Elizabeth Popowich looks back at her 25-year career with Regina Police Service
Global News sat down with Popowich to reflect on her time with Regina Police, as well as look at how policing has changed over the last three decades.A: You know, bittersweet is really the perfect word for it because I’m ready to retire. I haven’t made a big deal out of it, but I tell people that I actually am a senior citizen so I can retire. And I’ve come to the end of 25 years with the Regina police service and so it seems like the right time.
A: “You know, it’s tough because the conclusion of an investigation, again, the word bittersweet comes to mind because you can say that we’ve solved it. Someone is charged and will be held accountable in the courts. But you always know that it began with something tragic and traumatic. And so you always have mixed feelings about it.
I would say that some of the things that really stand out for me are probably the cases that are still unsolved because we would like nothing more than to be able to give answers to the families of victims or the families of someone who is missing.”A: “The Regina police service has given me amazing opportunities to learn about my own privilege and how I might take steps to make the world more equitable.
