S E L L EVERYTHING IN JUST 2 WEEKS ^ c a ll N e w A R Va`d o w n p a y m e n to nsa fe ty ': B u rto n continued from p.25 training that prepares them to decide what they might do even before they reach a scene, he said. "We were already doing the training in those reports' recommendations," Sandy said. He was referring to two recent, in-depth examinations of police actions in confrontations with the public. One was conducted by retired Supreme Court Justice Frank Iacobucci and released in July 2014. The other was penned by Ontario Ombudsman Paul Dube in June 2016. Entitled A Matter of Life and Death, the latter report focused on police using de-escalation techniques before resorting to lethal force. Sandy said a revised model to police training emphasizes three aspects -- basic physical training, simple reality mental training and complex reality emotional training. "Containment is a tool that should always be in an officer' s mind." They should be thinking about it before they get to a scene, he said. "Many officers go out to low-risk situations, but if containment principles aren't applied it can become a high-risk situation." "I would expect a 4th Class constable to be able to apply it," he said. During discussion it was mentioned Halton police statistics indicate just showing a Taser to a suspect tends to de-escalate a situation. As far as officer training, Sandy said the provincial standard is once a year, but Halton police mandate block training for every officer twice a year. "I have no issues sleeping at night knowing how well our officers are trained," Chief Stephen Tanner said, adding, "The (new Armoured Rescue Vehicle (ARV) the service bought earlier this year) could be a de-escalation tool at the highest end." Board Chair and Oakville Mayor Rob Burton said he views the $300,000-plus ARV as a downpayment on safety. · · · The Halton Police Services Board is getting its own website. The civilian board is a provincially-mandated, independent entity that oversees Halton Regional Police, monitoring its implementation of provincial policing standards. It currently has space on the Halton police website. The two entities will have links to each other once the new website is operating. The website will be called haltonpoliceboard. ca. No date has been set for its launch. · · · There are currently six members on the police services board: Oakville Mayor Rob Burton is the chair; Oakville' s Barb Ferrone is the vice-chair; Oakville town/regional councilor Jeff Knoll; Burlington city/regional councilor Rick Craven; provincial appointee Jason Wadden; regional council appointee Gary Burkett. The board can have seven members. A seventh member, a provincial appointee, will be announced by the province sometime, said police services board executive director Julie Moscato. 6 4 7 - 6 9 9 -3 4 3 1 M axSold.com /oakville Local expert help in Oakville to sell everything!
