Service de police de la Ville de Montreal (Montreal Police Department)
From The RadioReference Wiki
The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) (French for City of Montréal Police Service) is the police force for the city of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. With about 4,400 officers and 1,600 civilian staff, it is the second largest municipal police agency in Canada after the Toronto Police Service and second largest in the province behind the Sûreté du Québec.

Police de quartier
When the MUC took over all policing on the Island of Montréal in the early 1970s, they closed the individual municipal police stations and consolidated services into regional stations. When the individual municipalities were annexed to the City of Montréal in 2002, the new Service de police de la Ville de Montréal went to neighbourhood policing, or police de quartier. In 2006, some municipalities regained their independence, but police services (and fire services) remained centralized under the "agglomeration council". Inependent municipalities are bolded below.

Unit identification
Police units are identified according to their PDQ number (see above), or a number associated with their special unit, and a secondary sequential number from 01 to 99.
The second number identifies a specific unit from a PDQ or special unit. Numbers start from 1 and go up to 99. The unit numbers 85, 86 and 99 are special, they identify coordinating units.
A patrol car from PDQ 49, for example, would be identified visually and on the air as 49-2.

"Intervention units"
A note on riot operations: a set of special units called "groupe d'intervention" (GI) is often deployed during demonstrations or riot situations. They are under the supervision of the "intervention" unit (often 72-85) or the local field commander (for example 21-99). but may be adressed with letters instead of numbers of their station name. Examples:
- A-85, A-86 - heads of riot squad A
- B-1, C-3, H-4 - individual riot police officers
- V-385 - unknown
Most of the contacts are on the CCTI (2) channel, but channels 10, 7, 9 and (rarely) 8 are also used. The communications within a squad is oral or crypted.
