Résumé (anglais)

This survey of a national Canadian sample examines the associations between individual- and community-level factors with arrest by police. Indigenous Peoples were more than twice as likely to have been arrested than White people. Indigenous Peoples living in Indigenous enclaves were nearly five times as likely to be arrested than White people in similar communities. And Indigenous females who lived in Indigenous enclaves were nearly 20 times more likely to be arrested than otherwise similar, White females. Indigenous males in these communities were also disadvantaged relative to their White counterparts. These findings strongly suggest that over-policing contributes to the overrepresentation of Indigenous Peoples across the Canadian criminal legal system.
