The Medicine Hat Police Commission typically holds open public meetings on the third Wednesday of each month starting at 6:00 PM. The meetings will also be live-streamed.

To enhance transparency and accountability to the citizens of Medicine Hat, the Police Commission welcomes members of the public to attend the Open meetings to hear updates on policing activities and matters concerning community safety.

There is a standing “public consultation” opportunity on the agenda of the open meeting for members of the community to provide their input to the Commission about policing in the community or to ask a question.

During the Public Consultation portion of the meeting agenda, citizens may pose questions or provide brief comments to the Commission directly.  Any questions forwarded to the Commission by the Friday preceding the meeting date will be addressed by the Commission during the Public Consultation session.  Questions from citizens in attendance that were not forwarded in advance will be allowed, however, responses may be deferred to a later date.

Questions from the public can be forwarded to the Chair of the Police Commission, Mr. Paul Carolan, at paul.carolan@mhpc.ca (email) or 403-502-8908 (phone). The written option is preferred as it provides the Police Commission ample time to research the question or concern to provide an informed response.

Please note that complaints about officer conduct and MHPS policies are not topics for this forum as there is a process under the Alberta Police Act for such matters.

Ongoing investigations and personnel matters are not to be discussed in Open Meetings as per the provisions set out in the Alberta Police Act.

Join the Prairie Pride Guild for Trans Day of Remembrance on November 20, from 6-7:30pm at the Medicine Hat Public Library downstairs in the Theatre.

Trans Day of Remembrance is an annual event that aims to honour the memory of the trans people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-trans violence in the past year.

As you enter the library theatre, feel free to grab a seat wherever you are most comfortable. The night will begin with an opening address, followed by a slideshow presentation including the names of all those lost. The slideshow will be followed by a time for silent contemplation before the closing remarks. After the formalities conclude an invitation will be extended for those wishing to stay and partake in coffee or tea, providing a space for those who wish to connect, share, and find support in our community.

If you have a name, picture or remembrance of a trans loved one lost and you would like to share, please DM us and we will include them in the slideshow.
