After the STM and Mayor Plante dismissed the request, the elected officials have decide to carry the fight to the City Council, where the Official Opposition will table a motion on May 13th, calling again for an independent inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;When I hear the STM board chairman, Philippe Schnobb, say that the standards and the protocol have been respected and that no fault has been committed by his agents, I understand the feeling of injustice that many Montrealers feel. Mayor Plante is trying to rule out an independent inquiry, which is the only way to shed light on this story. We will therefore double-down on our efforts to make the administration listen to reason and protect the public from the abuse of power by STM inspectors,&#8221; said Lionel Perez, leader of Ensemble Montr\u00e9al.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>An incident pushed aside by the STM and the Plante administration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The STM held its own internal investigation, which lasted only three days, without meeting or interviewing the victim of the assault or certain key victims of the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;After this so-called investigation, held without regards for the basic rules of transparency, the STM simply declared that the inspectors acted in accordance with protocol and that there would be no sanctions. This rushed, unacceptable decision was taken after following a flawed process. Regardless, the decision was immediately backed by Mayor Val\u00e9rie Plante, with the obvious intent of sweeping the Villa-Maria incident under the rug\u2019\u2019, said Abdelhaq Sari, spokesperson for Ensemble Montr\u00e9al on public safety issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>High-profile supporters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once again, several organizations, including the Black Coalition of Quebec, the C\u00f4te-des-Neiges Black Community Association, the Playmas Montreal Cultural Association, Montreal in Action, the Association of South Asian Communities, the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/ville.montreal.qc.ca\/pls\/portal\/url\/ITEM\/7F855E544BD4B0C8E0530A930132B0C8\">Filipino Golden Agers Association of Montreal and Suburbs (FILGA), the Chinese Business Persons Association, the Pangasinan Association and the Center for Research-Action on Race Relations (CRARR) support the elected officials\u2019 process and give their blessing to the motion of the Official Opposition.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The young man in question had his rights violated, was treated inhumanely and paid the price, since he was diagnosed with post-traumatic shock. I do not believe that the common good has been protected by doing so,&#8221; said Marvin Rotrand, City Councilor for the district of Snowdon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A clear motion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Official Opposition\u2019s motion states that a mandate for an investigation into the March 7 incident be given to an independent and external party and that the resulting report be tabled in full at City Council, as well as at the Board of Directors of the STM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our motion implies that an independent inquiry is not only the most reasonable, but also the most effective approach. Our duty is to restore the public\u2019s confidence and to ensure that this never happens again. All citizens of this city, without exception, have the right to feel safe when using the metro,&#8221; concluded Mr. Perez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Motion Requesting the Immediate Initiation of an Independent Inquiry on the Incident at the Villa-Maria Station<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;this past March 7, at the Villa-Maria Metro Station in Montr\u00e9al, Mr. Juliano Gray was the victim of a violent intervention by inspectors of the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de transport de Montr\u00e9al (STM), who in particular struck him several times with their batons;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;several human rights defence groups, including the Center for Research-Action on Race Relations (CRARR), the Black Coalition of Quebec, the Jamaica Association of Montreal, the Alliance of South Asian Communities and the C\u00f4te-des-Neiges Black Community Association, have denounced this incident as a case of excessive use of force and racial profiling by STM inspectors;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;Mr. Gray received a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder from a psychiatrist, forcing him to take 30 days\u2019 sick leave;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;the STM has conducted a so-called internal inquiry of three days\u2019 duration without meeting or interviewing either the victim of the aggression or witnesses to the incident in question;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;no report has been published as a result of this inquiry and the Chairperson of the STM\u2019s Board of Directors, Mr. Philippe Schnobb, simply said publicly and in a letter, \u201cthat [the] inspectors acted according to the standards and procedures put in place by the STM\u201d;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;the STM has recognized the problem of the lack of accountability of its inspectors, but refuses just the same to launch an independent investigation into the March 7 incident;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;there is a lack of transparency, equity and impartiality in the STM\u2019s procedures regarding the handling of user complaints about the work of the inspectors and this lack of transparency, equity and impartiality may undermine public confidence in the STM;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Whereas<\/strong>&nbsp;incidents involving the use of excessive force by the inspectors and agents of public safety upon racialized users have adverse consequences on race relations and social cohesion in Montr\u00e9al;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is proposed by&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Lionel Perez, Leader of the Official Opposition and City Councillor for the Darlington district;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>and seconded by &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Abdelhaq Sari, City Councillor for the Marie-Clarac district;<br>and&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Marvin Rotrand, City Councillor for the Snowdon district;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>That<\/strong>&nbsp;the City of Montr\u00e9al launch without delay an inquiry into the incident of last March 7 at the Villa-Maria station and that this inquiry be entrusted to an independent, external party;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>That<\/strong>&nbsp;the
