THUNDER BAY - Citizens from the community to be appointed to a Thunder Bay Police Services Board committee will have a say in recommending new board members and the new chief of police.
The motion came as a memorandum from board secretary John Hannam on behalf of Police Services Board administrator Malcom Mercer, who provided details of the amendments during Tuesday’s meeting. The amendment to the governance committee will see three Police Services Board members and three civilian members appointed. Its mandate will also be amended to allow for the committee to recruit new board members and executive members of the police service including the chief and deputy chief.
“This is a decision that should be left to the next board,” he said. “I think we are at a point where this term of council is just about concluded and you will have a number of new appointments in the near future, certainly from the city side.”“From my perspective I would wait and leave it be,” he said.
Mauro expressed an additional concern that there will be unelected committee members who will be making weighty decisions such as selecting the new police of chief.

Someone stole and crashed a Toronto police vehicle with canines inside, police say | CBC NewsInsp. Craig Young said the suspect tried to enter a taxi after crashing the police canine unit SUV, when officers arrived at the scene and arrested him. Probably time for the city to hire security guards? Thankful the dogs are ok. Police are refusing to comment on how the vehicle was so easily stolen. Thereby insulting the public's collective intelligence by protecting the officer who, one could surmise, left their keys in the ignition.
