The Toronto Police Service, was founded in 1834, when the city of Toronto was the first time by the city of York. (Previously, valid local male citizens were required for night duty as special constables for a fixed number of nights per year, or face a fine or imprisonment in a system as a “watch and report known “.)
Toronto Police is one of the oldest English-speaking world of modern urban police departments who are older than, say, the legendary city New York Police Department was in the year 1845 or the Boston Police Department, who in 1839 founded was formed. The Metropolitan Police in 1829 is generally considered the first modern municipal department acknowledged. In 1835, Toronto retained five full-time police ratio of about one for every 1850 citizens. Their daily pay was five shillings for travel service days and 7 shillings, 6 pence, set up for the night service. Pay to police in 1837 was one year to 75 per year, secured a lucrative city if the mayor paid annually from 250 at the time.
1834 to 1859, police in Toronto and a notoriously corrupt politics with the local police force loyal to the mayor, the person appointed in their own police departments for the duration their mandate. Toronto police repeatedly deleted opposition candidate meetings and took part in fierce clashes between the Orange Order and Irish Catholic radical factions in the city. A report by the State Government in 1841 described the Toronto Police as “formidable engines of oppression.” Although police uniforms were issued in 1837, says a contemporary, that the Toronto police, “without uniformity, except in a uniform respecthey been botched.” After an outbreak of violence excessive street with a lack of Toronto police including an episode where the police stood by the Toronto Fire incident in a fight and doing nothing of any other incident enraged firemen burned down visiting circus when its clowns jumped a line at a local brothel, all the Toronto Police with his boss, were released in 1859.
The new force Toronto City Council jurisdiction (except for setting the annual budgets and jobs cut) and under the control of a board appointed by the Province of Police Commissioners. Under the new boss, William Stratton was Prince, a former captain Infantry, standardized training, recruitment and new strict rules of conduct and discipline introduced. now Toronto Police Service directly traces its ethics regulations, the Constitutional Commission and the police line structure of 1859 reforms.
In the 19 century, focusing primarily on the removal of the Toronto Police of the rebellion in the cityarticularly during the Fenian threats of 1860 and 1870. Toronto police were probably Canadian Security Intelligence Service first, when they established a network of spies and informants throughout Canada West in 1864 tried to fight on US military recruiters, British soldiers parked in the Canadian Army in the desert to lead service in the Civil War the Union Army. Police officers in Toronto later turned to spying activities of the Fenians and filed reports to the Chief as far away as Buffalo, Detroit, Chicago and New York. In December 1864, the Canada West secret frontier police was established under Stipendiary Magistrate Gilbert McMicken, some were police officers from Toronto to the new agency.
assigned in 1863, Toronto police were also called “Indian fighters” in the incident Manitoulin Island to be used when some fifty natives armed with knives forced the fishery inspector William Gibbard and a fishery operation to withdraw from unceded tribal lands on Lake Huron. Thirteen armed officers of the Toronto police, along with agents of Barrie, Manitoulin Iceland were sent to help the government to resume the fishing operation, but were forced back when the natives advanced now armed with guns. The police withdrew but later reinforced and eventually arrested, killed the entire group, but not before William Gibbard parts unknown. (Sidney L. Harring White Man’s Law: Native People in Nineteenth-Century Canadian Jurisprudence, Toronto. Osgood Society-University of Toronto Press, 1998, p. 152-153)
In the 1870s, when the Fenian threat began to decrease gradually and the Victorian moral reform movement gained momentum, Toronto police primarily functioned in the role of “urban missionaries “whose job was to regulate unruly and immoral in the” lower classes “. They were almost exclusively on arresting drunks, prostitutes, and violators of Toronto Disorderlies ultra-strict Sunday “blue law” focuses.
In the days before public social services, work as a force for social services mega-agency. Before the founding of the Toronto Humane Society in 1887 and the Children’s Aid in 1891 led the animal to the police and child and youth services, including the application of child support. They ran the ambulance service city and served as a board of health. Police stations were at that time with space to accommodate the homeless designed like no other organization in Toronto deal with this problem. Shortly before the Great Depression, in 1925, the Toronto Police housed 16,500 homeless people this year.
Toronto Police regulated street-level business: taxi drivers, street vendors, corner grocers, tradesmen, rag men, junk dealers, laundry operators. Under public order provisions of the Toronto Police was responsible for the licensing and regulation of dance halls, swimming pool, theaters and cinemas later. He was responsible for the content censored not only theatrical performances and movies, but of all literature in the city of books and magazines, posters and advertising.
labor movements Toronto Police, who were perceived as anarchist threats removed. The creation of the unit is mounted directly to the four-month strike by tram from Toronto in 1886 when the authorities appointed to the Governor General’s Horse Guard Regiment in the repression of the strike.

As a serious criminal investigation, Toronto police often (but not always) with a private detective of Pinkerton Detective Agency by Century 20 Award when it developed its own internal investigation and intelligence capacity.
In the 1930 and 1940, the Toronto Police under Chief Dennis returned “Deny” Draper, a former brigadier-general and former Conservative candidate, its role as an agency to suppress political dissent. His famous “Red Squad” brutally to disperse demonstrations by unions and the unemployed and the homeless during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Suspicious of “foreigners” to put the police in the city of Toronto for a law prohibiting public speeches in languages other than English, the restriction of trade union organization among Toronto vast immigrant populations working in sweatshops happen.
“shot”
After several scandals, including a call by Chief Draper to have reporters and drunk driving arrest, the city in 1948, a new police chief from own ranks ordered for the first time in the history department John Chisholm, Inspector of Police highly capable executives. In 1955, the Board of Metropolitan Toronto Police Chiefs for the merger of 13 police officers in the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto in a police uniform with Chisholm as head of the united force was formed. Unfortunately Chisholm was not the policy of the boss in the office, especially with Fred “Big Daddy” Gardiner who has almost single-handedly developed the formation of Metropolitan Toronto in the 1950s. As Toronto City Police absorbed the surrounding police departments and grew in size and complexity, Chisholm found himself unable to manage large agency, and its Byzantine politics. In 1958, after a series of conflicts with Gardiner and Board of Directors of the newly expanded Metropolitan Toronto Police Commissioners, Chief Chisholm drove to High Park in the West End of town, parked his car and committed suicide with his service weapon. The end of the Staff Superintendent Jack Webster, one of the officers who arrived at the scene of the death of the leader and would be after his retirement in the 1990s, the power of the Toronto Police Museum historian later wrote “Suicide is a partner Standing in each police car. “
With the creation of Metropolitan Toronto in 1954, police in Toronto, January 1, 1957 finally merged with other municipal powers the status of Metropolitan Toronto Police:
