Calgary police are also setting up a temporary ninth district police station on the Stampede grounds with its own commander, radio channels and patrol officers. “Large events can be challenging for police. Our service is very used to planning for the Stampede and every year we make sure we’ve got the right resources in place,” said Supt. Joe Brar.
“We will have a highly visible police presence both along the parade route and at Stampede Park. We bring in officers from across the city who work very closely with all of our partners … to ensure we can handle any situation that arises.”This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 4, 2023.
