MESSAGE FROM THE CEO
Commissionaires Manitoba has had a busy year. We expanded our identification
services; we received many letters of praise from the public because of the excellent
services that you have provided; we engaged in various community activities including
Project Reindeer; and we have so much more to look forward to in 2010.
Business
This year we promoted our cost and time efficient identification services to various
organizations. From April 2009 to November 2009 we facilitated the processing of
2,986 CPIC Checks and processed 626 Digital Fingerprints! Compared with 995 CPIC
Checks and 367 Digital Fingerprints processed from October 2008-March 2009. This
year our ID guy was kept busy!
We also saw the expansion of our training and consulting services. We worked with two Northern communitiesGarden Hill and St Theresa Point, to identify possible security issues, trained their own people and provided
mentorship for their security people. We continue to offer our services to them and are eager to work with more
First Nations communities in 2010.
Our People
You, Commissionaires are our best advertising and the public has taken notice. In the last six months, two of
our on and off duty Commissionaires were on television!
Tim Klumper, our site supervisor at HRDC, was on CTV for an incident that occurred in August at a car wash.
Tim was at the H2O car wash, washing his bike where he assisted in apprehending a thief.
Recently, Commissionaire Terry LeBlanc while on post at City Hall apprehended a man in city chambers that
was being unruly and had a bottle of kerosene. A CTV camera person happened to be there when the incident
occurred and caught it all on tape.
On a regular basis we have been receiving letters from the public commending our Commissionaires for a job
well done. Your excellent customer service and keen observation skills, as well as your innate willingness to
assist those in need have not gone unnoticed.
The Future
We will continue to grow and expand our lines of business. A new addition to our Mobile Patrol line of business
that we can now provide to our current and future clients is Wired Time. Wired Time is a series of barcodes
placed in strategic locations within a facility. While conducting interior patrols a Commissionaire would scan
the barcodes, which then records the location and time that that particular barcode was scanned. This lets the
customer know exactly when their property was visited.
Commissionaires Manitoba will be participating in a few new community events this year. We will be
sponsoring a Manitoba Moose hockey game honouring the military on March 13, 2010, and we will be a
sponsor for the Air Force Run, May 30, 2010.
We are excited to embark on a new year full of potential to grow, expand and to try new things. Happy New
Year to you and your loved ones- may it be one for the record books!
-Tom Reimer, CEO

MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS
Hi again everyone, can you believe its 2010 already? Wasn’t it just yesterday that
many people in this country were convinced our world as we knew it would come to
an end at 0001, 01 January 2000? Fooled them eh? Regardless, this time of the new
year is a good time to look forward to reinvigorating our organization and business
as we seek to continue to fulfill our Mission Statement, “… to provide excellence in
security and related services to our clients and to create and sustain rewarding work
opportunities…”
One of our means of helping to meet that mission is through the workings of
your Commissionaire Committee (you will find input from them elsewhere in this
newsletter). Essentially, their purpose is to facilitate communication between individual Commissionaires and
the Division leadership. To do that effectively the committee needs your support, particularly as an active
member of their team.
The election of new members to the committee is coming up in March. If you would like to volunteer to serve
or nominate someone for this “volunteer committee” please submit those nominations in writing to the Human
Resource Manager, Peter Paterson, no later than 19 February 2010. We will contact all nominees to see if
they are willing to serve before publishing the final list in March for your consideration and voting. There will be
more to follow on the process to vote but for now please consider membership on the committee as a way you
can contribute to helping meet our mission statement. We can always use additional interested members!
The new year also brought the departure of one of your Division office staff members.
John Egdell has been with the Division since November 1997. Hoss (as he is better
known) has decided to fully retire and head back east. He has been here in the office
since 1999 and most recently managed our Identification Services section where he was
probably the busiest man in the organization. We wish him all the best in his retirement.
Hopefully the Leafs won’t disappoint him!
Hoss has been replaced by Mike Forrest as the result of a competitive process we ran late
in the fall. Mike has been in place since November 2009. If you are in the vicinity come
by and say hello. You might even recognize him as one of our two “movie stars” from our
advertising material for home and mobile patrols!
Hoss
I’m sure 2010 will bring new opportunities for many of you as we continue to strive to identify new clients for
you. As I’ve said to every initial training course for the past year, each of you are our best means of recruiting
new members and clients. We can spend a lot of money, time and effort to attract new business and new
Commissionaires but that is never as effective as the outstanding conduct and performance of our existing
members and satisfaction levels of our clients. Please join us in broadcasting our message in these areas to a
wider audience by continuing your excellent performance wherever you are representing the Corps.
Finally, I extend to each of you the very best wishes for a personally satisfying and rewarding New Year. Take
care of yourselves and your families.
-Bob Chmara, Director of Operations

