Cost of Provincial Policing in Bancroft, Ontario Canada

[peterose313 345]

I have a summer cottage in the area of Bancroft, Ontario and while scanning through some of the local news articles in the newspaper up there I came across an interesting article on how the cost of policing is effecting the overall health of the town. Typically this is a population of about 4,000 but explodes during the winter and summer months due to the amount of snowmobilers and tourists/seasonal residents in the area. It also happens to be the Mineral Capital of Canada.

I thought this might be an interesting read for some of the law enforcement people on this forum.
