I just checked with the KPD .... and I was right. They will respond to "excessive noise" complaints at any time .... day or night, don't matter. The copper I was talking to on the phone said that on busy nights (Friday and Saturday) they might be a little slow; but they would be there..... And it gets better: if, in the opinion of the responding officers, the party is out of hand, and they think the party people will not respond to a warning, they shut it down right away. Bonus

I don't know how things are finnanced over there; but our police services are funded from municipal taxes .... every year they present a budget to the Police Services Board (made up of councillors, members of the public, and representatives of the force .... the police force that is, not Jedi Knights) .... what it boils down to is that a portion of the tax I pay to the city goes towards policing .... that means I help pay for policing, and I expect service for the money I put out

I told the copper what went on over there; his response: "You gotta be kidding me"!
