LETHBRIDGE — It’s a move that will come as a surprise to some. Lethbridge Police Chief Rob Davis has tendered his resignation.
City Council and the Lethbridge Police Commission were notified Monday (July 8) that Davis has accepted a new position in his home province of Ontario, as Police Chief in Brantford.
Davis has held the Chief’s position since January 5 of 2015, to bring an outside perspective to the Service and was given a mandate of change. His initial contract was for four years, with an option for a two-year extension. The police Commission extended Davis’ contract in March of 2018.
Davis, who was the city’s first aboriginal Chief, began his career in 1990, as an Auxiliary Constable with the Haldimand-Norfolk, Regional Police Service in southern Ontario. Over the next 25 years, Davis rose through the ranks, beginning as a Constable on the Six Nations Police Service and also working with the RCMP in Ottawa and with the Nishnawabe Aski Service in northern Ontario. His posting prior to Lethbridge was as Chief of Police in Dryden, Ontario.
