Police say the charges are connected to allegations dating as far back as January 2015.
Investigators won’t yet say exactly where else Calvert has lived in B.C., but are looking to hear from more potential victims to determine if more charges are warranted.
“We are asking anyone who feels they have information regarding our investigation to contact the Chilliwack RCMP or your local police agency,” Const. Blaine Wiese said in a statement.
Those with information helpful to police can also contact Crime Stoppers anonymously.
Calvert has been released from custody pending an upcoming court appearance on Oct. 9.
