Normally they might be handing out tickets or on patrol, it isn’t often police officers act as personal shoppers – but that is exactly what happened at the first ever CopShop in Regina.
Twenty officers came off patrol to partner with Regina’s inner city kids at the Cornwall Centre.
Each child received a lunch, a $200 gift card donated by the Cornwall Centre, a stocking filled with personalized items, time with Santa and a new winter coat provided by Sears.
Constable Jim Monaghan hopes it gives them the chance to see the officers in a whole new light.
“It is neat to see the kids go out shopping like this when they might not normally,” Monaghan said.
Monaghan was partnered with 11-year-old Tallon Quewezance, who bought a new computer game and handheld system, “I want a Yo-kai Watch, it is like a spirit”.
The 20 kids were chosen by the Police Chief based on financial need and achievement.
CopShop takes place every year in most of Canada’s biggest cities.
