Douglas Scott in 2007. “We are deeply disgusted and frustrated by the Parole Board of Canada’s decision to grant day parole to Pingoatuk Kolola, who was convicted of the 2007 murder of 20-year old RCMP Constable Douglas Scott in Kimmirut, Nunavut. Kolola was sentenced to life in prison with no parole eligibility for 25 years. Yet, not even 18 years later, he is being released on day parole. This decision is not only profoundly disrespectful to Const. Scott’s family and colleagues, it is a slap in the face to every police officer who puts their life on the line each and every shift to keep our communities safe.
