Re: VicPD launches bold vision for policing (News, Nov. 16)
It’s ironic that Victoria police Chief Constable Jamie Graham targets 2020.
A 20/20 vision must be a community-driven initiative to plan and implement strategies that enhance a community.
Graham’s plan shows a lack of community participation, and again, another attempt to manipulate a desired outcome, that has little to do with benefit to the area and more to do with compensating Victoria and its out-of-control spending habits, which has Victoria spending more than any other B.C. municipality for policing on both a per capita and GOP basis.
The province is not interested and neither are the surrounding municipalities.
