immigrant population: Thus the members are selected from, or appointed by, our elected representatives, according to Hamilton Spectator. To suggest, as Dr. Khan wants to see the police board as 'representative of our 'village', and asks why there are no people of colour, no hijab-wearing member, no LGBTQ member, no Sikh member He is apparently unaware that the board is composed on only seven members three representatives of city council, three appointed by the provincial government, and one citizen appointed by council. Khan does, that this is a country club approach is entirely false. This office serves the aboriginal, faith, LGBTQ, newer immigrant population plus the wide ranging diverse demographic of the city of Hamilton. Further, there is a Community Relations Office which serves as the bridge between the police service and the city's diverse minority groups.
