IMPORTANT UPDATES
Dedicated RCMP Presence in the Municipality
We are pleased to confirm that an agreement with the Department of Justice and Public Safety for enhanced policing services in the Municipality of Malpeque Bay has been approved.
As part of this agreement, we are happy to announce that our municipality now has a designated RCMP officer. This dedicated presence will help ensure increased safety, quicker response times, and a stronger connection between law enforcement and our community.
Importantly, this new service will be fully covered by a provincial tax credit, which means no additional cost to residents.
We look forward to the positive impact this added support will bring to Malpeque Bay.