Musician Writes Special March
After years playing with the Naden Band and a lifelong history with music, 70-year-old retired PO1 Ken
Garland wanted to show his love for the navy by composing a march for the band to play during the navy
centennial.
On May 4, 2010, the streets of Victoria will buzz when
the Naden Band leads the Formation on a freedom of the city parade.
During this celebration, they will play
"Carry On", the march created exclusively for them.
"With the 100th anniversary of the
Canadian Navy, I wanted to give the
Naden Band their very own signature
tune," said PO1 (Ret'd) Garland. "My
pride for the navy and love for the
Naden Band inspired me to compose
this piece."
The three-minute march begins with a strong, tough
bass-like section and an upbeat melodic counter-melody denoting happiness. Then the unification is disrupted as the trio section denotes memories of hesitant
thoughts, before the march picks up with the happy
sounds of the original five beat drum roll used in the
navy.
"Composing to me is a lasting message coming from the heart," says PO1
(Ret'd) Garland. "When I hear my
compositions played it often brings
tears to my eyes because I see the
memories associated with creating the
piece."
When Naden Band Commanding
Officer and Director of Music Lt(N)
Robert Byrne received the new march,
he welcomed it. "This march symbolizes that tradition of excellence which

it during the Victoria Day Parade."
On his 70th birthday last February, he finished composing the march, which holds a dual meaning. It honours the journey of the Naden Band, from being axed
due to budget cuts in 1994, and then being resurrected
four years later. “Carry On” tells the story of the pride
and strength of the original Naden Band, its survival
through unification, and the continuation of the band
to current times with the Canadian Navy and Maritime
Forces Pacific.

While “Carry On” was created solely for the Naden
Band, PO1 (Ret'd) Garland also composed another
march to be played by other military bands during
the centennial. "Up Spirits" is also a dedication to the
navy centennial that can be played by bands across
Canada and by other navies visiting for the centennial. "I've sent it to U.S., Australia, New Zealand and
Japanese navies and hope that they play it during our
centennial celebrations," said PO1 (Ret'd) Garland.

in June to partake in the various celebrations including
the Naden Band's 70th reunion. "The hotel is already

Through the years he's marched in the May Day parade more than 20 times and he plans to see the Naden
Band perform his march during the centennial, he
says. He'll likely enjoy local celebrations in Winnipeg

WHAT’S NEW
What are Post Inspections?
Your dispatch team is responsible for conducting post inspections at our various federal and commercial sites.
All sites are to be inspected at least twice per year but can be done more frequently if required. When we inspect
your site, we will be checking for:
•Your post orders to ensure that they are current;
•That you have your Manitoba security guard license with you;
•That your dress and deportment meet our policy standards; and
•Discuss with you any problems or concerns that you may have.
If we cannot provide you with the necessary information, we will ensure that either your business manager or
someone else in the Division office can get back to you.
We enjoy visiting our sites and meeting with our Commissionaires. Don’t be surprised if we bring out coffee
and donuts with us and enjoy a nice visit with you.

