BC Government recommends Surrey continue their transition to the Surrey Police Service
The British Columbia government is recommending the City of Surrey continue its transition to the Surrey Police Service, despite the wishes of the new council to revert to the RCMP. The government is citing RCMP staff vacancies as one of the key reasons for not wanting the city to keep the Mounties, saying it ensures public safety for the people of Surrey and throughout BC. The government continued to mention that the decision is not binding, but it has placed several mandatory conditions on the city should it decide to retain the RCMP. Learn more about your ad choices.
