Called to Serve, The PodcastShow Notes
Not every police officer grew up dreaming of becoming one.
As Indigenous History Month comes to a close, we’re sharing Sgt. Julian Klyne’s story of identity, purpose and service.
In this episode of #CalledToServeThePodcast, Sgt. Klyne reflects on growing up in Treaty 1 territory in Manitoba, his complicated relationship with police as a youth and the unexpected path that led him to a career in law enforcement.
From nearly two decades in undercover operations and organized crime investigations to leading our Indigenous Relations Team, Sgt. Klyne shares how his upbringing continues to influence his perspective and the importance of Indigenous representation in policing.
Along the way, he opens up about discipline, spirituality and the lessons he’s learned through a career that has come full circle in ways he never expected.
