The Waterloo Region Police Services Board posted a statement from Chief Larkin in June 2020 that acknowledged that they have work to do. He said, in part:

First, on behalf of the Waterloo Regional Police Service, I want to acknowledge that racism exists in our Region and in our country and that Black, Indigenous and other racialized communities have suffered, and continue to suffer, from systemic discrimination and bias in our society.

We recognize and acknowledge that policing is perceived and experienced by racialized communities as an institution that embodies this systemic discrimination and bias. We also recognize that these communities believe, based on their felt experiences and histories, that Police Services in our Region, in Canada, and throughout the world, exercise their powers of enforcement in a manner that results in the disproportionate treatment of those who are poor, Black, Indigenous or People of Color.

I'm sure that there others out there who may have more concrete data on the matter.  The tricky part is that I'm not sure what public data is available beyond the "use of force" data listed above.  If someone from the BIPOC community has a negative experience that does not result in a "use of force" nor an arrest, that data may not be publicly available.
