Kim Prodaniuk, who filed a statement of claim against the police chief’s office, the Calgary Police Association and the City of Calgary in March, recently added a 132-page affidavit with details about her time on the force
Calgary Police Service Const. Kim Prodaniuk, photographed at her home in Spring Bank, Alta., Thursday, June 11, 2020, has filed a 132-page affidavit of allegations of police misconduct and sexual harassment with the Court of Queen's Bench.Kim Prodaniuk didn’t plan to be a crusader for change but hopes her lawsuit against the Calgary Police Service alleging harassment and emotional distress will make a difference.
“I see myself as a change agent. I’ve been standing up since 2017 about systemic issues in policing, police brutality, abuse of authority,” Prodaniuk said in an interview with The Canadian Press at her home in Springbank, Alta. “This is the opportunity to fix it. Good cops don’t have the right to remain silent about this any more.”
“The things we see on video that happened are real and these can’t be reduced any more by the police.” “Never in my wildest dreams could I imagine as a police officer I would be in a situation where reporting danger to my police employer could result in consequences to my career and reputation.” “In reality, it was a one-week long course dedicated to entertaining male CPS officers at the expense of female officers’ sexual dignity.”The police service has not filed a statement of defence, but has entered a motion to strike the lawsuit. It says the collective agreement covering officers requires grievances to be filed within 60 days.“I’m not going to talk to you about this particular case because it is before the courts,” he said.
