Controversy swirls as B.C. government conducts detailed polling on Surrey policing

The BC NDP government insists its decision to force Surrey to leave the RCMP and create a new municipal police force is 100 per cent, ironclad, absolutely, immovably final. So why then is it in the middle right now of conducting detailed riding-by-riding polling in the city about whether it made the right call?

Another rationale might be to gather valuable neighbourhood-by-neighbourhood data on the policing issue that the NDP can use for each of Surrey’s 10 provincial ridings. The government is not supposed to use taxpayer funds to do polling for partisan purposes, especially five months before the October provincial election.

“I'm just wondering: why the need to get into that granular, neighbourhood detail, if it's really about the policing for the whole community?”
