The Edmonton Police Survice (EPS, also known as The Biggest Gang in the City) has such a reputation for regular misconduct that it was mentioned in a US State Department's annual report on human rights. It stated that Edmonton police were accused of using excessive force when responding to minor infractions in the tourist district and other instances of excessive force. Among other incidents, police allegedly knocked a man to the ground for jaywalking, repeatedly kicked a person for swearing at officers and repeatedly hit a handcuffed person in the face. This type of behavior is extremely common and has become the status quo.

Edmonton Police Watch Edmonton Police Watch is dedicated to monitoring and tracking human rights abuses and misconduct by members of the Edmonton Police Service.
