Before I get to the topic, I'de just like to introduce myself. I am a 20yr High School Graduate currently waiting for pending University admissions to Criminology courses in Eastern Ontario. I hope to obtain a degree, and begin a career in LE in the next 4-5yrs. That said, I was wondering...
In many Ontario services, officers wear what appears to be external body-armour.
York Regional Police
However, whenever I see a picture of say, the LAPD, all I can see is a uniform with a white shirt!
Los Angeles Police Department
Why would a city like Los Angeles let it's officers go naked into the field? Am I just not seeing the vest under their shirt?

Vest under the shirt. Those exterior vests you see are usually worn where it's cooler. Departmental uniform policy is going to play a part as well.
