EDMONTON — The Alberta government says it will increase the number of officers serving rural communities if the province moves ahead with a plan to replace RCMP policing services with a new provincial police force.
On Tuesday, the United Conservative government released a prospective “deployment” plan that shows how such a force would be distributed around the province and how it would differ from the way the RCMP currently operates.
Tyler Shandro, the provincial justice minister, said the deployment model “shows how an Alberta police service” could make the province safer and bring officers closer to communities.
