The Province has established an Auxiliary Program – BC Model Working Group to review options for a long-term BC auxiliary policing program. The Working Group is currently inviting local governments to participate in a short survey seeking to understand community perspectives and preferences related to auxiliary policing. Completed surveys will be accepted until June 25, 2021.
Local governments were first advised of the opportunity to provide input through a May 17, 2021 email from UBCM to all mayors and chairs. A short background document was also prepared to provide additional information regarding the ongoing work of the Working Group, which also includes representatives from the RCMP and local governments.
