Statement from Canadian Police Association President Tom Stamatakis on the Surrey Police Transition 👇

We thank the province for providing resources to the City of Surrey to ensure the transition is seamless. #bcpoli #surreybc

The Province of BC has announced that Surrey’s policing transition will be completed. SPS is pleased to see a final resolution to this matter and looks forward to continuing to work with the community to build a modern, local police service for Surrey. Read Chief Lipinski’s

Thank you to the Canadian Police Association for the support. #bcpoli #surreybc #canpoli

Time to move forward. Thanks Mayor Ken Sim #bcpoli #SurreyBC #dispatchnow

Rest in peace legend. Another example of the dangers our fur legends face daily as they protect handlers and their community. "K9 Bingo" is and will always be remembered a hero.

Thank you Surrey Police Board for your professionalism and confidence in our members. Strong civilian oversight is essential for modern policing. Now is the time to move forward building a first-rate and accountable police service for Surrey. #surreybc #bcpoli

So proud to unveil the new Community1st tent and vehicle at the Cloverdale Market today. Incredible public support, listening to all voices in the community. #C1stunit #connection #copwhocares

We welcome the appointment of Mike Serr as temporary Administrator of the Surrey Police Board. We are confident that Administrator Serr will help to facilitate an expeditious completion of the policing transition in #SurreyBC.

This is one of the most unbelievable quotes I've ever seen an elected official give. Suggesting a local police service is beholden to a specific political party is beyond irresponsible, and Mayor Locke owes the SPS (+ specifically it's members) an apology:

The bottom line: you can disagree with my decision but targeting new recruits is just wrong. Spending taxpayer money on advertising, leaflets, billboards and lawyers rather than paying those who have chosen to risk their lives and serve the people of Surrey is ridiculous.

🚨PRESS RELEASE: Surrey Police Union sets the record straight on two-officer cars. Contrary to recent misinformation by Office of the Mayor, it doesn't increase costs; it enhances service delivery & safety. Less cars, not more officers. Read our statement below. #bcpoli

At today’s open police board meeting, Administrator Serr clarified a few important points: - How police resource numbers are determined - 2-officer vehicles don’t equate to increased costs - SPS’s 2023 spending was not over-budget Read his statement: bit.ly/4dboSi5

Unfortunately, Office of the Mayor continues to undermine our members. Earlier that morning, SPS covered for RCMP meeting with NPF-FPN. A regular occurrence for important meetings in policing. All officers were available to attend calls, and several left the meeting to respond.

Kudos to the Surrey Police Service officer who played a pivotal role in the detection & arrest of the suspect in the White Rock stabbing & homicide cases. Excellent work! 🙏🙏🙏

NEW - BC Supreme Court has quashed the city of Surrey judicial review petition aimed at quashing Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth’s decision the RCMP must be replaced by the Surrey Police Service. #bcpoli