WHAT’S NEW
Shilo IPSC Visit
On November 18, 2009, I, along with our Director
of Operations, Bob Chmara and CWO Brad Ball,
site supervisor, visited and were given a tour of the
Integrated Personnel Support Centre (IPSC) in CFB
Shilo. IPSC is one of several national support centres
that will operate under a single national CF unit
headquartered in Ottawa known as the Joint Personnel
Support Unit (JPSU).
The IPSC Shilo provides a variety of services in one
location to ill and injured regular and reserve force
members, veterans and their families living within
western Manitoba, as well as the southern portion of
the province of Saskatchewan.
The mandate of the IPSC is to “improve the quality
of care and services provided to ill and injured CF
personnel while ensuring a high standard of care
and support nation-wide.” The aim is to reduce the
potential that a CF member “falls through the cracks”
and to assist personnel in recovering, rehabilitating
and reintegrating them, either back into CF life or life
as a civilian. One of the reintegration services that the
IPSC provides is, the Return to Work (RTW) program
using RTW Coordinators.
The main focus of the RTW Coordinator is to assist in
the design of a modified work plan that benefits both
the individual and the unit. They are also responsible
for: co-chairing the RTW Committee and providing
statistics to Ottawa to ensure proper funding is
allotted. They work hand-in-hand with the Regional
Adaptive Fitness Specialist, 11 Health Services and
the units to ensure open and effective communication.
CF members who are in RTW programs are
considered to be on military duty, even if they are
posted to civilian positions. These individuals are still
subject to the military Code of Service Discipline and
their salaries are paid entirely by the Canadian Forces.
Commissionaires Manitoba envisions our relationship
with the IPSC’s to be one which supports our proud
history of providing meaningful employment for
veterans. It is our division and Commissionaires
Canada’s intent and hope, that we will work together
with the IPSC to place CF members who are in RTW
programs alongside our Commissionaires. However,
it is important to note that no Commissionaire
positions will be lost because of this program.
Rather, CF members who are in RTW programs will
supplement our members. This program will benefit
Commissionaires Manitoba, the Canadian Forces and
its members.
If you are interested in the services of the Shilo IPSC,
please contact Denise Andries, services coordinator, at
Bldg L-106 Room 40, Local 3092 (CSN 258-3092) or
e-mail her at [email protected].
John Chabih, services coordinator from IPSC 17 Wing
is also available to provide you with information. He
can be reached by phone, 204-833-2500 local 6300 or
by e-mail, [email protected].
To reach other IPSC offices, please contact your local
Military Family Resource Centre.

PERSPECTIVE
A Day At New Flyer
Some of you have wondered, “What’s it like to work
at the New Flyer site?” Well this is a site where all
of your skills will be tested. Everything from what
you were taught on your qualifying course to your
computer skills; to your life skills are all brought into
play here at New Flyer every day.
New Flyer manufactures a wide range of urban
transit buses and parts, and ships its products in many
different forms across Canada and the USA. All
shipments must comply with USA regulations, and
this is where security comes into play.
As a security officer you must watch that all policies
and procedures are being followed. When we’re on
patrol and we observe that a variance has occurred we
report our findings into a database reporting system or
send an e-mail to the appropriate New Flyer employee.
We also have many of the same type of duties as other
sites, but magnified due to the sheer size of the New
Flyer property which is huge!
We operate out of a guardhouse where we:
•Control all traffic in and out of the plant at
three gates, check ID cards, conduct vehicle and
employee bag searches;
•Monitor fire alarm panels, burglar alarm
systems, bypass alarms on doors as required and do
an ongoing check of the plants safety systems;
•Greet and meet many very important people
from all over the world. When guests arrive they
must be directed to the appropriate meeting place,
given ID cards, issued safety equipment and
directed to where they can park;
•Conduct plant patrols, office patrols, and we
issue parking tickets while on parking lot patrol.
These are an in-house ticket, but they are recorded
into individual files and they count towards further
disciplinary action if required.
This can all be challenging and are only a few of the
reasons that we have five to six days of on-the-jobtraining (OJT). We must also attend an orientation
and safety training day with a New Flyer Health and
Safety Officer before anyone can start to work.
Now you know more about the New Flyer site, it’s a
unique site and we are proud of it!

