Egregious cop-washing in this front-page article about WRPS’s approach to systemic racism. Most of the article is dominated by a police staffer claiming the lack of participation must be due to apathy about racism, not our community’s mistrust of police. No opposing voices interviewed.
Once again, legacy media basically copies and pastes a police press release.

Cambridge councillors voted in favour of having city staff review the feasibility of closing part of Main Street in the Galt core to traffic year-round to promote a pedestrian-only community space.
We are celebrating three things tonight. One: moving in together; two: first day of school; and three: my business’ 15 year anniversary on September 1st.
Woohoo! @smuh35
Is there an organization in #KWAwesome #WRAwesome #CBridge @waterlooregion that is in need of a Queen mattress and box spring - hoping to donate to a family or person in need (vs. Dropping off at a donation centre). Good condition, non-smoker, no pets household.
Pickup: Galt / Cambridge (I don’t have a truck to deliver it so it must be picked up).
Timing: Anytime from now through this weekend including Labour Day.
I’m moving Tues Sept 3rd so I’ll be taking it outside of Waterloo Region at that point and looking for Halton/Hamilton area orgs instead!
PS will update/delete post when I have a taker for this.
