It's a police tactic that allows officers to stop people and ask for identification, it's called carding or street checks.

Carding is definitely one of the more controversial police tactics. It allows officers to stop and ID anyone, without any kind of probable cause.

It's especially controversial among minorities, who see the practice as racially-biased, and statistics seem to back that up.

This review, led by Justice Michael Tulloch, is looking to find whether the new rules have eased the controversy.

Public consultations have been taking place across the province since the beginning of February, including the last stop in Sudbury on Monday.

If you're going to have a dialog about carding, there are a lot of voices you need at the table.

Prasanna Ranganathan is Senior Counsel for The Independent Street Check Review.

"Police officers, chiefs of police, he's meeting with community organizations, indigenous groups, racialized communities." said Ranganathan.

Those communities have long complained that carding targets skin colour more than it targets criminals.

The new rules put in place by the Wynne Liberals aimed to curb that.

Sergeant Robin Marcotte of the Greater Sudbury Police Service says the force believes they've found the right balance between individual freedoms and the need for officers to gather information.

"As an organization, we want to be able to clearly articulate that any information that was collected had value and, as well, we want to ensure that all the rights that were identified by the regulation were afforded to the individual." said Marcotte.

One of the rights is the receipt an officer must provide after a street check.

It shows the officer's name and badge number and even gives direction on how to file a complaint.

Justice Tulloch is still hearing a wide range of concerns throughout Ontario.

"We've heard from some people that there was a lack of public information on the regulation. People weren't aware of the regulation, what it specifically meant, how it changed things at all. Other people have indicated that they do not want the practice at all. They do not want it regulated." said Ranganathan.

Having completed 12 public consultations, it'll now be up to Justice Tulloch and his team to breakdown this information into a report with recommendations for any legislative changes by November 30.
