Guardian Angels In Calgary

I haven't heard or read anything about the Guardian Angel chapter in Toronto. Are they still out patrolling the streets? I guess the problems they faced in Toronto are similar to the ones they faced in Calgary and what I find amusing is the reference to the Calgary mayor and a broom. Remember our famous broon?
People got conned into thinking it was going to cleanup city hall and crime but it was never used for those purposes.

The Guardian Angels officially hit the streets and their leader has a simple request to police boss: Let us do our jobs

Maybe, just maybe, the gutless cop brass and thumb-sucking Silly Hall politicians will wake up and take notice.

The red berets hit city streets today. After more than three months of training we have eight brand-new Guardian Angels and one who was with the citizen crime-fighting patrol back in the '80s.

Their beat will initially be the east side of downtown, including C-Train platforms.

Brooklyn-born Curtis Sliwa, who began the Guardian Angels in '79 in the Big Apple, is in town. He was here last year at the request of concerned locals the same day the mayor was on the Sun front page holding a broom and vowing a crime sweep.
