Mayor hails decline in armed violence
Mayor Plante and her urban security chief Martin Prud’homme are happy with the decline in armed violence they say is a result of police raids and arrests against criminal forces.
The numbers reveal that homicides and attempted homicides, as well as victimless gunfire, are all down appreciably compared to last year.

Lol, of course they did.
The violent crime numbers were already going down, this is just the cops looking around saying ” uh… it’s safer because we said we would be here”.
They need to justify the excessive cop budget, literally nothing from that has reduced crime. Even the gun thing. It’s such transparently performative justification for the cop budget; it’s insulting to anyone paying attention, which is typical of both the cops and PM.
