Look it up on Google Maps. This isn't a small town - it's a straight up suburb of one of the biggest cities in the United States (top 20 metropolitan areas, population 2.9 million)

In terms of having their own police force, New Westminster is a small town. Now I've never heard anything negative (in fact I've seen one do something that was pretty cool) about their police but they would have a certain latitude to run things as they see fit, which is a small town privilege or not depending on your situation.
I guess if I was a cop with all these free toys, I'd be tempted to try them out as well. Time to take away some of these toys.
