The Alberta RCMP is set to welcome new leadership as Assistant Commissioner Trevor Daroux steps into the role of Commanding Officer, following the retirement of Deputy Commissioner Rob Hill.
With more than 36 years of policing experience, Assistant Commissioner Daroux brings a deep knowledge of law enforcement and community safety to the position. He served extensively with both the Calgary Police Service and the RCMP, including time as Deputy Chief of the Bureau of Community Policing in Calgary before joining the RCMP in 2017.
“It is an absolute honour to be appointed the Commanding Officer for the Alberta RCMP,” said Daroux. “The employees that make up the Alberta RCMP are dedicated professionals who serve Albertans with pride every day. I’m grateful to have such committed individuals working with me to help move the safety goals of Albertans forward.”
Daroux currently serves as the Criminal Operations Officer for the Alberta RCMP and previously held the role of Director General of National Crime Prevention and Indigenous Policing Services.

As Commanding Officer, Daroux will oversee nearly 4,200 employees working across 113 detachments, serving more than 1.5 million Albertans. Alberta is the second-largest division within the RCMP.
Deputy Commissioner Rob Hill, who held the position since early last year, announced his retirement last month after 37 years of federal public service.
