Ottawa police expand special constable program

Ottawa police have expanded their use of special constables — unarmed peace officers with nearly all the training of a patrol officer but without the option to use lethal force — to take some of the workload off an overburdened front line.

The Ottawa Police Service (OPS) launched a pilot in March 2024, with four special constables assigned to assist half of the patrol platoons in the west and central divisions respond to non-emergency calls. They deployed in marked special constable cruisers, and were dispatched by the police communications centre or assigned by supervising officers.

Fear turned to shock when murder accused realized he'd shot an officer, court hears

When two Ontario Provincial Police officers walked into Alain Bellefeuille's house, one calling his name and announcing they were police, Bellefeuille never heard it, he testified at his murder trial Thursday.

"If I knew they were police, I would've been relieved," he said in French of the events that took place May 11, 2023, in Bourget, Ont.

"I would've been confused, but I wouldn't have taken them to be a threat."

Instead he was panicked, he said, and his heartbeat was ringing in his ears. Someone was in his house at 2:30 a.m., he saw they were holding something metallic that looked like a handgun, and he thought he might die.

His response, he said, was to start firing the high-calibre, semi-automatic sport shooting rifle he kept at the foot of his bed in violation of gun safety regulations.

A gathering led by Filipino groups at McMaster University is aiming to honour the 11 people killed in Vancouver during the Lapu-Lapu Day event last month.

The gathering takes place Saturday from 3 to 6 p.m. within McMaster's Office of Community Engagement’s at 8 Mayfair Crescent.

75 years of Alberta's mission to keep rats at bay

For 75 years, Alberta has maintained a strict rat control program to keep the province rat-free. Patrol teams regularly inspect barns and storage areas along the Alberta-Saskatchewan border to stop rats from settling. The program began in 1950 after Norway rats, which originated in China and spread across North America, were found in Alberta. Napoleon Poulin, a key figure in the program, developed a rodenticide and helped eliminate infestations. Since peaking at 573 in 1959, rat infestations dropped to zero by 2003.

The vehicle he was travelling in was found at Papineau-Labelle Park in Val-des-Bois and the SQ has been searching the area as a result. Police describe Brouillard as a white man with blue eyes and brown hair who speaks French.

Calgary, Edmonton mayors call potential separatism referendum 'dangerous'

Alberta's two big-city mayors say a separation referendum would be "devastating" to their local economies and is a needless distraction during a period in which the country should be focused on unity.

"It is very dangerous talk," Edmonton Mayor Amarjeet Sohi said in an interview with The Canadian Press. "It is dangerous talk for our economy. It's dangerous talk for our social cohesion. It's going to tear apart communities."

Discontent in Western Canada has picked up renewed traction with Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals winning a mandate in the recent election and a new bill from Premier Danielle Smith's government that would make it easier to bring citizen-led questions to a referendum.
