THUNDER BAY - The new chief of the Thunder Bay Police Service says he plans to strengthen relationships both within the service and the community at large, something that's being welcomed by the police association as well as city leadership.
Fleury was announced as the new chief of police during the Thunder Bay Police Service Board meeting on Tuesday. During the transition period with acting police chief Dan Taddeo starting April 17, Fleury said he wants to focus on some of the key issues facing the service, including strengthening relationships with community groups, reviewing the status of recommendations handed down through various reports and inquests, and address some of its internal conflicts.
Colin Woods, president of the Thunder Bay Police Association, said the membership was made aware a new chief was selected and welcomes the news. “One of the points we expressed was the fact we felt it was important we have someone from outside the service become chief,” Woods said. “We needed a fresh start, a fresh face, so this was something we asked for and it’s good to see that they’ve done that."
