Toronto Police Service mounted unit, winter patrol


Toronto Police Service mounted unit, winter patrol

This is a video of the Toronto Police Service mounted unit, on a typical winter day patrol in the biggest city in Canada. In this particular day the temperature was minus 35 Celcius.

TPS mounted officers are all volunteers, who have a minimum of 5 years of Police experience . They are riding horses that have been purchased by either private citizens , or Toronto sports teams, like the Blue Jays, Maple Leafs, and Toronto Foot Ball Club. The mounted unit covers the whole city, all 240 square miles of it. They do regular policing, as well as parks patrols and crowd and parade events.
