Release of “Summary Report: Public Consultation on systemic Racism and Discrimination within the Jurisdiction of the City of Montréal” by the Office de consultation publique de Montréal.

The goal of the consultation was not to verify the alleged facts, but rather to draw a portrait of the current state of affairs, to highlight the solutions proposed by the collectivity and to enlarge perspectives in order to guide public decision-making.

The 38 recommendations of the Commission involve, essentially, four major phases that are required in order to manage strategic change: recognizing the problem, measuring the problem, defining goals that lead to concrete actions and being accountable for these actions

The recommendations are divided into two categories:

• transversal recommendations that create a framework for the elaboration of a strategy to counter systemic racism and discrimination within the jurisdiction of the City;
• specific recommendations to implement this strategy within the various domains under the City’s jurisdiction.
