2021 Annual Report is now available!

In addition to addressing resource needs, employee wellness and public safety, our Commission and the Service made significant strides towards the police reform, reconciliation and anti-racism commitments made in 2020.

The report also includes statistics on police conduct complaints last year and information on how police oversight works in Calgary.

All our latest reports are available on our website .

Workplace conditions at Calgary Police Service to undergo third-party audit, oversight body says

'while a lot of work has been done, we also know that problems persist,' police commission chair says.

Social Sharing

A third-party review of workplace conditions inside the city's police department is on the way, according to the chair of the Calgary Police Commission, following recent public complaints made by the force's former director of human resources.

Shawn Cornett made the announcement Wednesday at a public meeting of the police department's oversight body, saying the review comes after recent months of discussion.

• Calgary Police Service sues former head of HR over 'inappropriate' social media posts

She said progress has been made over the past decade to address bullying and harassment — noting "extensive" efforts to create a respectful workplace — but the work isn't complete.

"While a lot of work has been done, we also know that problems persist," Cornett said.

"When we look at the employee surveys, we have not seen the change we hoped when it comes to employees' trust that harassment and bullying, including gender-based harassment, is being addressed properly.

"The recent public allegations made by a former employee also raised serious concerns."

Cornett was making reference to public complaints made by a former human resources director at the Calgary Police Service (CPS).

Angela Whitney, who worked with CPS from 2019 until her resignation in 2021, has alleged the service was "rife with harassment, bullying and discrimination."

• Fatal shooting at Calgary hotel a targeted incident, say police
• Calgary police officer charged with assaulting handcuffed man

CPS has filed a lawsuit against Whitney, asking a judge to force her to remove "inappropriate social media posts" that, according to the statement of claim, "divulge confidential information about the CPS and its employees."

Cornett told reporters the commission had been discussing the need to go back and look at the culture of the police department, noting previous reviews over the past decade.

In 2016, for instance, a previous iteration of the police commission publicly directed the police chief to implement the recommendations of a review aimed at addressing bullying and harassment .

She said the commission had not yet received a formal complaint from Whitney, but Cornett added that her public concerns "helped add to that conversation that we were having."

• No charges for RCMP officers who arrested non-verbal autistic teen at Alberta playground

The chair said the commission now has to determine who will conduct the audit and then put a framework in place for the process, which will look into what's been done, what's working, what isn't, and where there are gaps.

"We are all passionate about the fact that this can't take forever," Cornett added, adding she hopes the work could be completed within six months to a year.

In the meantime, she said work in those areas within the department should continue.

Police Chief Mark Neufeld said the department will co-operate fully with the review.

"I think it's a great idea," he said.

"I'm hopeful there are some insights to say you need to adjust here or put some extra emphasis there. I think all of that is really good. But in the meantime, I feel like we know what we need to do. We're on the path, and we'll keep doing it.

"That is not to say it's perfect. I think any review of any workplace would find that there are imperfections and there's challenges and issues — and I think more than ever these days."

Neufeld said the police service wants to make sure it has "a safe, respectful and inclusive environment."

Calgary business optimism up so far in 2024: Report

A new report suggests Calgary’s business expectations are on the up and up thanks to provincial growth and fewer closures in the city.

The Q1 Canadian Survey on Business Conditions , released on Friday, was conducted by Statistics Canada in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce.

It shows Calgary is among the top five cities in the country for business optimism: much higher than the national average.

The data suggests more than 77 per cent of Calgary businesses across all sectors are feeling good about their future over the next 12 months.

That’s despite some cost-related concerns: interest rate worries for larger businesses and inflation worries for smaller ones.

The 77.3 per cent mark is a significant increase from the 62.5 per cent recorded in the first quarter of 2023.

"To look at that number was just fantastic," Calgary Chamber of Commerce president Deborah Yedlin said.

"We have been through such challenging times. I’ve often said we started on our — from an economic standpoint — road to recovery when the energy prices crashed in 2014. So this has been almost a decade that Calgary has really been working its way back to the place where it is today."

