People in a small community in Nunavik are devastated after another shooting involving police in late December.

But police shootings in the Inuit territory in northern Quebec are nothing new.

Between 2016 and 2018, Nunavik police killed or seriously injured someone at a rate 55 times higher per capita than Montreal police.

Some say part of the problem is that only three of the 155-person force are Inuit.

On this edition of APTN News InFocus, host Cierra Bettens speaks with Tom Fennario, a correspondent with APTN Investigates, about the problems with the Nunavik Police Service.
