Police resources in Canada, 2018 / by Patricia Conor, Jodi Robson and Sharon Marcellus. : CS85-002/39-15E-PDF

"Canadian police services are mandated with the essential task of administering and maintaining law and order across Canada and ensuring public safety. Within this realm, the roles and responsibilities of police services have changed over time, creating new challenges in areas such as crime prevention, law enforcement, public assistance, maintenance of public order and responding to emergencies. Police services are one of the first responders to mental health calls, drug crises, suicides, disturbances, motor vehicle accidents and many other community well-being and safety issues that may not be criminal. These calls, along with responding to crime, require an abundance of police resources. Data from Statistics Canada's Police Administration Survey (PAS) provides insight into Canada's police personnel and expenditures. Since 1962, it has been the source for information on police administration for the policing community, governing bodies and policy makers, and the general public. … This Juristat article will report on the data from this redesigned survey by including trend analysis of key indicators such as police strength, as well as new information on civilians and special constables and their duties and functions; full and parttime positions; long-term leave; salaries, wages and benefits; and detailed breakdowns of operating expenditures and capital expenditures"--Page 4.
