A quick reminder this is the same PD that did 'starlight tours' from 1976 to the early 2000's resulting in at least 3 freezing deaths.
As always, ACAB.

Oh it didn't end in early 2000s. Every now and then an Indian turns up froze with no winter clothes 20 miles outside of saskatoon. What happened back then is one tough fucker survived and the media paid attention for a bit so the cops didn't for a few years.
How the hell is this still happening? I'm particularly frustrated that the Crown Prosecutor appears to be covering up rather than going after the police for flagrantly illegal practices.
The Saskatoon Police? Shocking. There was never any indication they were like this. Nope.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A Saskatoon defence lawyer says internal police records show officers are using the city's bicycle bylaw 'as a ruse' to stop and search Indigenous men downtown.
It all began when Murphy was defending an Indigenous man who had been stopped by police while riding a bicycle early in the morning on June 28, 2021.
The very next day, June 28, the Crown stayed the criminal charges against his client — even though officers had recovered a sawed-off shotgun, knife, ammunition and cocaine.
This effectively ended the case before the judge could rule on whether the bicycle stop violated the man's Charter rights, but Enweani did make some comments about the records, specifically about the vast majority of tickets going to Indigenous people.
9705, The Bicycle Bylaw, requires riders to have working bells and horns, reflectors and headlights after sunset, and orders they stay off sidewalks.
Murphy applied to have the seized items excluded as evidence at trial, citing the Charter provision protecting the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.
