I have prepared this report to do more than just meet the legal requirements in the Police Services Act of Ontario. I hope that it will provide a window into the issues and activities of the HPS so that the people we serve can clearly see what we do and what comes of our work. Overall, 2019 was an outstanding year for our Service. We hired three excellent additions to our staff, handled a 17% increase in incidents, and an equal decrease in crimes of violence. Drugs are a significant problem today, and Hanover saw a small increase in drug offences over 2018, although there was a 24% decrease in other criminal offences. Financially, we did exceptionally well, with a budget that was lower than 2018, a surplus at the end of 2019 and a minimal increase in expenses over the previous year. I wish to thank Don Smith, Chair of the Hanover Police Services Board, and Board Members Mike Dunlop, Selwyn Hicks, Rick Hopkins and Sue Paterson for their unwavering support of the Hanover Police Service. I would also like to acknowledge the assistance of Catherine McKay, Secretary of the Board, for her work in preparing this report. I look forward to continuing to work towards making Hanover a safe place to live, to visit and to do business in. Chris Knoll Chief of Police 2 Hanover Police Services Board Business Plan The Hanover Police Services Board is responsible for the provision of adequate and effective police services in the Town of Hanover and is the employer of the Chief of Police and all Police Service members.

  • Information on How to Become a Police Officer Because You Asked
    MO NE Y B A C K Message from the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police Individuals considering career choices today have many options. Choosing policing opens the door to a challenging and fulfilling future. Our police services are always looking for highly qualified and motivated people from different backgrounds to join them as policing professionals. As Ontario’s police leaders, we believe that the citizens we serve deserve police professionals who are among the best and brightest from all of our communities. Whether you’re a young person just starting to look at your career options, an individual considering a career change, or someone who wants to make a positive impact in your community, policing could be an excellent choice for you. To help you discover policing, we’ve put together this informational booklet. Because of the varied nature of police work, individuals who work in law enforcement can apply the skills and experiences they’ve developed from their previous training, education, professional, and personal life in a variety of areas. Policing offers opportunities for personal growth, continuous learning, a high level of job satisfaction, opportunities for specialization, opportunities for promotion as well as excellent salary, benefits, and pension. Today’s police recruits must bring with them a high degree of comfort with modern technology, a willingness to engage members of our diverse communities, and a dedication to serving in a professional and accountable manner. A police officer must bring understanding and empathy to dealing with tough circumstances, yet always be committed to seeing justice done. This takes dedication and courage, honesty and personal integrity.
