Steve,

Have you noticed recently how nearly 50% of Calgary Police interviewed on the news have UK accents?

I met one in person yesterday nice young lad he was, looked like he was barely old enough to shave he wasn't a Brit though.

Got me a bloody speedin' ticket didn't I.

Oh well there goes $103 to support the province.

Yes ... we got one in the mail this week too!!!

When all you nice people get here, will you please tell them at CPS to leave us alone! (41kph in a playground zone {30kph} at 12.00 on a Saturday!!) Sigh.

Congratulations and well done to you both. I am actually sat in the Auditorium at Ontario Police College (only a few weeks to go now). If the training in Calgary is similar he should have fun. The training I had in the UK was good, but to be fair I think it has been better here. They seem to give much more consideration to officer safety. Sometimes it makes me wonder how I survived 6 years in the UK!!

Good luck with your move.

Mark

There has been a fair bit of poaching over the last year or so! Calgary also have 27 PNP places to allocate this year - not that we needed that route as it happens - but beware, there's a few more en route !! And there was you guys thinking you could get away from us !! (It's actually not that large a percentage of the total but maybe they just pick the good 'uns to go in front of the camera - it's that british dashing-good-looks thing, isn't it ??!! )

Thanks for all your good wishes - long may they last !
