#PoliceLaw

Police forces are regularly dealing with ever expanding demands that fall far beyond their traditional law enforcement duties. Increased public scrutiny, members facing criminal charges, officers suffering from mental health issues, the implementation and practical realities of new technologies, and the increased need to share information across agencies are only some of the realities that police services have had to contend with.

Join us at The Canadian Institute’s Conference on The Law of Policing, back in Toronto for the first time since 2013, for two days of balanced, current presentations on the most pressing issues facing police forces, police associations, and the bar. Gain knowledge about best practices and advice on implementing these practices in your organization.

Prepare yourself for taking the stand by attending our pre-conference session The Officer on the Stand: An A-Z Guide to Becoming an Effective Witness. Hear from leading lawyers on what to expect at a hearing, prepare yourself for direct and cross examination, and identify common mistakes to avoid.
