We saw how Calgary Police changed from bright colors to a darker more intimidating tone. This might seem laughable to some but it shows the attitude of police here when they want to be more intimidating than visible. And remember the recent corruption that has come out in CPS leadership.

Just FYI but certain studies have shown that the traditional “black and white” patrol car colours actually stand out more than the plain white cars with decals. Also, in bringing up European police, keep in mind it is common to see them patrolling with sub machine guns on foot in public places. Take the good with the bad, no police service is perfect but for the most part I think Canadian ones do a pretty good job.
