Al Brolly, director of Aboriginal and Community Law Enforcement with Manitoba Justice, said the Taman inquiry has raised questions whether police officers working in smaller towns and communities are trained to the same level as officers working in Winnipeg and Brandon. In Manitoba, there are three accredited agencies that train municipal police officers: The Winnipeg Police Service, the Brandon Police Service (jointly with Assiniboine Community College) and Winnipeg's private NorthWest Law Enforcement Agency. In other provinces, municipal police officers must attend a provincial police college. Alberta -- Alberta Police College construction is ongoing for the new $100-million facility in Fort Macleod. When completed in about two years, it will annually train 400 recruits for police fo...

Other municipal police departments already pay better than this city's - and many are also offering better raises - so it would be penny-wise, pound-foolish for Brandon to get too stingy with its police compensation. [...] the deal it reached with the police union - which would see sworn members receive pay increases of 3.75 per cent retroactive to March 2008 and four per cent retroactive to March 2009, plus an additional 1.5 per cent increase in September - seems like an expensive, but fair compromise to us.

[Barry Ward] is a former local municipal police officer who worked for MPI for more than 23 years. He is also the President of the Central Canadian Auto Theft Associations and the Executive Director of the National Committee to Reduce Auto Theft, both of which lobby government and manufacturers to take steps to combat auto theft. He reports that the organizations' efforts were partly responsible for Daimler Chrysler's decision as of 2003 to equip all their new models with immobilizers. ("We were able to show Daimler Chrysler statistically that their products accounted for almost 50 per cent of all stolen vehicles in Canada," Ward says.) Ward opened Ward's Auto Security in March (shortly after he retired from MPI) and, he says, his company has quickly grown to become one of the large...

[Hymie Weinstein] said [Harry Bakema] turned [Derek Harvey-Zenk] over to another East St. Paul officer, Const. Jason Woychuk, who then took Harvey-Zenk back to the East St. Paul police station to be processed by Sgt. Norm Carter. Carter is now the chief of the municipal police department. Weinstein said there is no reference at all in Carter's and Woychuk's notes of Bakema telling them to not mention Harvey-Zenk's alcohol consumption. Weinstein said Bakema told Woychuk: "I haven't detected liquor on his breath. You might once he's in the cruiser car.

After months of collaboration, the RCMP, Toronto Police Services and Microsoft created the blueprint for GETS - the Child Exploitation Tracking System. GETS gives law enforcement the power to work seamlessly across borders and, using the best technological tools available, gives law enforcement a unique advantage in their battle with cyber criminals. In just two years, every provincial Internet child exploitation unit and major municipal police agency that investigates Internet facilitated child sexual exploitation in Canada has adopted GETS. The "made in Canada" innovation has also been adopted globally. In June 2006, Indonesia became the second country in the world to adopt GETS and in October 2006, the United Kingdom's National Criminal Intelligence Service, Spain's Cuerpo Nacional d...

Although city councillors have not received a report outlining the rationale behind the decision, [Keith McCaskill] said two police officers have worked exclusively for six months to study helicopter use by municipal police services in Edmonton, Calgary and Ontario's York Region, as well as by the RCMP in B.C.'s Lower Mainland. The big benefit the helicopter is going to have for us is utilizing our resources better. When it's in the air, you're going to have the bird's-eye view to determine your resources," McCaskill said, addressing concerns a helicopter purchase is just a crime-fighting gimmick. "If you can cut the number of cars off for other calls, the number of calls in our queue drops. The way the amendment was worded, the purchase won't go ahead unless the Manitoba government p...

It's absolutely astounding," said Winnipeg defence lawyer Jay Prober, who recently filed a lawsuit against the RCMP and Greyhound following the July murder and beheading of Winnipeg resident Tim McLean on board a Greyhound near Portage la Prairie. Police said [David Wayne Roberts] boarded the bus in Wawa, Ont., armed with a ticket that had been paid for with social assistance funds supplied to him by the Wawa municipal police earlier in the day. The OPP confirmed they were asked to assist in getting Roberts on his way. Wawa police Sgt. Larry Ross told CBC they first dealt with Roberts early Sunday morning when they charged him with causing a public disturbance. Roberts has a previous criminal history and is currently on probation for unspecified convictions. Ross said they briefly deta...
