“These are three innovative and inspiring leaders who will help us move the Service in a progressive, modernized and transformational fashion, finding ways to better serve the public,” said Toronto Police Services Board (TPSB) Chair Andy Pringle. “Together, these individuals bring extraordinary expertise in community policing, human resources, diversity and inclusion, fiscal responsibility, mentorship and strategic management.”
