Alberta: 

Since 1985, 7 ancillary common law police powers have been generated by trial and appeal courts in Alberta. Pre-existing common law police powers have been deployed by Albertan Courts 101 times.

 

Meanwhile, these courts have declined to generate common law police powers on 7 occasions and declined to deploy pre-existing powers on 187. 

This project would not be possible without the support of the Canadian Bar Association's Law for the Future Fund.
