Calgary Police Commission

Drug consumption sites do not help people recover from addiction. Alberta is replacing them with services that connect people directly to treatment, stabilization and long-term recovery. This is about helping people heal, restoring safety in our communities and making sure more Albertans get the care they need to rebuild their lives. @Richard4Alberta

Thank you, Calgary. 💙 Yesterday’s 2026 Calgary Policing Summit brought together community members, businesses, subject‑matter experts, civic leaders, and members of the Calgary Police Service for a powerful day of learning, reflection, and forward‑thinking dialogue.

Gained valuable insights and meaningful experience at the Calgary Police Summit through engaging discussions with community and civic leaders including @Amtul , @CPS_Commission @JeromyYYC @cityofcalgary @katiemcllelan @calgarypolice and Michael Ewenson, Police Review Commission @YourAlberta . The summit provided an important platform to exchange ideas and strengthen collaboration toward safer, more inclusive communities in Calgary.
