Public Safety Canada, in collaboration with and through recommendations of the Ministère de la Sécurité publique du Québec, is investing to strengthen the physical capabilities of First Nations and Inuit police forces in the Quebec region. This investment is part of the strategy to stabilize police forces under the First Nations and Inuit Policing Program (FNIPP). This strategy was developed to address existing gaps identified by FNIPP agreement holders in the region for their equipment and supply needs, whereas the second phase will support the stabilization of First Nations and Inuit police forces from 2024-25 onwards. The current investment bridges the gap between the two phases by enabling First Nations and Inuit police forces to increase their non-recurring equipment and physical capabilities.
