The highest-paid constable in the London Metropolitan Police Service earns the equivalent of $67,757 per year. In Vancouver, meanwhile, a comparable $64,513 is what a recruit earns in their first year. Base pay for 1st class constable in Ottawa will rise to $100k next year.

But I thought Ottawa had the worst of the worst on their most wanted list. Wouldnt that pay grade account for 'danger pay'?

Every cop in Canada will applaud Ottawa getting to $100K. WhY? because they like every civil service union in the country always point to their own contract vs 'average salaries' as the basis for increments.
They'll do anything to avoid any actual analysis of the value of their work. 'They get more money. therefore I must be underpaid'.

We could at least make do dual duty, as emergency paramedics. Some US jurisdictions do that. They're often first on scene anyway. We could also insist they all get black belts. Police in Japan do that. Maybe they could avoid shooting some people then.
