While the stickers were in the central Lonsdale neighbourhood and have now been removed, RCMP said police are investigating these incidents as a wilful promotion of hatred.

“Promoting hate propaganda has no place in our community and these ideologies are not representative of our community,” Cpl. Mansoor Sahak, media relations officer for the North Vancouver RCMP said in a statement.

“We remain committed to ensuring North Vancouver is a safe and inclusive place for everyone.”
