}}Calgary Police Service (CPS), formed in 1885, is the municipal police force for the City of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Organization

The force was founded on February 7, 1885.[1] The first chief was Jack Ingram, who supervised two constables.[2] Past chiefs include Christine Silverberg, the first female police chief in Canada. The current head of the CPS is Chief Roger Chaffin.

CPS is divided into sections:

  • Administration
  • Chief Crowfoot Learning Center
  • Community and youth services
  • Community liaison
  • Criminal operations
  • Finance
  • Fleet and facilities
  • Human resources
  • Information communication technology section
  • Investigation support
  • Major crimes
  • Operations audit
  • Organized crime control
  • Professional standards
  • Real time operations center (RTOC)
  • Support
  • Traffic services

In 1993, as a direct result of the hit and run death of Constable Rick Sonnenberg, the Helicopter Air Watch for Community Safety (HAWCS unit) was created, and the Calgary Police Service became the first law enforcement agency in Canada to incorporate the use of air support into its routine operations. In 2006, the unit was expanded when a second helicopter was purchased.[3]

A regional shortage of police recruits had previously led the Calgary Police Service to recruit officers from other international forces, especially the UK. To facilitate this, Canadian citizenship or permanent resident status was not a pre-requisite to apply, though a successful application was dependent on previous police experience.[4]

For a recruit application today,{{when|date=August 2017}} the Calgary Police Service has reinstated the requirement to have Canadian citizenship, landed immigrant status or permanent resident status.[5]

The service also employs community peace officers. These are not police officers, but have limited provincial statute authority. Some are uniformed and operate the photo radar and CPS internal tow service. Others are not uniformed and work in administrative duties involving limited investigations.

Fatalities in the line of duty

Since its creation the CPS has lost eleven officers in the line of duty.[6]

  • 1917 – Constable Arthur Duncan (gunfire)
  • 1933 – Inspector Joe Carruthers (gunfire)

2013 flood

{{Main|2013 Alberta floods}}

In June 2013, Alberta experienced heavy rainfall that triggered catastrophic flooding throughout much of the southern half of the province along the Bow, Elbow, Highwood, Oldman, and Red Deer rivers and tributaries. 24 municipalities declared local states of emergency as water levels rose and numerous communities were placed under evacuation orders.[9] The Royal Canadian Mounted Police stated four people might have drowned near High River.[10] Over 100,000 people were displaced throughout the region.[11]

Calgary Police's Twitter account was locked when it reached its daily limit.[12]

Crime

The Calgary census metropolitan area (CMA) had a crime severity index of 60.4 in 2013, which is lower than the national average of 68.7.[13] A slight majority of the other CMAs in Canada had crime severity indexes greater than Calgary's 60.4.[13] Calgary had the sixth-most homicides in 2013 at 24.[13]
