A former Calgary police and RCMP officer is assuming command of the Alberta RCMP.
Trevor Daroux is taking over from Deputy Commissioner Rob Hill, who announced his retirement last month.
Daroux, who has 36 years of experience in policing, is the current criminal operations officer for the Alberta RCMP.
He retired from the Calgary Police Service in 2017 – as the deputy chief in charge of the bureau of community policing – before joining the RCMP as director general of national crime prevention and Indigenous policing services.
Daroux called Tuesday’s appointment an “absolute honour” in a news release.
“The employees that make up the Alberta RCMP are dedicated professionals who serve Albertans with pride every day,” he said. “I’m grateful to have such committed individuals working with me to help move the safety goals of Albertans forward.”
Hill, a 37-year federal police veteran, announced his retirement from the force at the end of March.
