The Executive Director & Chief of Staff for the Toronto Police Services Board, Ryan Teschner, shares with us the role of the Police Board and and its objectives. Whether, to set the priorities, hire the Chief and the Command Officers or set the budget and the plans, it's role encompasses more than that with the objective of offering adequate and effective policing to get the best results for the public.

"The police is doing what is encumbered on all of us as a society to do, and that is to create safe communities. The role of the board, on the other hand, is to build, enhance and repair trust between the public and the police so they can see each other in one another. "- Ryan Teschner
