It's really for my own edification because under the definition of police officer, it doesn't say a certified officer employed by a municipal force, a provincial force, or the RCMP. It says, “constable or other person employed for the preservation and maintenance of the public peace.”
There's no danger that this could be interpreted to mean the private security guard employed by a municipality to patrol the streets at night because they're not getting sufficient, regular police force coverage, which we see in communities across the country?
