Special Constable 04


Special Constable 04 :

(2) Canada: Special Constables are also utilized at many Ontario universities to provide a hybrid police-security service to their respective communities. In Ontario, Special Constables are generally not armed with firearms, the exception being police services and Niagara Parks Police. At times, provinces may need to swear in a visiting police service to allow peace officer status. This is frequent with RCMP in Ontario as well as Súreté du Québec in Ontario. Cross jurisdictional issues can be alleviated with special constable appointments. The government may also appoint Special Constables, who only need the authority to serve summons and subpoenas, etc. In the province of British Columbia, members of the Conservation Officer Service are designated Special Constables under that province's Police Act, and are responsible for enforcing specific provincial and federal laws, including certain Criminal Code offenses. These are usually investigators from government agencies, for example the Competition Bureau and Canadian Food Inspection Agency. Special Constable appointment is not a replacement for a police officer. The appointment confers limited authority and the jurisdictional police will still have overall law enforcement authority and responsibility regardless of the Special Constable. For example, on a university campus or a transit system, Special Constables may deal with crimes, however the local police will have the overall responsibility for the Criminal Code enforcement. Volunteers with provincial and municipal police departments in Canada are called Reserve or Auxiliary Constables
