Alberta creates new police force, training sheriffs for frontline roles amid projected budget deficit.
The Alberta UCP government introduced Bill 15 to create the Alberta Sheriffs Police Service, transitioning current sheriffs into certified police officers via a six-week training program.
The move aims to expand frontline policing by potentially adding 600 officers, as about half of the province’s 1,200 sheriffs already perform police-like duties.
The legislation transfers staff and budget to a new Crown corporation, with a deputy Calgary police chief appointed to lead the agency.
A timeline and full financial details, including a projected multi-billion dollar deficit, will be outlined in the upcoming budget.
