That with respect to Verbal Report C2022-1280, the following be adopted: Respecting that the Calgary Police Commission review entitled Review of 1997 Police Misconduct Investigation, dated August 18, 2022, clearly states on Pages 1 and 2 that this review COULD NOT: Evaluate whether the criminal investigation and decision not to lay criminal charges were correct. The Commission does not have the legal authority to review criminal investigations. Lay new charges. The Commission does not have the legal power to criminally charge people and only has the power to lay police misconduct charges against the current police chief. Re-investigate and publicly report on the actions of former Constable Sean Chu. Determine former Constable Sean Chus fitness for public office. That Council request the Mayor to share the review document with the Premier and respectfully request that the Government of Alberta determine: whether any further action should be taken in light of the findings outlined in the document; and explain the process of determining what action, if any, should be taken in a manner that is transparent for members of the public that continue to reach out to Calgary City Council about this matter.
