Canadian Police Clearance for Immigration is handled by RCMP, not by local police. You should visit RCMP website to find out. RCMP is similar to FBI in the US.

CIC states that Canadian PCC is not required unless advised otherwise - therefore you don't have to submit it with your application.

To get PCC from other countries you should check with the embassies. You must include PCCs for ALL countries you have lived, other than Canada, in your application. It is best to include them with initial application or send them before they request. In your case for sure you need one from your home country which is Philippines, if you leave the country after turning 18.

Hmm... then you will have to get the Police Clearance for Philippines and then the Canadian Clearance. But I think for the same fee of $22 you can also get a Criminal Record Check for Calgary while you are getting your fingerprints done. Sometimes on those Criminal Record Check it will say that you don't have criminal record in Calgary and in Canada. The processing time for fingerprints takes a few months to complete so if you get the Criminal Record Check for Calgary done then you can send that with your Philippines Police Clearance while waiting for the fingerprints to be processed. I hope that helps.
