Members of the urban Indigenous community in Hamilton are welcoming the city's first Indigenous Hamilton Police Service (HPS) liaison - a role some are hopeful will help build trust and reduce violent interactions with police. It comes nearly a year after the assault of Indigenous man Patrick Tomchuk by police Const. Brian Wren.
