They’ll fight OPP costing hike

Obscenely high and unsustainable policing costs. OPP bills are destroying communities its officers are supposed to protect. Apparent self-interest is cloaked in the guise of public safety needs. Where is the political outrage while OPP costs continue to climb? Who is going to bring policing costs in this province under control?

They’ll fight OPP costing hike

Postby Thomas » Sat Feb 01, 2014 6:07 am

Hastings County municipalities are fighting a proposed funding formula for the Ontario Provincial Police which they say will increase the cost of policing.

They are worried that the new formula will lead to huge increases in the cost of OPP policing in many, but not all, communities.

Tweed Mayor Joanne Albert says the money will have to be taken from the millions of dollars worth of roads and bridges work that has to be done.

Local officials and many across Ontario intend to raise the issue with cabinet ministers at the Good Roads conference in February.
