FSIN, RCMP sign agreement

FSIN Vice Chief Bobby Cameron and RCMP Assistant Commissioner “F” Division Russ Mirasty sign a three-year Public Safety Cooperation Protocol agreement, establishing trust and reciprocal relationships between First Nation communities and the RCMP. The goal is to build safer communities for the residents and the RCMP members who work in those communities. “The federation, through its Special Investigations Unit, intends to resolve disputes at the First Nation community level when possible, and to prevent incidents that can potentially escalate into formal complaints. In this way, First Nations become part of the solution and are more responsible for the safety within their own communities,” said Cameron.
