Edmonton Police Service chief Dale McFee announces retirement
After five years on the job, Edmonton Police Service chief Dale McFee has announced his retirement.
McFee will retire effective Feb. 21, 2025, according to a Wednesday news release from the Edmonton Police Commission.
McFee was sworn in as Edmonton’s 23rd chief of police on Feb. 1, 2019.
In the coming months, the commission said it will determine the hiring process to select a new chief.
“The commission thanks chief Dale McFee for his dedication, commitment, and many contributions to the EPS and policing in Edmonton,” said a statement from chair John McDougall. “Dale transformed our city’s police service into an organization focused on innovation and delivering policing as an outcome-based public service driven by community safety and well-being.
“As a result, the EPS is now internationally recognized as one of the most innovative police organizations in North America.”
The commission said it hired McFee to lead and transform the police service to become fully committed to innovation, collaboration, partnerships, community approaches, and to building systems that could leverage alternatives to the justice system, where safe and appropriate.
McFee thanked Edmonton for the opportunity to lead the police force.

“Thank you to the commission who set the vision we have delivered on and fought with us through some tumultuous times. Together we have been impatient for progress, but steadfast in a shared belief about the EPS and the community we serve. This support was essential in allowing us to do our critical work,” McFee said.
“I know that everyone at the EPS will continue forward with this good work.”
McFee was the former chief of police in Prince Albert, Sask., and the former president of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. He has also served as the deputy minister of Corrections and Policing in Saskatchewan.
McFee replaced previous police chief Rod Knecht, who served from 2011 to 2019.
The EPS said it will host a media availability following the commission’s public meeting on Thursday.
