Agreement Number:

3105-23214

Agreement Value:

$46,800.00

Agreement Date:

Mar 28, 2024 - Mar 31, 2025

Description:

This project funds Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation's Policing Needs Assessment, with a final product being a policing needs assessment report. The report will highlight the risks, costs, and benefits for Chippewas of Georgina Island to transition out of its current OFNPA policing model and into either developing its own self-administered police service or joining an existing police service.

Organization:

Public Safety Canada

Expected Results:

The immediate outcome for this project is the development of a policing needs assessment report, headed by MNP. The report will support Chippewas of Georgina Island's transition out of its existing OFNPA policing model and into either creating its own self-administered police service, joining a regional police service, or to continue receiving policing by OPP. The final report will identify challenges with the current service delivery model and utilize them in the overall design of the policing model options available to Chippewas of Georgina Island. The long-term outcome of the project is that as it transitions out of the OFNPA policing model, it creates a policing service that is more responsive to the needs and cultures of the First Nation and Inuit communities they serve.