Pay Office Corner
Accuracy of Your Pay Statements
It every employee’s responsibility to review
his / her pay statements to ensure the information
is accurate. This includes verifying your income,
deductions and taxable benefits amounts.
Examples of errors could include timesheet
errors, input errors, etc. In the case of transfers,
employees may not be paying the correct amount
for LTD insurance or being assessed an incorrect
taxable benefit as part of their annual income for
tax purposes.
Therefore, always review your pay statements and
contact the pay office immediately if you discover
any discrepancies. We are always available to
assist you in ensuring all information on your pay
statement is accurate.

PERSPECTIVE
Commissionaires Committee
The Commissionaires Committee was formed in 2008
in its present structure. Since that time we have been
working diligently “to advance the concerns of all
Commissionaires”.
A formal mission statement has been finalized. It
is “the mission of the Commissionaires Committee
to serve as a means of communication between
individual Commissionaires and the leadership of
Commissionaires Manitoba in order to:
•provide a forum to assist both the Division
office and Commissionaires in assessing members’
needs and welfare as impacted by Division policies
and procedures;
•help provide excellence in security and related
services to our clients and to sustain rewarding
work opportunities for our Commissionaires; and
We have also received confirmation, (as stated
in our HR Manual, Dress Regs) to allow us to
supplement required dresss with civilian clothing.
Commissionaires that patrol outside in the winter (in
Shilo temperatures can approach the -40˚c mark) may
wear appropriate civilian attire such as wind pants and
winter boots that are conservatively colored. We, in the Commissionaires Committee are interested
in and are resolved to make changes happen for the
betterment of all Commissionaires. Come for a visit or
call your Committee Representative and see what we
can do for you. We can have a coffee or chew the fat.
You might be surprised at what we can and are willing
to do!
Since our inception we have been attempting
to address and resolve issues of concern to all
Commissionaires. Although confidentiality prevents
discussion of ongoing issues; we can relate some of
our successes.
If you’re a more hands-on kind of person, contact us
to join the Commissionaires Committee. Currently, we
consist of 4 members, however, we would like to grow
in numbers with more Commissionaires participating.
If you feel that you would like to help yourself and
other Commissionaires, join our Commissionaires
Committee! Feel free to contact any Committee
member or our Human Resources Manager, Peter
Paterson. We meet once a month and are reimbursed
for our time and the rewards are personally
tremendous. The Commissionaires Committe has been working
with the Corps to obtain weather appropriate clothing
for Commissionaires who are required to perform
outdoor duties. Living in Manitoba, we are all
aware of the unique weather conditions that we can
experience. “In extreme temperatures, safety does
come first,” says Director of Operations, Bob Chmara.
Your Commissionaire Committee Representatives;
George Osicki, Rose Small, Bruce Taylor and Brien
Buie, can be reached confidentially either through
email ([email protected]) or by mailing a
sealed and marked envelope, (CONFIDENTIALCommissionaires Committee, 50 Stafford St.,
Winnipeg MB R3M 2V7). Rain suits are currently on a trial basis at various
locations due to several reasons and have been issued
to members that must patrol outside at selcted sites.
Your Commissionaires Committee is confident that the
trial will prove successful and rain suits will become
available to all Commissionaires that require them to
perform their exterior duties at their sites. -Commissionaire Brien Buie, Commissionaires

