Calgary’s police chief unexpectedly resigns; no reason given in announcement
- Mark Neufeld stepped down from his position leading the Calgary Police Service on Friday morning after serving in the role for six years.
- Neufeld's departure surprised many and came despite a contract extension approved in 2023 that would have kept him until 2027, with no reasons disclosed in his resignation letter.
- The Calgary Police Commission promptly appointed Deputy Chief Katie McLellan—who has over 35 years with the service and became deputy chief in 2019—as interim chief effective immediately.
- Neufeld conveyed his appreciation to all CPS personnel, both officers and civilian staff, acknowledging their dedication and hard work in a statement released by the commission.
- The commission plans no immediate search for a permanent chief, focusing first on supporting McLellan through a busy summer including the G7 Summit and ongoing policing priorities.
