EPS Discipline News: An EPS cop who was charged with four counts of neglect of duty, two counts of deceit and one count of discreditable conduct has resigned before his disciplinary hearing. His name is being kept secret. #yegcc ImageImage
The misconduct charges were laid on Nov. 18, 2021. The officer resigned on Dec. 31, 2022. The public has no details on who the officer was or what the misconduct allegations were. The matter was closed in January but the public didn't even get these bare bones details until May.
This secrecy around police discipline only helps bad cops. With nothing official on their disciplinary record they're free to apply for other law enforcement or law enforcement adjacent jobs without an investigation into their misconduct.

The Edmonton Police Commission's press release where it compares Chief McFee's $340K yearly salary to other chief salaries is not only blatant media spin but it appears to have a rather large error contained within it. Here it is. #yegcc
The release states that Toronto Chief of Police makes $356K per annum. The Ontario Sunshine List puts the Toronto Chief of Police's 2021 salary at $332K. We've inquired with the Edmonton Police Commission about the discrepancy. Click the link for proof. ontariosunshinelist.com/people/donald-…
The release also uses the 2020 salary for the Ottawa Police of Chief which is $359K. But the 2021 salary is available and former Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly made $341K in 2021. Why use the 2020 salary number? ontariosunshinelist.com/people/peter-s…

Bad news. The Progress Report is not doing well financially and me (@duncankinney) and @jimstorrie are down to half-time. We can’t sustain the organization much longer like this. To get back to full capacity need 100 new patrons this month. theprogressreport.ca/patrons
We're not the greatest fundraisers over here. We don't hit up our supporters for money constantly. And being able to fight for what’s right—as our day jobs!—is such a great privilege that we get a little shy about asking for help. But right now we need it.
The good news is that we just put out a call to our email list with this same ask and we got a third of the way there in a day. We'd love to see some love from our Twitter followers to get us closer to our goal.

Edmonton city council got absolutely played by police. The base police budget has increased by $22 million and the Safer For All Task Force's recommendation, that council freeze the police budget and invest that money in community, is effectively dead. #yegcc
That modest half measure was killed by these Edmonton city councillors. They voted for the status quo, to continue a policy of guaranteed funding increases that literally no other police department gets in Canada.
We're two years on from the murder of George Floyd and the largest mass movement in modern history and elected officials are not just defunding the police, they're giving them more money than ever.

Edmonton city council is currently debating the police funding formula. Stay tuned to this thread for updates. Councillors are currently asking questions of administration. Police commissioner Ashvin Singh is in attendance. #yegcc
Commissioner Singh is currently making the case for why Edmonton Police need their guaranteed funding increases no matter what. Argues that moving from a guaranteed funding formula to not having a guaranteed funding formula could throw the police and their budgeting into disarray
Councillor Rutherford brings up the notion of trust between council and the police commission with respect to a four year budget commitment.

Below is every single tweet that was submitted to the Integrity Commissioner by Staff Sgt. Michael Elliott as part of his code of conduct complaint against Councillor Janz. Every single complaint was dismissed. Below we have two "known critics," Engel and Mohammed. #yegcc ImageImageImageImage
Councillor @aaronpaquette makes his first appearance and in three of these cases Janz is retweeting and commenting on the work of journalists @mastermaq and @TheMaimann and our editor @duncankinney. ImageImageImageImage
Another journalism outfit comes up in Elliot's complaint, this time it's @isthisforrealca. Michael Janz posting about the thin blue line flag that was, until very recently flying outside their building, seems to really rub Elliott and the EPA the wrong way. ImageImageImageImage
