For a variety of reasons, including that policing remains male-dominated, there are very few female officers in higher ranking positions in municipal police agencies in Canada. With few female leaders comes a lack of female role models, mentors, and the female influence in decision making at executive levels. This has had a broad effect on how police agencies respond to the communities they serve.

  • Moving Forward PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Executive Members of His Year Has Been Very Successful for the Federation
    The Official Publication of the British Columbia Federation of Police Officers Vol. 5 Issue 1 TransportationGreater Vancouver Authority Police Moving Forward PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Executive Members of his year has been very successful for the Federation. Our organization continues to grow and some of our The BC Federation of Police Officers PTinitiatives are gaining momentum. It’s actually a pretty exciting time, but it is human nature to focus on the failures and the frustration that ensues when things don’t turn out as fast as we would like. When I was first elected to this position, I had some thoughts and goals as to the direction our organization should be going. First and foremost we (the Fed Executive) represent you, the front line police officers, at the Provincial and National levels. Issues that affect one of us, affect us all eventually, so it is important that all Canadian Police Officers speak out with a united voice and that our message is loud and clear. The Federation should be there to assist you when you ask, not interfering in the way you police your community or run your Local. The Federation is there to protect your rights, to talk to the decision-makers and ensure they know what you want. This means talking with politicians, the media and anyone else who can help us. With this in mind, your Executive is continuing to restructure the Federation’s Constitution so that we can expand and truly speak for all the officers in the province. But change is not easy, and to be effective it needs your input and participation.

  • Chapter 1. the Co-Production of Policing and Protest: Hippies, Love Street, and “Grasstown”
    “We Were Not Playing Games”: Transnational Moral Policing in 1970s Vancouver by Brody Herman B.Ed., University of British Columbia, 2017 B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2016 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Brody Herman 2021 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2021 Copyright in this work is held by the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Declaration of Committee Name: Brody Herman Degree: Master of Arts Title: “We Were Not Playing Games”: Transnational Moral Policing in 1970s Vancouver Committee: Chair: Nicolas Kenny Associate Professor, History Joseph Taylor Senior Supervisor Professor, History Luke Clossey Supervisor Associate Professor, History Bradley Miller Examiner Associate Professor, History University of British Columbia ii Abstract At the conclusion of the Gastown Riot in August 1971, Vancouver Police Inspector Robert Abercrombie declared the evening “a good night’s work.” Using riot sticks and horse hooves, Vancouver Police violently dispersed a protest against marijuana laws in Gastown’s Maple Tree Square. The Gastown Riot, and the year of protests leading up to it, demonstrate a transnational relationship between police and protestors. City officials and constabulary organizations worked to preserve their vision of moral order during the 1960s and 1970s, buttressed by the slogan “law and order.” This thesis uses a comparative approach to analyze the contexts in which North American police organizations violently responded to protest under the pretence of protecting morality and law and order.
