Note(s):
Use caution in comparing forces: Operational expenditures may vary considerably between police services for many reasons. See “Total operating expenditures” under the “Important notes” section. Use caution in comparing clearance rates among police services. See “Clearance rate (percent)” under the “Important notes” section. For the Royal Canadian Mounted Police municipal contracts: Expenditures include only the cost billed to the municipality and not the total cost of the contract, nor any additional policing costs.