Post Project Reindeer
For over a month Commissionaires collected
donations to create care packages for our troops
serving overseas during this past holiday season. Our
project seemed to tug a cord with the public and the
media. I received various calls from Commissionaires
and the public inquiring on how they could help with
this initiative.
Assiniboia Christian Centre and Charleswood Senior
Centre both participated in our project by promoting it
internally and collecting donations.
In October I participated in a 2 minute interview done
by Shaw TV and it aired for one week, several times
a day. We were also mentioned in various community
billboard postings in print and on TV.
Collecting and assembling the donations took the most
amount of time and effort. Once all the donations were
picked-up they needed to be sorted and categorized.
The most popular items that we collected were:
soap, popcorn and granola bars. Division office staff
helped to pre-package the donations (which made the
assembly process a lot easier and more organized), and
helped to assemble the individual care packages.
Town Shoes, a shoe store in Polo Park helped by
supplying shoe boxes for us to put the collected
donations in. We assembled over 50 individual
packages, each containing a toiletry bag, snack bag
as well as other goodies. The communal packages
included a bunch of our pre-assembled treat and
toiletry bags as well as DVD’s, books and batteries.
The communal boxes were intended to go to Canada
House which is an entertainment house for all the
Canadian troops in Kandahar.
Once the packages were ready for shipment we sent
them to 12 Canadian Forces members, whose names
were given to us by Commissionaires and the public.
We also sent packages to three Commissionaires who
are currently on post in Afghanistan.
Project Reindeer was a rewarding project and I think
everyone who got involved feels the same way. Thank
you to all who helped to make this project a success!
-Velangeline Ferrigno, Marketing and
Communications Specialist
Greetings from Kandahar Afghanistan
This morning I was the happy recipient of an unexpected care package from the Commissionaires and
friends from the Manitoba Division. It was a wonderful pick-me-up on a dreary, gloomy, dusty, cool morning. As you can imagine, thoughts of the Christmas season and missing time with family and friends has
been weighing heavily on everyone here these past few days.
I very much appreciated receiving the gift, but also knowing that “fellow Commissionaires” are thinking of
those of us who are away means a lot. I also enjoyed the fact that I was able to share the treats with some
of my co-workers who have been feeling a bit blue as well.
Thank you so much for your kindness and for the warm wishes from Canada.
Best regards and Merry Christmas to you all!

Assiniboine Park Pavilion
A highly visible work site for Commissionaires
Manitoba is securing the Assiniboine Park Pavilion.
There have been great changes that
took place in the last few years
at this site and this past summer
alone there were over 36 outdoor
performances that took place
under our area of responsibility
with audiences as high as 7,000
people in attendance! The Pavilion
building was also center stage
for an estimated 100,000 people
coming out for Canada Day to see
the largest fireworks in Canada!
Approaching the end of 2009, the
Pavilion Gallery Museum’s art collection grew in
size and in value due to the addition of various art
collections and exhibitions.
Our security team is always there
and in December the Pavilion
hosted close to 100 Christmas
parties which we proudly secured
for our clients tenant restaurant.
We were also present this past New
Year’s Eve securing a good time
for all the party goers and wishing
everyone health, happiness and
prosperity into 2010.

Range Control CFB Shilo
The position at Range Control, CFB Shilo is a
24/7, 365 days a year operation. The job consists
of controlling access to the ranges by land and air,
plotting people, military and civilians on a map.
The training range is a vast 96,000 acres and has many
different sectors where all sorts of ammunition is fired,
from bombs to hand grenades! We have to keep track
of where live fire is coming and going by adding and
removing LIVE FIRE weapons range safety traces
both land and air as needed.
These safety traces (lights on a map indicating live fire
happening in a particular sector) allow us to pass on
information to people concerned, as to where it is safe
to go out on the range. Additionally, we monitor three
ground radio frequencies and two aircraft frequencies,
making sure we know where people are and where
live fire is happening at all times.
It is not unusual to have multiple ranges shooting, with
up to 4 different types of aircrafts involved at the same
time. The primary concern at all times is SAFETY.
The job also involves:
•Monitoring a weapons alarm system;
•Gate control;
•Dispatching the Range Control fire trucks;
•Calling for an ambulance when required;
•Issuing keys;
•Transferring calls from range phones to base
locals; and
•Logging all pertinent information into the
Range Control safety log.
Working at Range Control at CFB Shilo is an
interesting place to work, one which I enjoy.
