person force are Inuit." (And undoubtedly says that in the podcast too.))
