Both guests had no intention of being police officers until they experienced a ride-a-long! Fiona and Angela were hired by Vancouver Police where they started busy and challenging careers but found they wanted to explore options that might give them a better work/life balance. Vancouver Island became an attractive option and the Victoria Police was recruiting exempt (fully trained and experienced) police officers. These members have energy and will entertain the listener with some good stories and fun memories. Anyone considering a career with Victoria Police should take the time to listen to this episode. Fiona and Angela tell their spur of the moment marriage proposal story that took place on a Lanikai Pillbox hike.
*Update* Angela Van Eerd becomes the first ever female elected to an Executive position in the VCPU. Congratulations!
