For today’s Geo Quiz we’re looking for help. Are you fit? Healthy? Interested in a career in law enforcement? And do you have a high tolerance for the cold?
The city we’re looking for can get quite chilly. It’s also looking for recruits for its police force. This city is north of the border — in the Canadian province of Alberta.
It’s the capital of Alberta in fact. The city has about a million residents and the largest shopping mall in North America. But the recruitment drive isn’t for mall cops!
It’s for regular, street-patrolling police officers.
And guess what? Americans can apply too. We’ll tell you more about that — when we unveil the answer in a few minutes.
And we mean that.
For today’s Geo Quiz we asked you which chilly Canadian city was looking for police recruits.
The answer is Edmonton, Alberta.
