The Vancouver Police Department (VPD) is the police force for the City of Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada. It is one of several police departments within the Metro Vancouver Area and is the second largest police force in the province after RCMP "E" Division.
VPD was the first Canadian municipal police force to hire a female officer and the first to start a marine squad.
VPD, along with 11 other BC municipal police forces, seconds officers to the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of British Columbia.
VPD now occupies the former Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (VANOC) building at 3585 Graveley Street, which houses administrative and specialized investigation units.
At the first meeting of Vancouver City Council, Vancouver's first police officer, Chief Constable John Stewart, was appointed on May 10, 1886.
On June 14, 1886, the morning after the Great Fire of 1886, Mayor McLean appointed Jackson Abray, V.W. Haywood, and John McLaren as special constables. With uniforms from Seattle and badges fashioned from American coins, this four man team became Vancouver's first police department based out of the City Hall tent at the foot of Carrall Street. These four were replaced in 1887 by special constables sent by the provincial government in Victoria for not keeping the peace during the anti-Asian unrest of that year. The strength of the force increased from four to fourteen as a result.

VPD Members running the POPAT in full police gear. Not bad boys!
This dirty Vancouver Police Officer is chinese from Hong Kong speaking hindi and he tells Indian (Sikh) people to go back to INDIA, accusing me that i gave him fake ID because I have a mustache in the ID and not now Racist Cop, trying to be a judge. DO YOU WANT HIM IN YOUR COMMUNITY?
It's been nearly 3 years since I ran my last POPAT (this was my last one: https://youtu.be/j4yrty7oVvk). I finally had a chance recently to head over to VPD and get a practice run done, see where I currently stand. The goal: sub 3 min. The result: 2:52. New goal: sub 2:45. If you're someone who needs help with the POPAT test, or the PARE test, contact me at redline.conditioning@gmail.com. I'm located in Surrey, BC and available for both in person training and online training.
