Ottawa Police handgun?

OPS issue sidearm
Friends of mine with Ottawa Police tell me the Glock 22 in .40 cal is their current sidearm. I believe but am not 100% on this but I have heard .40 cal was selected as the standard police calibre for all police services in Ontario.Perhaps with the goal of attempting to achieve some type of standardization. Does anyone else have any feedback about this?
Cheers.

I believe that the Ontario Police Services Act allows either 9 mm or .40, Most use .40
 
I heard that the Ontario Provincial Police use Sig P229 .40 cal and some Sig P226 9mm
But i also heard that its mostly female officers using the P226