The report chalks all the growth up to a combination of increased access to capital, a growing consumer base and reduced business closures. In fact, more than three quarters of local businesses say they have sufficient cash on hand to operate effectively, according to the report.

A recent net positive migration of over 200,000 people to the province is only growing Alberta’s consumer base and helping alleviate concerns about cost-related obstacles.

That has Yedlin feeling good about the future, too.

"I see this continuing, because there are a lot of positive things to focus on," she told CTV News.

"This is a city that’s transforming itself, and it’s being seen as a magnet for talent, investment and opportunity."

However, there are still some nagging worries.

ATB chief financial economist Mark Parsons points out that labour-related challenges remain a concern for many businesses, especially in construction and hospitality.

"But The Bank of Canada is going to start lowering its policy rates," he said. "It’s just a matter of time, we think it’s about mid year, and that will boost sentiment right across the country."

Albertans to spend more at the pump and on a pint starting Monday

By Dione Wearmouth and Phil Wood

Posted Apr 1, 2024 08:25:44 AM.

Last Updated Apr 1, 2024 06:42:38 PM.

Alberta’s provincial fuel tax increase comes into effect Monday morning — pushing the cost per litre from nine cents to 13 cents. But, that’s not the only increase hitting the wallets of Calgary drivers, as the federal carbon tax is increasing to 17.6 cents a litre, or 24 per cent.

The carbon tax increase has long been criticized by Premier Danielle Smith, and that criticism is materializing in the form of a protest Monday morning south of Cochrane .

The rally is happening near the intersection of Highway 1 at Highway 22, in an effort to “overturn the tax through peaceful protests.”

Organizers say they intend to leave at least one centre lane open to traffic during the events.

RELATED CONTENT: Critics call out Alberta and federal governments for upcoming gas tax increases

In a statement, Cochrane RCMP have advised drivers of possible delays or disruptions on Highway 1 west of Cochrane and are suggesting other routes be taken if possible.

It says RCMP and partner organizations will work to ensure the impact on travelers is minimized to make sure disruptions don’t affect public safety.

The event is just one of many supposedly planned across the country Monday.

The Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation expects the increase will cost Alberta families an extra $911 this year, but Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently justified the tax, saying Conservative premiers across Canada are “misleading Canadians” about the tax.

“Eight out of 10 families across the country in federal backstop jurisdictions make more money with the Canada Carbon Rebate than it costs with the price on pollution,” Trudeau said.

At the same time, the provincial fuel tax is going up which, earlier this month, Minister of Finance Nate Horner said will increase revenue by $1.4 billion over the next year.

WATCH: Calgarians queue up to get cheaper gas ahead of the double tax hike on April 1

Here in Calgary, many drivers rushed to the pumps over the weekend to avoid the increase, and most told CityNews that no matter how you justify it, it’s still hard to hear.

Smith took that message to the feds last week, speaking virtually in the House of Commons, where she called the increase “inhumane,” even as her government moves to increase the provincial gas tax at the same time.

“Albertans and all Canadians, need common sense, compassion, and responsible government to prevail,” she said. “That’s why I’m urging you today, to heed the calls of Canadians across the country and suspend the increase to the carbon tax on April 1.”

Early Monday morning, GasBuddy.com showed a range of prices for gas in Calgary, with the lowest at 145.9 cents/litre, and the highest at 154.9 cents/litre.

Alcohol tax increase also coming April 1

Gas isn’t the only thing getting more expensive Monday, so are your favourite wines, beers, and spirits.

The increase to Canada’s alcohol excise tax amounts to two per cent, lower than the first expected 6.3 percent, which would have been the biggest hike in almost a decade.

But, it ends up costing nearly a quarter of the price on a 24-pack of beer.

The tax is typically adjusted every year to match the rate of inflation, though federal Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland has previously announced the increase would be capped at two per cent per year until 2026.

The Alberta Hospitality Association is calling for the feds to abandon the tax hike.

WATCH: Alcohol taxes go up, small businesses worried

Ruhee Ismail-Teja, the director of communications at Calgary’s Chamber of Commerce, says the tax adds insult to injury.

