Surrey Police Service names new chief constable

Original: surrey

Surrey's Police Board has appointed a new chief constable for the Surrey Police Service. Former mayor Doug McCallum has publicly commented on the decision, which comes as the city continues its contentious transition from the RCMP to a municipal police force. The appointment has drawn attention in Metro Vancouver, where policing in Surrey has been a long-running political issue.

Why now: The appointment of a new police chief touches on Surrey's ongoing and politically charged RCMP-to-municipal-force transition.
