Police officers working in downtown Calgary will soon sport a distinctly western fashion accessory: cowboy hats.

    Good idea. A hell of a lot more practical hat.
    Here in BC they can have baseball hats that they wear backwards.

    Yeah, put spurs on their boots too.. Mandatory Burt Reynolds mustache as well.

    I think it's the water supply in Alberta. Too much mercury or something.

    No, they'll probably be the same as the black hats worn by the mounted police. It's kind of a neat idea, it will add a bit of character to the police service.

    Curtman, since you seem a little jealous we decided to get you you're very own hat :

    Water in Calgary is a hell of alot cleaner than Winnipegs.
    It's a symbol of cow town and where the city came from, it's a good idea. They give most of the beat guys hats during stampede anyway (it's like the red river ex only with a rodeo).

    they should create a new event for the mounted cops at the Stampede. Roping fleeing fugitives.

    I suppose you have a problem with the RCMPs traditional uniform as well? Since it points to Canadian Heritage, mainly from the west.

    Just think about it Choban, there's about a 3 million brown trout flushed down the towels daily in Alberta that ends up in their little lake in one form or another. :lol:

    Got a ticket in Calgary once for not wearing a cowboy hat. They should approve 'picking-your-nose-and-eating-it' too since that's how they spend most of their time.
