I think in the end, the intent is much less important than the effect. CPS might have a whole list of reasons why they don't think their livery is intimidating, but they are still be swimming upstream when it comes to the practical and psychological effects of black.

Funnily enough, I spelled it color even before I went south. What can I say, I'm a fan of efficiency?

That's one thing that was disappointing to read about that Herald article. Even though they are reviewing the colors, they will only be doing benchmarks against other Canadian/USA forces...who are almost all cut from the same cloth. They should be looking globally to see what works best, not south to a country with perhaps the highest crime rate in the 1st world.
