REGINA POLICE    POLICIJA REGINE

      Policijska služba Regine, oformljena 1892. godine, je gradska policijska služba Grada Regina. Tokom 1890-tih Regina je bila glavni grad Sjevero-zapadnih Teritorija (Northwest Territories) iako je tada bila samo hrpa drvenih građevina i šatora. 19. 06. 1982. gradsko vijeće imenuje Jamesa Williamsa za prvog pozornika u Gradu Regina. Zakletvu polaže četiri dana kasnije. Williams prima plaću od 50$ mjesečno, ima besplatnu uniformu, ali se za oružje morao sam pobrinuti. Posao je obuhvaćao cijeli niz aktivnosti, od “uništavanja” životinja bez vlasnika, spriječavanja gradnje na ulicama, držanje reda u gradu, zvonjenje u određeno vrijeme, osiguravanje Vijeća, provođenje sanitarnih zakona, kontrola prolaza žive stoke, izdavanje dozvola za rad putujućim trgovcima, salonima za biljar i barovima te izdavanje psećih markica. Od tih skromnih početaka, grad je izrastao, s njim i njegove policijske snage. 2006. one broje 343 policajca, četiri specijalna pozornika te 139 civilnih službenika.

      Regina Police Service, formed in 1892, is the municipal police force for the City of Regina. During the late 1890’s, Regina was capital of the Northwest Territories, though not more than a collection of frame buildings and tents. On July 19, 1892 Council approved the appointment and swearing in, four days later, of James Williams, as Regina’s first Town Constable. Williams received a monthly salary of $50 and a free uniform to wear while on duty, while he supplied his own gun. Williams duties included impounding stray animals, preventing street obstructions, keeping the town “toughs” under control, ringing the town bell at appointed hours, waiting on Council, enforcing sanitation laws, controlling roaming livestock, licensing transient traders, billiard rooms and refreshment houses and issuing dog tags. From those humble beginnings, the City of Regina has grown, as has its Police Service. In 2006, the Regina Police Service has an authorized strength of 343 sworn police members, 4 special constables and 139 civilians.
