Protests in response to racism and police brutality against Black and Indigenous peoples are gaining momentum — and with them, calls for police reform are growing. In other words, should we take some of the resources from police coffers and reallocate those funds to social services programs? That's why CBC Manitoba will host a community-driven conversation to keep the dialogue going on a special CBC Asks live discussion, asking the question: "Defunding the police: Is this the solution?" If you have comments or questions related to this topic, please share them in the comments and remember to join us through cbc.ca/manitoba/community. Or visit CBC Manitoba on Facebook at 2:30 p.m. CT on Tuesday to watch this event live.
