“Racial discrimination and profiling is in the bloodstream of all police departments across this country,” said Beaudin in a statement to media. During a phone interview May 14, William Favel, an Indigenous man, said Saskatoon Police forcibly handcuffed and detained him – without probable cause – when he was headed to a barbecue. “The police forcibly detained me on April 2 because I knew my rights and would not provide them my name and identification on an unlawful stop,” said Favel. “They terrorized me and told me I was under suspicion of being in a gang solely because of my green Saskatchewan Roughriders facemask.”
