My department purchased around a half dozen Durangos for marked patrol and supervisor use. After just over a year and some months, the consensus is to return the fleet, as much as possible, to the Ford PI Utility (Explorer). The Durangos have performed less than was expected (in road work, reliabili...

Pretty exciting, a great platform. This just shows the massive shift back to 9mm is happening. My department, a large state agency, is transitioning back to 9mm after a long run of .40 S&W. We are also getting pistol lights issued as well.

In addition to what was mentioned by exle0987, many departments set a minimum of basic disqualifications that would automatically prohibit you from applying. If these dis-qualifiers do not apply to you, or if you have questions, disclose everything on your application. Many agencies will look at the...

State law-enforcement officer here. I'm unaware of any agencies that have lowered hiring standards or would hire someone outside of state or federal citizenship requirements. Care to elaborate?

Weyburn's got nothin' on Dafoe (24-hr Husky Travel Centre). But to be fair, how about Yorkton? It's like Weyburn but doesn't have its own muni PS...

If you want close to Yorkton, we're always hiring at File Hills Police lol, we're an hour south

I know exactly where you are! I bumped into an officer from your service in Ft. Qu' Appelle years ago.

I am stepping down from representing CVSE on here. Feel free to PM if you still have questions about CVSE and I will do my best to answer what I can.

Passing the baton to ShadowB?

If given the chance most will drop their 40sw Glock's for the new 17M platform. I agree, and I'd be willing to bet that Glock will be offering 17M's at a bargain price (or urging distributors to give generous allowances for trade-ins) to get more into the hands of departments for exposure. Yupppp! ...

Sparwood would be a nice duty location!

Here we have CVEO 1-4. CVEO 1's are the core group in the field. CVEO 2's are similar to a corporal rank (lead worker), CVEO 3's would be supervisors and CVEO 4's are program managers, be that industry based or training related.

I wonder why so many postings from SK...attrition or adding personnel? I have to admit, my mother in law would love for me to apply for this and bring her daughter back home...lol. I see a CVEO when we are in Yorkton from time to time but I never have a chance to stop and chat. Same for the scale fa...

Not just a Glock 17 but the new Glock 17M The internet was hot and heavy with info on the 17M earlier this year but I haven't seen any recent developments lately. I haven't even received any updated armorer documentation on the specific differences (compared to the boatload armorers were sent at th...

Not sure what the love is for the 1911. Then there's no saving you... Not many folks have had the chance to really run a decent 1911 platform so go easy on him Heck...I'd bet that most LE officers hired in the past 5 years haven't even handled a 1911, let alone know how to clear one or make it safe.

Ya, I'd like to try a 1911, 9mm is my love. Seem complicated and pricy lol. 'Sorry... I should have been more specific. As king I would have 'em all carrying .45acp 1911's. I'm a 9mm guy.. I've shot 45 lol. Not sure what the love is for the 1911. Springfield Armory 1911 Loaded in 9MM...FTW. (But I ...

Just for some perspective,in the states (especially here in WA), department heads are permited to grant limited commissions to their staff to supplement fully-commissioned officers. In many cases here near Seattle, these officers serve roles such as animal control, custodial transport and court secu...
