Mr. Speaker, we all have a shared commitment to public safety, but when it comes to indigenous policing, services are chronically underfunded. Indigenous police forces such as those within my riding, the UCCM Anishnaabe Police, Wikwemikong Tribal Police Service, Anishinabek Police Service and the Nishnawbe Aski Police Service, do great work in serving first nations communities. However, there is an urgent need to ensure that negotiations to renew agreements include a healthy increase to core funding. Often, there are only two officers working each shift, and when officers respond to a call in one community they are consistently unable to respond to calls from other first nations. Lately, there has been an increase in homicide, gun, drug and human trafficking-related crimes. First nations police services need more funding to hire more officers and dedicated funding for crime units to better respond to public safety issues so that no community is left unprotected. Today, I ask all parliamentarians to call for increases to core funding and the renewal of first nations policing agreements.
