Detachment Commander’s
Update
Acting Detachment Commander—A/Insp. Peter Valiquette
I am pleased to have been given the opportunity to fill the position of
the Detachment Commander of Quinte West Detachment during the
absence of Inspector Earl Johns. During the past month, I have had the
opportunity to work with both the civilian and uniform staff of the
Quinte West Detachment and to have a part in the day to day operations
of the Detachment. I have also had the opportunity to meet and work
with the Staff at City Hall as well as some of the members of Council.
I appreciate the support that I have received to date and look forward to
with everyone over the next few weeks.
January and February 2011 has been a couple of busy months for our members. D/Sgt. Brad Robson will
advise the Board members of two armed robberies which occurred within days of each other, during the
month of January. Uniform members and members of the Crime Unit / Street Crimes Unit worked together
to conduct a lengthy investigation into the incidents and were able to solve both cases. Those responsible
have been charged and are presently before the courts.
Our members have been working with officials from CFB Trenton in preparation for the Community Open
House scheduled on the Base on the 4th and 5th June 2011. This years theme “Your Wing—Your
Neighbours” will feature displays from the more than 40 different squadrons and units that make up 8 Wing
Trenton. The exhibits will feature current roles and historic perspectives. Our officers will once again
work hand in hand with base personnel to ensure a successful two day event within our City.
“ Two Armed Robberies solved after lengthy investigation”
I am pleased to announce changes with the Community Policing Officer and School Resource Office positions.
Constable Dave Snider will move to the School Resource Officer and Constable Lonne Foeller will
take over the position of Community Policing Officer.

About The Canine Unit
The O.P.P. Canine Unit was formed in
1965. Three teams were trained to provide a
support service for the O.P.P. and other law
enforcement agencies.
Today, 27 teams: each consisting of a dog and a
handler, are stationed at strategic points across
the province and provide canine support for
search and rescue operations, tracking wanted
persons, detecting narcotics, explosives, cadaver
and physical evidence.
The teams are also involved in community service
work, fund raising events and public demonstrations.
Canine teams undergo 16 weeks of intensive training at the O.P.P. Academy Canine Training Centre. This training includes promoting
obedience, exposing the dogs to obstacles such as stairways, heights, ladders, tunnels and water. The emphasis is on
tracking. Training the dogs to follow specific human scent over various terrain in all weather conditions requires determination,
concentration and patience. The dogs are taught to protect the handler on command even in the face of gunfire.
Within one year of completing the training, teams return to be trained to detect narcotics.
Specialty dogs, usually Labrador retrievers, are trained for specific duties. There are currently 6 teams trained to detect explosives,
6 additional teams are trained to detect human remains that are buried or under water, and 2 teams are trained to locate
people buried as a result of a disaster.
Careful consideration is given to the selection of both dog and handler. German shepherds, aged 18 to 24 months, are chosen for
general service duties. This breed is renowned for its' keen sense of hearing and smell, its' even temperament, stability, alertness
and for its dependability in various weather conditions.
Handlers must be in top physical condition in order to keep pace with their dogs.
Each dog lives at the handler's home and stays in an outside kennel provided by the O.P.P. This develops a proper heavy undercoat
that will protect the dog during cold weather assignments. Teams use a specially designed vehicle to provide proper security
for the dog and storage for equipment the handler requires. The teams are on call 24 hours a day for assignment anywhere in Ontario.

Emergency Response Team
The Emergency Response Team (ERT) received official recognition in 1992, when the Ontario Provincial Police made a decision to
incorporate a number of specialized emergency response units into one team.
The Ontario Provincial Police's ERT is comprised of 262 men and women whose full-time responsibilities are conducting front-line
policing duties at detachments located throughout the Province.
Any other situation that the Regional Commander deems requires their expertise
To become an ERT member, OPP officers must be able to demonstrate integrity, sound judgement under stress, leadership and effective
communication skills as well as the ability to problem solve and take initiative. ERT members must maintain a high level of
physical fitness and are required to maintain a state of readiness to be called out with little notice and are often required to work away
from their homes for extended periods of time. The working environment during an incident may be unpredictable and subject to
rapidly changing factors.
It is important for the success of the ERT program that the appropriate candidates are selected for this challenging role.
Identified ERT candidates must successfully complete the 9-week ERT basic training course. This course is physically and mentally
demanding and will give the candidate the knowledge and skills to be able to be an effective member of ERT.

“Operation Freeze": Promoting positive
encounters with youth
ORILLIA, ON, June 30 /CNW/ - Kids will have another reason to look forward to their next encounter with an Ontario
Provincial Police (OPP) officer, thanks to a recent youth initiative developed in partnership with Mac's Convenience
Stores. This initiative recognizes positive behaviour by our communities' youth in a very cool way...with a very cool
treat.
In partnership with Mac's Convenience Stores across Ontario, OPP officers who observe local youth doing random
acts of kindness or exhibiting positive behaviour will be able to recognize that person with a "ticket" which is actually a
coupon valid for a free 710 ml Froster beverage valid at all participating Mac's stores in Ontario throughout the summer
of 2010.
In addition to recognizing good behaviour, "Operation Freeze" offers opportunities for OPP officers to interact with
youth in a positive manner while supporting the OPP Positive Ticketing Program. Officers may use the coupons to recognize
youth for wearing bicycle helmets, doing good deeds, participating in community activities, picking up trash,
pro-actively deterring crime or observing safe-street crossing rules. Officers can also make use of the coupons as
"icebreakers" to establish a dialogue with kids in their patrol area.
Though the reasons for issuing the coupons may vary, the end result of this youth positive ticketing initiative is the
same for every youngster: a positive police - community interaction experience and a free Froster beverage!
"Mac's strives to be a leader in crime prevention," said Sean Sportun, Manager of Loss Prevention & Security for Mac's
in Central Canada. "We are very excited about Operation Freeze and the positive message it delivers."
"The OPP is pleased to participate in an initiative that recognizes youth for responsible and caring behaviour," said
Inspector Mark Allen, Manager of the OPP Crime Prevention Section. "Partnering with local business and engaging our
youth in a positive manner builds partnerships that make our communities strong
