Overview
Police should have no role in responding to mental health crises, activist groups said in response to last week's police shooting of a Montreal man.
About 200 people, including representatives from the Montreal and Toronto chapters of the group Black Lives Matter, attended a protest Sunday in front of the apartment where Pierre Coriolan was shot.
They then marched through downtown, where photos posted on social media showed them climbing onto a stage at Montreal's International Jazz Festival.
Quebec's police watchdog says they believe Coriolan, 58, was distressed and holding a screwdriver in each hand when police arrived at his apartment last Tuesday.