“Everything from the cost of labour, from property tax, obviously supply chains continue to be an issue, inflation, interest rates, supply chains,” she said. “We really see that businesses are repeatedly getting hit.”

Consumers won’t necessarily see the increases on their receipt, as the tax will be imposed at the manufacturing level.

However, Dan Allard with the Cold Garden Beverage Company, believes the added costs will impact bars, restaurants, and breweries that aren’t as busy as his business.

He expects his bills could increase roughly $300 a month.

“To some people listening to this right now, that might seem like it’s nothing — you know, it’s peanuts, 300 bucks a month, it’s a drop in the bucket — if you’re busy and if you’re not, that could mean you’re closing the doors,” Allard explained. “It should be something where we want to feel good about donating money to the government so they can be doing better services, but if it’s at the expense of businesses, we’ve go to toe that line a bit.

Plan to pay more to park at Alberta Health Services’ facilities

On average, daily rates will go up by $0.75 in large markets such as Calgary, and $0.50 in smaller markets.

Alberta Health Services (AHS) says monthly and weekly parking passes are available to patients and visitors at rates well below market value.

Calgary man charged in multi-year fraud investigation: Fort Saskatchewan RCMP

A 55-year-old Calgary man is facing charges related to a multi-year investigation into a $54,000 email scam, police say.

On March 3, 2022, RCMP officers received a fraud complaint from a local business on 118 Street in Fort Saskatchewan saying the CEO’s email was hacked and used to request payment for an invoice over $54,000, police said in a Wednesday news release. Hours later, the company realized it had been scammed, as the funds were deposited into an unknown account. The hacker then tried to make a second similar request, which police said tipped the company off to the fraud.

After investigation, police identified a suspect who was also involved in similar activity in Ontario. Because the Ontario and Fort Saskatchewan cases were so similar, police said a Canada-wide warrant was issued to the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP). A second warrant was granted for Fort Saskatchewan.

Calgary resident Trevor Howarth, 55, was located on March 24 and arrested on outstanding warrants. He is charged with one count of fraud over $5,000. Howarth is scheduled to appear in Fort Saskatchewan court on April 25.

Police investigate multi-tractor crash as carbon-levy protests continue in Alberta

By The Canadian Press

Posted Apr 2, 2024 05:58:58 PM.

Last Updated Apr 2, 2024 06:01:55 PM.

COCHRANE, ALBERTA, CANADA — Mounties in Alberta say they’re keeping traffic moving on the Trans-Canada Highway despite a roadside carbon-levy protest, and say five large farm tractors have already caused a multi-vehicle crash.

Protesters slowed traffic on the Trans-Canada just west of Calgary on Monday to protest the scheduled hike in the federal carbon levy, which boosted gas prices at the pumps by about three cents a litre.

That protest has continued but police say traffic is moving as demonstrators are being kept off to the side of the road.

Police say another carbon-levy protest further south in the Crowsnest Pass on Monday led to a multi-vehicle crash after five large farm tractors refused to stop for police.

The investigation into that pileup continues.

In Calgary Tuesday, Premier Danielle Smith urged all protesters to keep the demonstrations legal.

“I don’t support it when Extinction Rebellion glues themselves to the street and stops traffic, and I don’t support anyone (else) stopping traffic as well,” Smith said.

“You can protest (but) do it at the side of the road.

“Don’t interfere with the movement of goods. Don’t interfere with the movement of your neighbours.”

The province has in place the Critical Infrastructure Defence Act, which provides added penalties for those who tie up key infrastructure and transportation corridors.

Smith said she will leave it up to police to decide when and if to use the defence act.

Police, in a news release, said safety is paramount.

“We do not take enforcement action lightly, but the safety of motorists, protesters and a travellers’ right to use a public highway must be maintained,” Alberta RCMP said in a news release Tuesday.

“It is extremely unsafe to stand or impede traffic on a public roadway.

“The RCMP have advised the protesters (at Cochrane, west of Calgary) that we will be in location to ensure they remain off the highway and do not impede the flow of traffic along an extremely busy corridor.”
